Good news for Basque cinema: two Basque productions have recently been selected to take part in relevant film events.

On one hand, the animated short film Decorado, directed by Alberto Vázquez and produced by the producer UniKo from Bilbao, has been selected to compete for the nominations of the Oscar Awards of the Hollywood Academy. This qualification is the first step in the race for these awards.

"Decorado" is the third short film by Alberto Vazquez, an author who has a personal and unique narrative universe, which uses humor to reflect on  the absurdity of life. The story is an existentialist fable starring anthropomorphic animals, that talks about fate and human freedom. It is a 2D animation film that won last year´s award for the Best Short Project at the Festival Cinema Jove.

On the other hand, the Basque production Psiconautas has been nominated for the Best Animation Film by the European Film Academy. The film is produced by Basque Films in co-production with Zirkozine and directed and scripted by the director from Bilbao Pedro Rivero together Alberto Vázquez.
