Primary!
Iván Noel
Francisco Alfonsin
This explosive celebration of children's creativity follows the lives of students and their teachers in a peculiar yet somewhat recognizable primary school. When Jose Maria, more apt at lecturing fine arts at university than controlling a primary classroom, fills in his new post as art teacher, chaos seems on the verge of unleashing itself. However, the path that his young and infinitely imaginative little students take him through shows him there's more than a little he can learn from them, and a new life to discover...
Primary!
En tu Ausencia
Iván Noel
Gonzalo Sánchez Salas, Francisco Alfonsin
13-year-old Pablo is a quiet, lonely boy with a troubled past. His only friend is Julia, a shameless 15-year-old girl who is more than willing to help Pablo with his transition from childhood to adolescence, and give him some advice on sex, love, and life in general. On a quiet country road just outside of the village, Pablo meets Paco, an oddly calm, well-dressed stranger whose car just broke down. Nevertheless, he seems more interested in the boy than fixing his problem.
In Your Absence
La Tutora
Iván Noel
Valentino Vinco, Romina Pinto
Mona picks up her first job tutoring two orphaned children living in a derelict house in the country. Her obsession with trying to educate these two nearly feral children blinds her to the fact they have other plans for her.
The Tutor
Rejected
Iván Noel
Ismael Flores, Thiago Stampone
In a future medieval world, (after the collapse of our civilization), man has repeated all the same mistakes again & installed a new system of law based on false science and superstitious beliefs. Worst of all their deviances now, is anyone who dares to consume or even touch the sweet-tasting ‘Chisa’ flower. Once caught, they are permanently banished from the village and made to live a life of solitude and poverty. Most prone to this deviance are children—known by elders as ‘vessels for evil’—since their natural curiosity makes them prey to temptation.

Nine Meals from Chaos
Iván Noel
Rosana Rossotti, Oscar Mira
Eight years after a cataclysm and disease ravaged the human race, leaving just one in every ten surviving, all social structures have crumbled like sand castles. All remaining animals have been consumed and no sowing has yet been possible. It is Man at his most basic, destitute level. Two groups inhabit the desolate and abandoned land: packs of orphaned children in a feral state, living a nomadic lifestyle for their safety, and adults (with their offspring), barely surviving any better by living off their meat. It is a war only the most desperate of the two will win.

They Returned
Iván Noel
Valentina Sartorelli, Juan Ignacio Molina
They Returned is a beautifully touching and unnerving story about the unexplained disappearance of three children, two boys and one girl, and their reappearance three days later in a semi-autistic state. Not even the children themselves are able to help anyone understand what happened.
They Returned
Limbo
Iván Noel
Ana María Giunta, Lauro Veron
Limbo centers around a secluded colony of child-vampires between the ages of 4 and 120, who were all the victims of shameless adult vampires. They are led by a formidable and deeply religious ex-nurse whose destiny in life is to find these ‘lost souls’ and raise them in her colony. Through religious teachings and rituals adapted from Catholicism, and the occasional visit to local towns for blood, she prepares the children for what God had in mind for them… creation of a new race of men through ‘natural cloning’, which amounts to being bitten by her children. However, they are neither the only colony of their kind, nor are they as secluded from the outside world as they think.
