is responsible for now-iconic works such as Les Triplettes de Belleville (2003) and L\u2019Illusionniste (2010). His instantly recognisable style combines extraordinary visual elegance with subtle humour and a melancholy that runs through all his stories, creating singular worlds inhabited by endearing characters, evocative music and a sophisticated animated craftsmanship.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout his career, he has received top-tier international recognition. Les Triplettes de Belleville was nominated for two Academy Awards \u2014 Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song \u2014 and has become one of the most celebrated works of European animation. The film was also nominated for BAFTA Awards and won several C\u00e9sar Awards, including Best Music. L\u2019Illusionniste, meanwhile, received an Academy Award nomination for Best Animated Feature and won the European Film Award for Best Animated Feature, further reinforcing the director\u2019s international prestige. In addition, his works have been selected at major festivals such as Cannes, Annecy and Toronto.<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, Chomet has further expanded his artistic reach with high-profile projects. Among them is his memorable couch gag for The Simpsons, premiered in the episode \u201cDiggs\u201d (Season 25), which showcases his versatility and cultural influence, as well as the animated short created as the opening sequence of the film Joker: Folie \u00e0 Deux (Todd Phillips, 2024). This piece, produced over ten months by a team of around fifteen professionals at Picture Box \u2014 the studio founded by Chomet himself \u2014 is conceived with a comic tone and a style inspired by classic Looney Tunes, reinforcing the dialogue between animation and large-scale contemporary cinema.<\/p>\n<p>His contribution to contemporary animation is profound and far-reaching: Chomet represents the excellence of European auteur animation, combining traditional craftsmanship and modernity, humour and emotion, formal experimentation and thematic universality. His cinema has left a deep mark on the collective memory of audiences, becoming an essential reference for those seeking adult, poetic and sophisticated animated cinema.<br \/>IMAXINARIA thus celebrates his career and welcomes him as Festival Patron 2026, paying tribute to a trajectory that continues to enrich the path of animation worldwide.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-785cf3e e-grid e-con-full e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"785cf3e\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2cb8a41 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"2cb8a41\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-100688d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"100688d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Retrospective<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-768ec91 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"768ec91\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">La vieille dame et les pigeons<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-97e3504 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"97e3504\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;youtube_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube.com\\\/watch?v=d0PioYGdLI4&quot;,&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;youtube&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-video\"><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-66234d7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"66234d7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Sylvain Chomet\u00a0 |\u00a0 23 min \u00a0|\u00a0 UK\u00a0 | \u00a01997\u00a0 | \u00a0+12<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f4d6383 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f4d6383\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>La vieille dame et les pigeons immediately consolidated Chomet\u2019s international reputation.

Convinced that this could be his way out of hunger, he decides to disguise himself as a giant pigeon to join the feast. What follows is a visual satire full of black humour, social criticism and absurd situations, built with very little dialogue and an expressionist aesthetic that already anticipates Chomet\u2019s auteur style. The short combines theatricality, cartoon rhythm and a gaze that is at once cruel and delicate on urban loneliness and the desire for survival.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e1267d3 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"e1267d3\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cb27bab elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"cb27bab\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Retrospective<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1dcab26 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1dcab26\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Les Triplettes de Belleville<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eb337d4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"eb337d4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;youtube_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube.com\\\/watch?v=Npro9kjyaJk&amp;feature=youtu.be&quot;,&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;youtube&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-video\"><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-04a45bf elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"04a45bf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Sylvain Chomet\u00a0 |\u00a0 80 min \u00a0|\u00a0 France \/ Canada \/ B\u00e9lgium\u00a0 | \u00a02003\u00a0 | \u00a0+12<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cbaa7aa elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"cbaa7aa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Les Triplettes de Belleville became one of the great phenomena of contemporary European animation, achieving extraordinary critical and institutional impact.
