The tree has been planted (2020)
An open book is the window to enter this protest short film about the wait for a permit to plant a laurel tree in the River Plate. The Viceroy, king and queen must all sign the authorization. Too much time for such a vital wish. Stop-motion animated cutouts take us on the complex path of bureaucracy to accomplish a simple action. The landscapes change to the beat of the music for the story to move forward and grow just like that tree they wish to plant.

Horrible, fascist and poorly acted
Don't Believe the Hype
I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
