    ŽILINA: We Can't Live Without Cosmos by Konstantin Bronzit has won the Anča Award at the 8th edition of Fest Anča International Animation Festival (24-28 June 2015). 

    The festival organized again a competition for Slovak films and a pitching forum for short films, feature films and animation series which was won by the short film project The End/Koniec by Dávid Štumpf.

    As a rule, the festival organizes a competition only for short films and videos, and the feature films are screened out of the competition. The sidebar also included World Panorama, Jiri Barta and Rein Raamat profiles, Golden Years of Estonian Animation, The Great War – Animated Memories, Best of Nukufilm Studio, workshops, masterclasses, concerts and three industry days. Tomm Moore and Jiri Barta were special guests of the festival.
