In TRES NIÑOS TRISTES Y MEDIO UNICORNIO (Three Sad Kids and Half a Unicorn) three young misfits find inspiration in a magical manual that leads them on a heartfelt journey of self-discovery and transformation. A warm and imaginative story full of humoristic situations that blends resilience creativity and the most important ingredient the power of friendship into a perfect story.
On its turn in LA CACERÍA (The Hunt) six players are selected to test VENARI a brand new advanced mixed-reality game controlled by an Artificial Intelligence. What starts as a thrilling competition turns into a deadly hunt where the players become the prey. A story that makes us think about the delicate balance between emotional intelligence and technological progress.
Two very different stories aimed at very different audiences but which focus on the human’s ability to survive or endure in common even in worlds dominated by technology or fantasy elements.
