UW Cinematheque - Premieres

ME, the latest short animated film from two-time Academy Award nominee Hertzfeldt, is an all-new musical odyssey. ME (2024, 22 min.) will be followed by It’s Such a Beautiful Day (2012, 71 min.), the feature-length tale of a man named Bill who, faced with dark and troubling events, confronts the meaning of life. #12 on Vulture’s list of “Best Movies of the Decade,” It’s Such a Beautiful Day is a masterful hybrid of hand-drawn animation and experimental optical effects.
