    In the boring afternoon after class, two boys played poker cards. The inadvertent physical touch and eye contact touched one of the boys. In game after game, he has a beautiful imagination from this indescribable feeling, and feels that all subtle touches seem to be dancing. However, it’s just that in this game where gays obsess over heterosexual men, he finally has to face the moment when the dance ends... This film is conceived of the "straight crush" plot in which young gays are obsessed with heterosexual men in their exploration of sexual orientation. It combines a variety of touch-related art mediums, trying to use the concepts of touch and gaze to describe the common experiences and memories of gay growth and memory.

    Cut-out animation of photographs from the main square in Varaždin (Croatia), as well as photographic self-portraits of members of the Vanima Film Creative Studio from Varaždin and their drawings and paintings, in which children imaginatively and interestingly illustrate their view of everyday life taking place in front of the centuries-old Varaždin Town Hall building. Creating and playing with collage snippets under the camera, the young animators use black-and-white photographs and drawings, occasionally adding bright red to symbolically touch upon the colors of the Varaždin flag. By placing their animated photo portraits in the context of the main city square, they sometimes indirectly, and more often directly, emphasize that over its 500-year existence, the Town Hall has witnessed the joys, weddings, councils, chaos, disputes, protests, and celebrations of the people of Varaždin. Hence, the film is titled Vanima for Varaždin.
