Animated stories from around the world gather at Landmark’s Embarcadero Center Cinema for this year’s festival. Six wide-ranging shorts programs as well as features like Brent Green’s Gravity Was Everywhere Back Then and Sunao Katabuchi’s Mai Mai Miracle take the screen. Four diverse animators interpret folk rock band The Decemberists’ 2009 concept album in Here Come the Waves: The Hazards of Love Visualized, which opens the festival. Opening Night party follows the screening at La Mar Cebichería Peruana at Pier One and One-Half on the Embarcadero. More at sffs.org.
