Junk

JUNK by Kirk Hendry / Th1ng

JUNK is a multi-award winning short film produced at animation studio Th1ng by house director Kirk Hendry.

Made with support from the UK Film Council’s ‘New Cinema Fund’, JUNK tells the story of a boy with an obsession for junk food and the importance of following your gut instinct!
Junk has had official selections at over 100 film festivals around the world after premiering at the prestigious Annecy International Animation Festival in France. It has gone on to win numerous prizes along the way including The Creative Circle Awards (Most Promising Newcomer), Festival du Film Merveilleux et Imaginaire in Paris (Best Screenplay and Best Music), The Pentedattilo Film Festival in Italy (Best Animation), as well as nominations for ‘Best Short Film’ at the British Independent Film Awards, British Animation Awards, Rushes Soho Shorts and BAFTA (longlisted for Best Short Animation). It’s great to now see JUNK online for the very first time.
