PARIS -- The 43rd installment of the Annecy International Animation Festival and its accompanying MIFA market have their timing down right this year. Running June 2-7, the festival marks the beginning of a month that will see four major animated projects (three of them French) hit more than 800 Gallic screens. The festival and market also comes on the heels of the announcements of the development of two major French-led animation projects, Roberta and Asterix and the Vikings. The three French animated features, Les Triplettes de Belleville (Belleville Rendezvous), Kaena la Prophetie (Kaena: The Prophecy) and Les Enfants de la Pluie (The Rain Children), will all be premiered at the festival, with Enfants kicking things off June 2.
