Black Slide is a British-Israeli short animated film written and directed by Uri Lotan and co-produced by Manchester-based Flipbook Studio and The Hive Studio in Tel Aviv. It’s a story about a 12 year old boy on the cusp of puberty called Eviah who breaks into a water park with his friend Tsuf to ride the fearsome Black Slide, the most frightening water slide in the world.

The film deals with Eviah’s anxiety’s, fears and his despair, which we soon find out, isn’t just because of the daunting prospect of riding the slide, but is largely due to something all the more tragic waiting for him at home.

It’s a beautiful, nuanced, coming-of-age story, a bittersweet film about how time refuses to stand still.

The film was Oscar shortlisted at the 2023 Academy Awards, nominated for best short film at the 50th Annie Awards and won for best short film at the British Animation Awards.
