Ana, en passant

Work-in-progress animation feature film directed by Fernanda Salgado, produced by Apiário Estúdio Criativo (Brazil) and Sardinha em Lata (Portugal).

The film has been one of the 5 animation feature films selected for the 2025 Cannes’ Annecy Animation Showcase, a co-organized event by the Marché du Film and Annecy Festival.

I’m currently the animation director of the film.

Rooted in personal grief and the rhythms of healing, “Ana, en passant” centers on a young woman navigating the complex aftermath of her grandmother’s death. Through a lyrical and visually textured style, Brazilian director Fernanda Alves Salgado crafts a journey that’s both intimate and philosophical. This Brazilian-Portuguese co-production is a meditation on memory, migration, and the invisible ties that bind generations together.
