They have made 6 short films that have been selected in more than 700 festivals around the world, winning 100 awards. Through their production company, I + G Stop Motion (created in 2005) they are currently developing a new television series titled "Triton, the Little Wizard", the pilot episode of which aired in the winter of 2010. They are also developing the feature film "Errònia".
They have found, through the developed productions, their own inimitable style, which portrays a world full of misfits and rebels. They pay special attention to the complex and contradictory universe inhabited by children, where innocence, imagination and ingenuity are intimately intertwined with cruelty, selfishness and little obsession. The powerful theme of sexuality also stands out in his work, always present in our lives and, of course, in that of children, from a very young age.
