Mafalda: La Pelicula

DIRECTED BY Carlos D. Marquez

WRITTEN BY Alberto Cabado, Quino

STARRING Cecilia Gispert, Susana Sisto, Paqui Balaguer

Rare theatrical screening

Quino Lavado’s charming comic strip, Mafalda, comes to life in this delightful animated film. Mafalda is a headstrong little girl with a unique outlook on the world, an equally unique group of friends, an unflappable hatred for facism, militarism, and a never-ending distrust of adults and their dogma. Though its root is a compilation of pre-existing animated shorts; through new music, voice-acting, and editing, MAFALDA: LA PELICULA emerges as a singular and gleeful theatrical experience, worth the time of seasoned fans and newcomers alike.
