Members of our DNEG Animation team traveled to the BFI London Film Festival for the world premiere of That Christmas!
The premiere, which took place at London’s Southbank Centre, saw director Simon Otto’s animated adaptation of Richard Curtis’ bestselling children’s book series make its cinema debut.
Already called a “new holiday classic” by The Hollywood Reporter, our team was thrilled to be there to see his work on the big screen for the first time – and to enjoy everyone’s reactions to this heartwarming tale!
