My Spanish is very basic, so let’s translate that:
‘By distilling a corrosive humor with an incendiary political charge through an overwhelming use of digital animation, tending to turn bridges to other languages do not like the film or the video game comics’
Hm… Well, they really liked The External World and that’s why they gave it the Young Jury Prize for Best Short Film at the Gijón International Film Festival.
