The big, glorious past and troubled recent development of the Holland Animation Film Festival (artistic director Gerben Schermer had to step down due to creative differences) led to the cancellation of its 2018 edition. But, now it seems that the other Dutch festival, KLIK Amsterdam, has come to its revitalization.

Under its new artistic director, Aneta Ozorek (appointed in February 2018), KLIK! Amsterdam announced it had merged with HAFF, and the effect will take effect immediately with the 2019 edition

More details will be announced during the opening of the KLIK Amsterdam festival (10 Oct).

KLIK Amsterdam artistic director Aneta Ozorek comments to Zippy Frames that the first programme announcement will be ready at the beginning of 2019. The festival team "will work towards this exciting project in the autumn of 2019" - which implies an autumn date for the new Dutch animation festival.

Story originally reported by Peter Schavemaker, edited by Zippy Frames team. The 11th edition of KLIK Amsterdam takes place 10-14 October 2018.
