Chimiboga is the delirious animated world proposed by Ayar B, director of "Mercano: El marciano" and his recent feature film "El sol", where great and absurd characters coexist, among which Don Luis and his children, the rabbit Bugs Buni and the Disnei Mouse. Here, in this Chimi-Film, released directly to DVD, all the animated shorts from the Chimiboga.com site are compiled, plus some rarities, and with this it aims, in turn, to entertain everyone with its deranged stories. Chimiboga is, then, pure bizarreness and lysergy. Yes, the definitive humorous compilation.

Lava (2019), the animated film Ayar Blasco presented at the 34th edition of the Mar del Plata Film Festival, left many subplots unresolved in a sci-fi narrative in which an alien civilization dominated the planet through technological devices. This incompleteness, which could then be attributed to the director’s aesthetics, always free and prone to absurdity, was actually a pause that now, four years later, is resumed. The protagonist continues to be Débora, a somewhat insecure tattoo artist who ends up involved in the resistance when a new batch of invaders threatens to wipe out every single record of the human race. With the childlike strokes and the uncontrollably innocent humor characteristic of him, Blasco continues to shape his own epic, a hallucinated version of El Eternauta, with click beetles and all.
