HOMENAJE A LA ANIMACIÓN ARGENTINA EN ANNECY 2010
A fines de 1990 iniciaba junto a Caloi -popular humorista gráfico argentino- el ciclo televisivo Caloi en
su Tinta. Una hora semanal consagrada a la animación de autor internacional, que en 1991 me llevaría por
primera vez al Festival de Annecy. Estos dos hechos, fundantes y permanentes, resultaron sin duda, la
principal inspiración de estos 20 años realizando, produciendo y difundiendo contenidos de animación,
que hoy encuentran su máxima expresión en este Homenaje a la Animación Argentina que tengo el placer
de presentar, en coincidencia con el Bicentenario de nuestro país y el 50 aniversario del Festival de
Annecy.
Así como los libros de Historia del Arte empiezan por las Cuevas de Altamira o de Lascaux, la Historia
de la Animación escribió uno de sus primeros capítulos en la Argentina. Allí, en Buenos Aires, Quirino
Christiani creó, dibujó y animó enteramente El Apóstol (1917), el primer largometraje animado del que
se tenga noticias.
La obra de este pionero, que despertó la curiosidad de Walt Disney cuando visitó el país en 1941, exhibía
ya la potencia creativa de una importante tradición gráfica y un rico mestizaje cultural, que son los
mismos valores que sustentan la producción actual de nuestros artistas.
Tanto las realizaciones independientes como las comerciales, gozan hoy de un sólido prestigio
internacional que las distingue como una industria cada vez más requerida por su capacidad para resolver
con originalidad todas las necesidades de una producción.
La programación preparada para este Homenaje ofrece un panorama amplio y representativo de nuestra
animación, reunida en dos programas de cortometrajes, uno de publicidad, una retrospectiva de Juan
Pablo Zaramella y dos largometrajes.
Gracias Annecy por la generosidad de esta distinción. Deseamos a todos que puedan disfrutar de nuestras
películas con la misma felicidad con que fueron realizadas y la que nos proporcionó a nosotros hacer esta
selección.
María Verónica Ramírez
CORTOMETRAJES
Un chiste corriente cuenta que los mexicanos descienden de los aztecas, los peruanos de los incas y los
argentinos... de los barcos. Quizás por eso, una de nuestras inquietudes ha sido siempre definir nuestra
identidad, sobre todo, cuando la globalización expresa sólo los valores de las potencias dominantes.
En 1993, desde el ciclo televisivo Caloi en su tinta, lanzamos el primer concurso de animación de la
Argentina. La idea era no sólo estimular a los animadores para que realizaran nuevas películas, sino
también, hacer un relevamiento del material histórico y reunir las obras que estaban desperdigadas o no
habían sido exhibidas.
En la necesidad de encontrar una voz que nos expresara hallamos que ella era naturalmente coral, un
mosaico con ecos de criollos, nativos e inmigrantes. Ahora, ayudados por el natural crecimiento de la
animación, el desarrollo de las tecnologías y por el estímulo que, aunque parezca inmodesto, recibieron
los jóvenes cuando difundimos las películas de autor de los grandes creadores de todo el mundo, nació en
la Argentina también una generación que se expresa con frescura a través de los cortos de animación.
Sin duda el cortometraje es el mejor campo de experimentación para los artistas que, alejados de los
condicionamientos del mercado, los enfrenta al desafío de la síntesis y aquello que no puede ser narrado
en detalle se convierte en metáfora visual.
He disfrutado especialmente conformando este panorama de la animación argentina a través de sus cortos
de autor, descubriendo y revisitando obras de gran belleza.
Con algunas piezas emblemáticas como La Pared, de Catú (premiado en el Festival de Annecy 1962), y
una gran cantidad de trabajos recientes -como el multipremiado El Empleo, de Santiago Grasso- más de
treinta cortometrajes nucleados en dos programas constituyen este coro de animadores argentinos que
exhiben la originalidad de sus voces y el universo personal que los define.

PUBLICIDAD Y FILMES POR ENCARGO
Hace muchos años, el director de una importante agencia de publicidad me contaba por qué habían
elegido la animación para promocionar un conocido insecticida y mostrar su efectividad para el feroz
exterminio de los mosquitos con un aerosol. La razón era muy simple, justamente porque no había
ferocidad cuando el insecto, que por cierto era muy simpático, era alcanzado por el producto y
desaparecía mágicamente en el aire sin dejar rastros. El locutor decía: ¨... los mata bien muertos!¨, sin
embargo, no había muerte, no había sangre, ni horror, ni violencia. El resultado del comercial fue tan
eficaz que la marca rápidamente se convirtió en líder y símbolo de insecticidas.
Ése es el poder de la animación que la vuelve inapelable: la magia.
En la Argentina la animación publicitaria tuvo su época dorada en los ‘60 y ‘70 con aquellos comerciales,
fenómeno que parece reeditarse en los últimos 10 años gracias a una nueva generación de creativos,
técnicos y artistas que se vuelcan a las nuevas tecnologías extremando las posibilidades de este lenguaje.
La combinación de estos recursos con un humor cada vez más omnipresente y agudo, convierte a la
publicidad de hoy en un arma imbatible cuyas municiones son exquisitas piezas de extraordinaria
eficacia.
Hoy, acompañada por una coyuntura económica mundial favorable, toda la maquinaria comercial de
nuestra joven industria es una usina creativa que produce para el mercado propio y el extranjero, exporta
talento y genera fuentes de trabajo. Por esta combinación de creatividad y conveniencia económica,
comerciales, videoclips, campañas de difusión, series, etc., son concebidos y/o realizados en Argentina
para todo el mundo.
Una variada selección de todas ellas, que incluye el ejemplo de los mosquitos, más obras del genial
Oscar Grillo -fundador en Inglaterra de Klakto, uno de los estudios más prestigiosos de Europa- y
producciones muy recientes, conviven en este nutrido panorama de la animación comercial.

RETROSPECTIVA JUAN PABLO ZARAMELLA
La retrospectiva de un artista joven es una invitación a descubrir un creador sobresaliente. Este es el caso
de Juan Pablo Zaramella, notable y prolífico animador que a sus 38 años se distingue como uno de los
realizadores argentinos con mayor reconocimiento nacional e internacional.
Formado en el Instituto de Cine de Avellaneda, comenzó su carrera en el mundo de la publicidad, para
incursionar luego en la ilustración y la infografía. Con este bagaje de lenguajes y métodos comienza en el
año 2000 a recorrer un camino independiente, junto a la productora Silvina Cornillón, y se lo reconoce
inmediatamente como un especialista en la técnica del stop motion, a partir de su segunda película, Viaje
a Marte (2005), realizada en colaboración con el guionista Mario Rulloni y galardonada con más de 50
premios internacionales.
“Considero que el estilo de animación debe tener correlato con la historia a contar”, expresa Zaramella
que, a través de muy diversas técnicas, ha transitado un camino de exploración personal que incluye
trabajos notables como El guante (2001), en pixilación con actores, o la sintética y bidimensional Lapsus
(2007).
Merecedor de más de 150 premios internacionales, actualmente participa junto a Rulloni de Ánima
Buenos Aires, largometraje en producción que reúne a los realizadores más importantes de la Argentina.
Con una singular producción de trabajos por encargo y cortos independientes, la obra de Zaramella
plantea siempre mundos fantásticos surgidos de la realidad cotidiana. Es un artista de gran personalidad
que en cada filme afirma su opinión como autor y se ha convertido en uno de los referentes de la
animación argentina.
Esta retrospectiva, concebida desde el cariño y la admiración profundos, es un merecido reconocimiento a
la solidez artística de su trabajo.

LARGOMETRAJE MERCANO, EL MARCIANO
Mercano, el marciano (2002), largometraje de animación para adultos del realizador argentino Juan
Antín, nació como una serie de cortos emitida por el canal de televisión Much Music del año 1998 al
2000 con gran repercusión de audiencia.
Mercano… es la historia de un extraterrestre que paseaba plácidamente por su planeta cuando una sonda
espacial enviada por los terrestres llamada “Voyager” aplasta a su perro. A partir de allí emprende el viaje
a la Tierra con una absurda misión: vengar la muerte de su mascota. Para su poca fortuna, la nave cae en
Buenos Aires, Argentina y queda destruída. Su misión fracasa antes de empezar y el “alien” se ve forzado
a sobrevivir en una realidad desconocida y poco amigable. Abandonado a su suerte y sin techo, Mercano
queda confinado a una vida en los márgenes de la sociedad. En el desamparo de una cloaca como
vivienda, el marciano se las arregla para obtener una laptop y comienza a crear una realidad virtual
parecida a su hogar. En el cyberespacio se hace amigo de Julián, un niño también solitario, hijo de un
poderoso empresario. Cuando el padre de Julián descubre la actividad de su hijo y el marciano, se lanza a
explotar un nuevo negocio millonario, en un delirio megalómano
"Es una película bastante dura, que trata sobre la realidad argentina", define Antín. "El marciano permite
mirar a nuestra realidad con ojos ingenuos".
Con una estética minimalista, un particular uso del lenguaje con jergas porteñas y argentinas, Antín
construye un retrato de la Argentina lleno de humor y cinismo a la vez que lanza una mirada crítica sobre
la tecnología y la vida cotidiana.
Este filme, que obtuviera entre otros galardones, la Mención especial del Jurado del Festival de Annecy
en 2002, vuelve a su pantalla como una de las obras representativas de la Animación Argentina.

Argentina.
LARGOMETRAJE BOOGIE, EL ACEITOSO
Boogie, el aceitoso (2009) es un largometraje de animación basado en la historieta homónima creada en
los años ´70 por uno de los maestros del humor gráfico en Argentina, el recientemente fallecido Roberto
Fontanarrosa.
Sé que Boogie me despreciaría mucho, por sudamericano de un país periférico y por hispanoparlante.
No entraría dentro de sus amistades", decía Fontanarrosa,"
Boogie es un veterano de la guerra de Vietnam, “un prófugo de la justicia desde su nacimiento” según las
palabras de su creador. Un machista empedernido, admirador de Harry el sucio. Un especialista en armas
cuyo hobby es disparar a transeúntes desde la ventana de su apartamento. Un xenófobo que persigue por
igual a judíos, negros, homosexuales o “chicanos”. Un inescrupuloso asesino a sueldo que se ufana de ser
el mejor de los matones hasta que el mafioso más importante de la ciudad le encarga eliminar un testigo,
nada menos que a su competidor, el mercenario en ascenso, Blackburn. Es entonces cuando Boogie sale a
las calles a demostrar que él sigue siendo el número uno.
Este violento y sádico personaje, heredero de la tradición del policial negro, ha tenido desde su
nacimiento un gran impacto en el público debido al humor paroxístico y corrosivo de Fontanarrosa.
Boogie juega siempre al extremo de sus rasgos y ahí reside su carisma. La identificación que provoca ha
tomado por asalto el lenguaje en la vida cotidiana. “Es un Boogie”, se oye decir en la calle para
caracterizar a un sujeto inescrupuloso.
Este personaje de dimensión mítica ha sido la inspiración de esta película de animación con fondos 2D
que conviven con elementos 3D y tiene también su versión en 3D, convirtiéndose en el primer filme en
utilizar estas técnicas en el país. Boogie, el aceitoso, participó de la competencia oficial en Annecy 2009,
y se presenta también dentro de esta selección.

BOOGIE, EL ACEITOSO / Oily Boogie
Directed by: Gustavo Cova
Script: Roberto Fontanarrosa (characters) and Marcelo
Paez-Cubells (writer)
Production Company: Illusion Studios
Country: Argentina - México
Running time: 82´
Technique: 2D – 3D
Year: 2009
Synopsis: A cold-blooded and ruthless hit man. Always on the run, Boogie follows his own rules.
A violent, chauvinist and sadistic character starring in a film that features a story line, music and images
targeted to teen and adult audiences. Women, alcohol, bullets, it has it all. Boogie, combines black humor,
incredible 2-D backgrounds and 3-D graphics with a sharp screenplay. Boogie, is a film that provides a
lethal dose of irony and such extreme violence that it becomes impossible not to laugh.
