The Debutante to premiere at Annecy Festival

We are thrilled to share that Elizabeth Hobbs’ latest animation The Debutante will premiere at Annecy 2022 in the Short Films Competition.
A spirited young woman persuades a hyena from London Zoo to take her place at a dinner dance held in her honour. Their plan requires a surprising amount of artistry and violence. Based on a story by artist Leonora Carrington, Elizabeth Hobbs celebrates her startling tale with paint and collage.
In celebration of this news, we are sharing the film’s trailer to give you a taste of what’s in store.

The Debutante is a film by Elizabeth Hobbs, produced by Animate Projects, with the support of the BFI, awarding funds from the National Lottery, and with thanks to the Estate of Leonora Carrington.
