Festival  de  Animacion   ran  from  April to May 2020. It started as an initiative to connect with my nieces, 
confined  in  Madrid  during  the Pandemic. Lucia and Jazmin made a tutorial for a basic stop motion app. And 
this was passed onto  older members in the family. During long weeks stuck inside in Argentina, Spain, the US,
France  and  UK we created animations and screened them live on WhatsApp on Saturdays for the extended family 
to see.

The  festival  proposed  a  space  of togetherness, and grew to dilute distance; rearrange established family 
roles, dynamics and age group hierarchies. Overall, we created 50 animations!
