Future Vision Festival celebrates unusual animation, showcasing animated treasures of all shapes and sizes from every corner of the world. The festival curates annual screenings and exhibitions in Japan and The Netherlands and broadcasts weekly on SALTO1 TV Amsterdam. These films transmit a gamut of themes direct from the zeitgeist of today's animation makers worldwide.

Future Vision Festival is het vreemde nooit te vreemd, ze verzamelt wereldwijd voor ieders kijkplezier allerhande vormen van geanimeerd werk. Met jaarlijkse vertoningen en tentoonstellingen op eigen bodem, in Japan en met wekelijkse programmering op SALTO1 TV Amsterdam!

フューチャー・ビジョン・フェス ： 異色のアニメ映画祭
日本とアムステルダムのライブ会場、オンライン、SALTO 1 TV で放映されます。 このアニメーション達はあらゆる想像力が組み合わさって出来ています。新旧のジャンルやスタイル、テクニックなどが時には曲がりくねって、時には混ざり合って私達の元へ届きます。そこには世界中のアニメーターが感じている近年の時代背景が直に反映されているのです。 彼らの作風は異色ではありますが、故に無視できません。

FUTURE VISION FESTIVAL - Heroes
Who’s the Hero and who’s the Villain? Sometimes it’s impossible to know. In Ishiro Honda’s original Godzilla, 1954, the baddies were the Americans. But in the US version they are depicted as being the Heroes - come to save the day! So, in 1954, depending on where you saw Godzilla, sometimes the Americans were the villains - sometimes they were the heroes! It’s one of those “go figure” things…. Who precisely is the hero and who is the villain? One man’s ceiling is another man’s floor. I know, let's be our own heroes !

FUTURE VISION FESTIVAL - WTF!? Part Three
Future Vision Festival pampers you all over with the fragrance of Spring flowers from a country garden. Future Vision Festival, what the World used to smell of before we all went mad.

FUTURE VISION FESTIVAL - WTF!? - Bento Banana
An animated web series about a talking artificially intelligent banana and his eggplant sidekick existing within a procedurally generated anime that appears to be mysteriously glitching. With the progression of the series the themes move from the absurdity and conventions of anime into existential questions about the nature of reality, the role of AI in art, Capitalism and how much of ourselves exist within our animated creations.

FUTURE VISION FESTIVAL - WTF!? Part Two
How do you feel? You don't really know how you feel. Why? Because you haven't been watching Future Vision Festival. Here are expressions in the new dimension of honesty, purity and feeling. Future Vision Festival. Watch now on SALTO.

FUTURE VISION FESTIVAL - WTF!? (Part one)
What are you doing? Watching television. What channel? SALTO. What show? Future Vision Amsterdam. What's the capital of Lesbos? I don't know!? Welcome to the Future Vision Zone.

FUTURE VISION FESTIVAL - The Sea
O mind your feet, O mind your feet,
Keep dancing like a wave,
And under every dancer
A dead man in his grave.
No ups and downs, my pretty,
A mermaid, not a punk;
A drunkard is a dead man,
And all dead men are drunk.

FUTURE VISION FESTIVAL - Love Stories
The weight of the world
is love.
Under the burden
of solitude,
under the burden
of dissatisfaction

the weight,
the weight we carry
is love.

Japan is a nation that has always excelled in animation. Both strong in tradition and at the cutting edge of innovation the work of Japanese animators continues to astonish. Future Vision Festival proudly presents a selection of films from some of the very best of Japanese independent creators.

FUTURE VISION FESTIVAL - Unheard Voices
Aren't you sick and tired of the same old voices saying the same old stuff? It's so refreshing when we get to hear from people we don't usually. Here is a selection of films from Unheard Voices.

Most stories usually consist of a beginning middle and end, but not always. Most stories have a narrative arc, but not all of them. Most stories make sense, but not these ones.
Welcome to the Non-Narrative Zone.

FUTURE VISION FESTIVAL - Moving Paintings Part Two
This time on Future Vision Festival we present a range of films we call Moving Paintings. In these shorts narrative, plot, even form itself can take a secondary place in favour of simply delighting the eye. Perhaps these Moving Paintings are animation at it's purist.
