The Sweater: A small boy in rural Quebec receives a Toronto Maple Leafs hockey sweater by mistake. Animator: Sheldon Cohen.
The Street: Mordecai Richler's story of a family's reactions to their dying grandmother. Animator: Caroline Leaf. OSCAR® nominee.
Pas de deux: By exposing the same frames as many as ten times, the animators create a multiple image of ballerina Margaret Mercier and her partner, Vincent Warren. Animators: Norman McLaren, Evelyn Lambart. OSCAR® nominee.
Anniversary/L'Anniversaire: A computer-animated film to celebrate the National Film Board of Canada's 50th anniversary. Animators: Marc Aubry, Michel Hébert.
