Widdershins is Scotland's very first steampunk animation. This fast paced BAFTA award-winning short, by writer, director and animator Simon P. Biggs, blends science fiction and Victorian period drama to explore the consequences of automation and artificial intelligence on our lives.
This parallel world is brought to life in an illustrative black and white style, and features the voice talent of award winning actor Brian Cox (Succession, Manhunter, X-Men 2).
Funded by the Scottish Film Talent Network in partnership with Screen Scotland and BFI Network, Widdershins premiered at the Edinburgh International Film Festival in the summer of 2018, and has since screened at over sixty film festivals around the world, and has received ten awards, including a BAFTA Scotland award for Best Animation.
