Similar to Mickey Mouse characters but living in much more violent worlds, V\u00e1zquez’s heroes find themselves in a kind of Truman Show reality. To be happy, Arnold the mouse takes pills made by ALMA, a mega-corporation controlling everything and everyone. But slowly, he begins to wonder, first paranoidly, then genuinely, whether everything around him might be just a facade.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][vc_column_text]Director’s Statement<\/em><\/p>\n

The story of Decorado<\/em> was born out of a long journey filled with coincidences, artistic discoveries, and the people who made this feature film possible. I have always been interested in addressing contemporary issues through fantasy. Metaphor and fable allow us to tell stories from a different place, offering new perspectives on reality.<\/p>\n

Animals, untethered from a specific time or place, belong to all cultures; they come from fables and classic tales but also from the origins of comics and animation. That is why they are deeply rooted in our collective imagination and universally understood. Besides, animals are more beautiful in every sense than humans.<\/p>\n

Arnold faces a multiple crisis \u2014 existential, professional, emotional, and romantic \u2014 and his personal battle against this prefabricated society drives his quest for freedom. The film becomes a critical fable about the meaning of life and human liberty, revealing that the only possible way out lies in genuine, heartfelt bonds. True friendship and love emerge as salvation in a world saturated with superficial relationships and hollow work.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator][vc_column_text]Awards and festivals (selection):<\/p>\n
