PELEA — a 2D indie animated film that’s been a brainchild of mine since 2020 but last year I finally took the leap and began developing the project. Now, @peleaanimation is a team of artists from all around the world bringing a powerful story to life. [email protected]

This animation is hand-drawn by a team of human artists, we NEVER use generative AI. This is a snippet from the soon-to-be-released “Pelea” film teaser. #lulapresidente #lula13

Lula’s victory is a win for anti-fascism, for the #Amazon rainforest, for Black and Indigenous communities, for the whole Latin American region, and for the entire world! The Amazon rainforest standing strong is crucial in our fight against the climate crisis.

Lula didn’t just beat Bolsonaro: He beat Trump, Netanyahu/Israel, Meta interference, algorithms, the right-wing wave taking Latin America, and the elite billionaire class... If Brasil just did it, America can too.

I deeply miss the world before AI existed. I’m so exhausted from side eyeing videos, recoiling at tacky fonts, sepia tinted art, the messy blobs and blips of unmatched colors. It’s slowly sucking all the creative life out of the world while it physically destroys it.

Teaser releasing this fall 👀
“Pelea” uses animation to speak out against the imperialism that has devastated South America. Our countries have so much wealth that is being pillaged by foreign powers. We are animating a story of resistance (NO AI). Support our production on Kofi: ko-fi.com/peleaanimation

Daya & Lorena are prodigy scientists. They are developing a technology that speeds up the lifecycles of oil & metal eating fungi. The modified fungi serve as a pollution clean up tool to repair the devastation from drilling and mining in the rainforest where Lorena is from.
