BEAR STORY's Gabriel Osorio and Pato Escala have won the Academy Award for Short Animated Film. This is their first Academy Award nomination.

About the film: Every day, a melancholy old bear takes a mechanical diorama that he has created out to his street corner. For a coin, passersby can look into the peephole of his invention, which tells the story of a circus bear who longs to escape and return to the family from which he was taken.

Other films in the category include: Prologue, We Can't Live without Cosmos World of Tomorrow and Sanjay's Super Team.

The 88th ACADEMY AWARDS are taking place tonight, Sunday, February 28, 2016, at the Dolby Theatre® at Hollywood & Highland Center® in Hollywood, and are being televised live by the ABCTelevision Network. The Oscar presentation is also being televised live in more than 225 countries and territories worldwide. Comedian, actor and filmmaker Chris Rock returns as host of the event for a second time.
