Project in residence
Cantar un batallón
“Cantar un batallón” is a 2D animated short film that is in the production phase. Inés, as director and co-producer, proposes to use the space of the Laboral Impulsa residence to continue with the animation studio that they already installed in 2021. The objective is for it to become a space for coexistence of professionals in the sector, both at a regional level as national, taking advantage of the new production phase in which the short film is.
The archival photographs of Esperanza, Inés’ maternal grandmother, and Lilián de Celis, the forgotten Asturian cupletista, begin to come to life to the rhythm of Álvaro Retana’s “Batallón de modistillas”.
