БЪЛГАРСКОТО АНИМАЦИОННО КИНО – ВЪЗРАЖДАНЕ НА НАЙ-ДОБРИТЕ ТРАДИЦИИ?
През последните почти тридесет години често сме говорили за българското кино като за регионално, периферно изкуство, което изостава и диша праха на съвременните чужди творби по международните кинофестивали. За радост, ситуацията започна рязко да се променя. Пише специално за „въпреки.com” проф. Надежда Маринчевска от Института за изследване на изкуствата, БАН по повод VІІІ Международен фестивал на анимационния филм „Златен кукер - София“. СТАТИЯ
