The AFA Podcast: Modest Heroes

If you are a fan of this Podcast, you know how much Team AFA loves talking about animated short films. We also love the fledgeling Japanese animation studio, Studio Ponoc. What happens when to take both of those awesome things and combine them into one?

You get Modest Heroes. The very first short film anthology from Studio Ponoc. This week, Rachael and Gino look into each short film and what makes them unique. Is this theatrical release a sign of things to come for animated short films?
