splash I reached out to Gallery Distribuidora, which is responsible for the films, to understand how the features were produced.

According to the press office, “the films were 100% produced with private investments without the use of public funds.” There was also no corporate sponsorship.

Companies choose the projects they want to invest in, not the government.
