Admirable Quote by Alex Abreu

“Each film has its processes. It doesn't mean that all…” quote by Alex Abreu — Download Open image

“Each film has its processes. It doesn't mean that all animated films have to be like "Boy and the World," but creators have to have total freedom. There are films that are born with the purpose to sell. They are still admirable films with great artists and great visuals, but we wanted to use a more radical approach to create art. That's what we tried to do.”
