For over 16 years, Anibar has remained at the forefront of cultivating a vibrant and resilient animation ecosystem in Kosovo, the wider region, and increasingly, on a global scale. Through its ongoing dedication to community-building, skill development, and international exchange, the festival has become a vital platform for creative incubation, offering not only a space for artistic expression, but also a spotlight for emerging voices to be seen and celebrated. By championing originality and experimentation, Anibar continues to empower the next generation of animation storytellers to take risks, dream big, and shape new visual languages.

In this spirit, the 16th edition of Anibar proudly marks the return of the Pitching Competition which now enters its fourth season as a central part of the festival’s industry programming. This initiative is a space for fresh talents, new opportunities, recognition and guidance. Whether through mentorship, networking, or awards, the program is designed to offer feedback, by also fueling ideas to evolve and gain momentum.
