This nomination marks a significant milestone for us, as Mavka has traversed a long and illustrious journey alongside Cartoon Movie.
It all began here in Bordeaux in 2017 when we introduced the concept of this animated feature to an international audience. MAVKA subsequently became the first Ukrainian project to be selected for pitching at Cartoon Movie and remains the sole representative from Ukraine to this day.
The wreaths, meticulously crafted by Lesya Patoka, and the dresses, skillfully created by Navro specifically for this occasion, were etched into the history of this event, serving as a testament to our team's creativity and dedication.
Now, in 2024, following a highly successful worldwide theatrical release, we find ourselves competing against the best European productions.
The winners will be determined by the votes of over 850 industry professionals attending the 26th edition of Cartoon Movie, to be held in the picturesque French city of Bordeaux from March 5th to 7th.
