Overview
FluXus Animation Film Festival (FAFF) is a one-day animation festival organized by FluXus, the arts center in Zaandam, and held at filmtheater De Fabriek. It is notable for its audience-voted awards and for programming international animated short films for both children and adults, including Benelux selections, with a strong emphasis on short, recent work and accessibility to mixed-age audiences. In the Dutch animation scene, it has been presented as the first and only animation film festival for adults and children in the Zaanstreek, giving it a distinctive regional profile within the broader film festival circuit.[1][2][3]
