Accessible screening:<\/strong> This screening is accessible to deaf and hard-of-hearing, and blind and partially sighted audiences, with audio description, Slovene descriptive subtitles, and Slovene Sign Language interpreting.<\/p>\n Olivia, 12, lives with her mother, who is trying to make it as an actress, and her seven-year-old brother Tim. Although they live from hand to mouth, the boundless imagination they share helps them cope with their daily struggles. But when they lose their home and are forced to move to a new neighbourhood, their lives turn upside down. To shield Tim from this upsetting situation, Olivia has him believe that this is all part of a film in which he’s the main character. With the help of new friends, the family rediscovers a sense of security and belonging.<\/p>\n Set in Barcelona, the puppet animation is based on the award-winning novel by Catalan writer Maite Carranza, tackling themes such as the loss of home, poverty, mental health, social exclusion, and solidarity in a sensitive and child-friendly way. With humour, magic and warmth, it tells the story of a childhood in which imagination becomes a refuge, friendship a source of strength, and community a place where we can find support even in the hardest of times.<\/p>\n \nDirected by:<\/strong> Irene Iborra Rizo When I read the novel, I was deeply moved. On the one hand, because it echoed my own life, and on the other, because Maite managed to tackle, from a child\u2019s point of view, complicated subjects with great tenderness and a real light. I then felt the need to tell this story in the form of a film, to make it a powerful tool to destigmatize poverty and thus enable us to talk about it with children without dramatizing it.<\/p>\n I\u2019d like to share the idea that what we tell ourselves inside is very important, because it can save us. I\u2019d also like to convey to them that life is beautiful in its contradictions, even if it doesn\u2019t make us happy every day. And above all, that we all have a superpower: the power to choose how to react to whatever happens to us.<\/p>\n Stop motion animation with puppets creates a small “safe distance” that allows young audiences to receive the story without being overwhelmed by its realism, while identifying with the characters. Stop motion also offers the possibility of using textures, clothes made of fabric and woollen hair, that appeal to the sense of touch, so closely linked to our way of perceiving reality.<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text] [vc_row] [vc_column] [vc_column_text] OLIVIA AND THE INVISIBLE EARTHQUAKE Spain, France, Belgium, Switzerland, Chile | 2025 | 71′ 10+ In Catalan with Slovenian and English subtitles Accessible screening: This screening is accessible to deaf and hard-of-hearing, and blind and partially sighted audiences, with audio description, Slovene descriptive subtitles, and Slovene Sign […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-templates\/template_page-builder.php","meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.animateka.si\/2026\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/28807"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.animateka.si\/2026\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.animateka.si\/2026\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.animateka.si\/2026\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.animateka.si\/2026\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28807"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.animateka.si\/2026\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/28807\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28808,"href":"https:\/\/www.animateka.si\/2026\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/28807\/revisions\/28808"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.animateka.si\/2026\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28807"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}ABOUT THE FILM<\/h2>\n
