2 Reels - Association for Reanimation of Storytelling was born out of the wish to cultivate and to promote the storytelling in all it's form. It brings together two spheres of activity bound by their mutual understanding of the importance of cultivating telling of the stories: Animateka International Animated Film Festival and Za 2 groša fantazije (A Twopence of Imagination) Radio Student programme. A significant part of its activities is dedicated to educational programmes for adults and children, as the stories - be it in the form of film, written word, sound recording or live storytelling - should come to life and live on among people.


One of the two reels, which keeps the association rolling, is the Animateka International Animated Film Festival. Since 2007, when it was established, the festival is calling to attention - through the screening of hundreds of animated films from all over the world - to the richness and diversity of the expressive means animated film is using in telling its stories. While its diverse side programme provides a meeting point for international gathering and exchange of experiences among authors, students, selectors, members of the press and audiences paving the way for new stories to be born.

The second reel turns with the rhythm of a folk-tale storytelling. Since 2003 the crew and guest performers of the radio show Za 2 groša fantazije (A Twopence of Imagination) at the Radio Student programme have been bringing these tales to life at musical storytelling events called Pravljična reŠetanja.

As it was already mentioned a bigger part of the activities that the 2 Reels - Association for Reanimation of Storytelling is performing is dedicated to educational programmes. Among the projects meant for the young audience a special attention should be addressed to the two carefully selected animated film programmes (made in collaboration with the Kinodvor Cinema): the Yellow Elephant is intended for children between 3 and 7 years and the Red Elephant for children over 7 years. A selection of those films was published on the DVD with the title Colourful Elephant. What concerns it's programme for adults it is basically focusing on the book publishing activity. Till now four books were published: The School of Animated film by Borivoj "Bordo" Dovnković, two graphical short stories, Persepolis 1 and Persepolis 2, both by Marjane Strapi, and the collection of educational materials Elephant by different authors.
