Spanish sales agent Liliana Bravo of Soul Pictures has boarded Diego “Parker” Fernández’s upcoming soccer drama, “The Signing” (“El Fichaje”).
His latest narrative feature, “The Broken Glass Theory,” represented Uruguay at the Oscars’ international feature category and has been a local smash hit, bowing in Uruguay just a month after the theaters reopened post-lockdown. “It played for 14 weeks, more than what we expected, and I heard that some people went to see it more than once,” said Fernandez.
Fernandez has also delved into non-fiction filmmaking with his debut documentary “Asi Pasamos” which vies for the top prize at Uruguay’s inaugural arts film festival, Arca (Jan. 9-14). Here he traces the life and art of graphic artist and painter Javier Gil who happens to be the older brother of his wife. “He gave me about 20 years of mainly home video footage and said: ’Do what you will with these,...

There are no unintentional strokes on Milorad Krstic’s moving canvas “Ruben Brandt, Collector,” a 2D animated feature so densely ornate with auteur-adoring references and eye-popping design, a single viewing would only serve as an insufficient introduction to its bona fide, one-of-a-kind panache.
Handpicking personal favorites from the world of fine art and classic cinema, the Slovenian-born, Hungarian-based painter and multimedia artist conceived a magnificent lesson in reinventing influences as fresh cultural artifacts for the benefit of his neo-noir narrative.

Last Sunday night during that big award show, between the lack of a host and That musical duet, you may have detected a slight tremor or rumbling emanating from “Tinseltown”. That’s because one of the winners may have begun a “sea change” (though an “A change” may be more accurate). we’re talking about the Oscar for Best Animated Feature Film going to Spider-man: Into The Spider-verse, the first full-length Us produced entry in the two decades of the category that was really aimed at an older audience, teens and young adults rather than the toddlers and pre-teens. Aside from some brief flirtations in the ’70s and early ’80s (Ralph Bakshi’s Fritz The Cat to his take on The Lord Of The Rings), Hollywood aimed animation at that “all ages” demographic. That’s not the rule overseas, really. Foreign filmmakers have utilized the animation medium to tell all manner of mature stories.

Milorad Krstic’s alluring, acrobatic animated feature “Ruben Brandt, Collector” tells the story of a thief with an unlikely motivation: He steals art because he has nightmares about art. And since he has nightmares about the most famous paintings in the world, he has to acquire those specific paintings, in the process becoming a world-renowned villain.
It’s a sexy, exciting tale that’s equally inspired by classical and pop art. The visual influences are found in museums, with characters and backgrounds lifted from Manet and Picasso, but the storytelling style is straight out of Mario Bava’s “Danger Diabolik,” with a cinematic philosophy more akin to Brian De Palma’s Hitchcockian pastiches.
Like Brandt himself, Krstic seems eager to possess every work of art that inspires him and to put them all on display. The question the film never quite answers is, Does that collection of influences stand on its own,...

“Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” isn’t the only genre-bending, visual feast vying for the Best Animated Feature Oscar. “Ruben Brandt, Collector,” from artist-director Milorad Krstic, combines the world of painting with the crime thriller in a boldly graphical way that’s mostly 2D. Only it’s R-rated and brutally violent.
“I’m a painter and everything started on this movie with the idea of making an animated film about painting,” said the 66-year-old, Slovenian-born, Hungary-based Krstic. “And to make it more interesting, I came up with the heist premise about a psychotherapist who is forced by his nightmares to rob famous museums to get the paintings he wants.”

This article about “Ruben Brandt, Collector” first appeared in the issue of TheWrap Magazine’s Oscar Nominations Preview issue.
It all started with Mimi. Milorad Krstic, a Yugoslavian-born artist who’d made a couple of short films and now lives in Budapest, was sketching one day in 2010 when he came up with a portrait of the woman who would become the inspiration for his first feature film, “Ruben Brandt, Collector.”
“I knew her name was Mimi as soon as I made the sketch,” he said. “And I knew she was an acrobat and a thief and a femme fatale and had a face like a horse but beautiful, and a neck like a giraffe.”

“Funan,” the story of a young mother trying to reunite her family during the Khmer Rouge regime in Cambodia of the 1970s, won both the Grand Prize and the Audience Award at the Animation Is Film Festival, held Oct. 19-21 in Los Angeles. The film, directed by Denis Do, made its North American debut at the event.
“’Funan’ reminds us that animation can tell any kind of story. This versatile medium is by no means limited to fantastical or extraordinary subjects, but is in fact uniquely suited to incredibly personal ones as well,” said Peter Debruge, jury chairman and Variety’s chief film critic. “With ‘Funan,’ Do explores what his Cambodian mother experienced at the hands of the Khmer Rouge regime, finding unexpected beauty within the horror of the situation. The jury agreed that the profound result actually feels more powerful by virtue of being made in animation.”
