Fabulillas

Animation film made by producer Pedro Alonso Pablos and premiered in 2017 that uses the images of the centenary tradition of El puente del Arzobispo ceramics, and recounts classic fables from the Spanish literature environment, from the European fabulous tradition, probably started by the Greek slave Aesop.

In 2019, two years after the premiere of the film, the ceramics of Talavera de la Reina, together with that of El Puente del Arzobispo, were inscribed on the UNESCO Intangible Heritage list.

The work follows the short trail of animating ceramics in the cinema; perhaps started in 1984 by Lesley Keen through his 6-minute short Orpheus and Eurydice and continued by a fragment of the film dedicated to the Greek hero Hercules from Walt Disney's studio in 1997, until we reach this animated work we are talking about now, with the particularity that Fabulillas uses and animates the images of said ceramics themselves, which have been processed and treated, mixed with some other supporting images created by Pedro for the occasion.
