Abstract

The editorial article "Gender Animation" highlights the growing trend of adult animation directed, starring, or written by women. Several veterans of artistic animation are mentioned, such as Florence Miailhe, Isabel Herguera, and Michaela Pavlátová, who have managed to bring their personal poetics to feature film format. The work of Carmen Córdoba, a computer engineer who tells stories through animation, is also highlighted, mentioning her short film "Roberto" and her upcoming project "Amarradas". In addition, research content on female filmmakers in Spain and Mexico is included, as well as analysis on the representation of the female body in animation. On the other hand, it is mentioned that the short film "El limpiaparabrisas" directed by Alberto Mielgo and produced by Leo Sánchez was the only Spanish winner at the 2021 Oscars in the category of "Best Animated Short Film", being the first animated film directed by a Spaniard to win this award. The film "Flee" by Danish filmmaker Jonas Poher Rasmussen is also highlighted, receiving three nominations at the 2021 Oscars in the categories of "Best Documentary", "Best Animated Film", and "Best International Film".
