, an annual event dedicated to the promotion of animation in Spain, Portugal and Latin America, saw a triumph for Portuguese cinema, with animations from the country taking home four of the nine awards.
The film, a Praça Filmes production, is a moving depiction of three generations of Angolan women grappling with the aftermath of the civil war that devastated their country in the late 20th century. Ribeiro’s first feature, “Nayola,” which premiered in main competition at the Annecy Animation Festival in 2022, is based on the play “A Caixa Preta” by Eduardo Agualusa and Mia Coutode.
In the short film category, “The Garbage Man,” by Laura Gonçalves, took top honors. This Portuguese 2D animated piece shines an affectionate light on the spirit of a life as a family fondly recollect a loved one, in this case the filmmaker’s late uncle Manel Botão.
