  • A new short film called "Gruff" features extraordinary artwork by filmmaker Julian Curi. But it's not computer animation. Curi drew all of his characters and backgrounds by hand on paper, manipulated his drawings like puppets before the camera, and used computers to erase the wires, giving his film a uniquely intimate feel. The film centers on the relationship between its heroine, Hazel, and her emotionally distant father, Abuelo, a character loosrly based on Curi's own father. Curi talks with correspondent Jonathan Vigliotti about creating his unique film, which got its start via crowdsourcing on Kickstarter.

    I remember his shorts popped off from UA-cam and when he had his crowdfunding campaign going. It’s crazy to see just how far he’s come with his film and he deserves everything he’s getting out of it!

    So sad man. When a man becomes a father they need to learn to open up. Life is too short for this hard heartednes. And I am almost certain the father wished he could, but the more you solidify your ways the hard to seemingly becomes to let them down (it isn't though, I finally realised for myself, thankfully at a younger age before it become who I was).

    ❤❤. Respect my father passed away two years ago. He was a strong man, he lived till 80 years old. I still remember him saying. “Te Amo CABRON!” Some people would say it was wrong, but that was my Dad. He provided for me, kept the family together before my Mom passed and accepted the good and bad. Thank you 😅
