Juan Pablo Bouza writes:
This week is the "official" World Premier of Cronopios & Famas, the 90 minutes Feature film we did with Blender and other open source programs here in Argentina.
The Blenderheads who participated in creating the movie are Claudio "malefico" Andaur, Guillermo Espertino, Iván Hoffmann, Pablo Lizardo, Manuel Pérez, Darío Tacco, David Teres, Álvaro Vidal and Juan Pablo Bouza. The movie is based on short stories by Julio Cortázar and it features the works of painters such as Luis Felipe Noé, Antonio Seguí and Carlos Alonso.

Hello my friends !
Congratulation on your project. I remember seeing early tests and it looked promising. I wont get a chance to see it in theatre, but hopefully can see it soon.
Hugs from Switzerland to all the team!
Congratulations! I really look forward to seeing it! :) I hope you release a digital download of it later on, then I'll definately buy it.
So many Cervantes Institutes, and no Spain? Any chance of seeing it online?
