Following that on the same day is the screening of the Chilean short film The Bear's Story by director Gabriel Osorio.
Inspired by his grandfather’s exile during Chile’s military regime, Osorio tells the story of a family man who longs to return home through a puppet show created by an old bear. It was the first Chilean work to win an Oscar for “Best Animated Short Film.”
On December 5, audiences can enjoy the animated film Colombia Encanto: Land of Wonders , produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios, inspired by the rich culture and biodiversity of Colombia.
