, the Seed of Hope,” the Quirino Awards winner of a special call for projects made by La Liga – a joint venture of Argentina’s Animation!, Mexico’s Pixelatl and Spain’s Quirinos – will form part of a La Liga Annecy showcase featuring a bevy of the most anticipated animation titles from Spain, Portugal and Latin America.

Adapting a graphic novel by Spain’s Laura Martel, “Winnipeg, Neruda’s Ship,” the project was initially created by Toni Marín, an executive producer on Ignacio Ferreras’ Annecy special distinction winner “Wrinkles,” based out of Barcelona’s La Ballesta. “In such current tough times, this is a beautiful story of collaboration and humanity which is so necessary to remember,” said Marianne Mayer-Beckh, a producer on Pepa San Martín’s Generation Kplus International Jury winner “Rara.” She added: “I believe that the SS Winnipeg’s feat, transporting 2,400 ‘sons and daughters of Neruda,’ has not received the place in history it deserves; this project is a small contribution so that it will not be forgotten.

Julia travels with her father to the new world. She uses a pencil and a notebook to understand the hostile world around her and as a means of defence. Drawings may play a key role in the animated feature, which mixes 2D and 3D.
