Animest has been an Oscar-qualifying festival since 2017, which means that the winner of the Short Film competition is automatically considered for an Oscar nomination in the Best Animated Short Film category. This year, the winner was Tomek Popakul's Acid Rain (Poland). The jury, consisting of Canadian artist Robert Valley, French producer Richard Van Den Boom and Danish animator Sara Koppel, justified their decision by saying the film “takes the audience on several, simultaneous journeys, with a hyper-artistic approach and a remarkable rhythm”.

With an increase in available funding, the festival has enjoyed a record-breaking edition this year, with 30 features selected, 400 short films, a plethora of sidebars and special programmes, and 150 international guests.

Here is the complete list of winners. All hail from Europe, with French productions winning as many as four awards:
