NOW IN DEVELOPMENT
As a short, "LUCHA and the EKEKO" has performed well beyond our expectations — enjoying a successful festival run. We’ve been humbled and delighted by the awards, favorable reviews, and the warm, engaging responses our film has received.
​
So we're excited to announce that "LUCHA and the EKEKO" is now being developed into a live-action feature so that it might reach a wider audience worldwide.
