ABOUT THE FILM
Conceived and directed by Chris Williams (who made his feature directing debut this year with Disney's animated comedy-fantasy "Bolt"), "Glago's Guest" follows the intriguing and thought-provoking story of a lonely Russian soldier stationed in a remote Siberian outpost. When the soldier's solitude is interrupted one day by the arrival of a strange new "guest," Glago is jolted out of his uneventful daily routine but soon comes to realize that things aren't always what they appear to be. With its bold art direction, stark but stylish depiction of the frozen Russian landscape, and inspired computer-animation, "Glago's Guest" is an exciting, entertaining, and original short film that uses the medium to full advantage.
The short has been nominated for four Annie Awards in the categories of:
Best Animated Short Subject
Andy Harkness for Production Design in an Animated Television Production or Short Film
Chris Williams for Storyboarding in an Animated Television Production or Short Film
Chris Williams for Writing in an Animated Television Production or Short Film
