Four animated feature films from Poland, Hungary and Estonia have been selected for the 14th edition of Cartoon Movie, the European co-production forum for feature-length animation that will take place in Lyon 7-9 March 2012

Polish animation is represented by two projects: Pelican, a puppet animation by debuting director Magdalena Osinska, and Another Day of Life, an adaptation of journalist Ryszard Kapuscinski's book on the Angolan civil war and child soldiers. Combining live action and animation, the film will be co-directed by Cartoon d'Or 2011 award finalist Damian Nenow and produced by Platige Image (www.platige.com).

Estonia sends Morten on the Ships of Fools, a puppet animation in stereoscopic 3D by director Kaspar Jancis, winner of the Cartoon d'Or 2010 (Krokodill), who adapts his own children's book; Hungary sends Over Splodge Hill, a Stúdio Baestarts (www.studiobaestarts,com) production directed by József Sándor.

A total of 50 projects will be pitched at Cartoon Movie.
