Annunciati i verdetti degli attesi Annie Awards, i riconoscimenti che annualmente vengono assegnati dalla ASIFA (la sezione hollywoodiana dell’Association Internationale du Film d’Animation) alle migliori produzioni del mondo animato.
Nella storia di questo premio 15 volte su 22 edizioni, il vincitore della categoria principale ha conquistato successivamente anche l’Oscar. Nella scorsa edizione il pluripremiato Pinocchio di Guillermo Del Toro si aggiudicò 5 Annie Awards prima di conquistare l’ambita statuetta.
