"In every profession there is one award, or achievement, which marks a kind of peak. Climbers have their famous highest peak, writers, mathematicians, physicists have their Nobel, journalists - their Pulitzer, etc. In animation, this peak is the Grand Prize of the Annecy Festival. Or just the Annecy Cristal. This is our Everest. Thank you!”
