Nibbles is a Canadian animated short film, directed by Christopher Hinton and released in 2003.[1] The film, which Hinton made as a "quick and dirty" production for Acme Filmworks, depicts a family on a fishing trip.[1] Voices in the film were provided by Hinton and his sons Paul and Max, with the film having been inspired by a real fishing trip the family had once taken.[1]
The film was an Academy Award nominee for Best Animated Short Film at the 76th Academy Awards[2] and an Annie Award nominee for Best Animated Short Subject at the 31st Annie Awards, but lost to Harvie Krumpet.[1] It won the Jutra Award for Best Animated Short Film at the 7th Jutra Awards in 2005.[3]
