GLOOMY EYES, Fernando Maldonado & Jorge Tereso
Narrated by Colin Farrell, GLOOMY EYES tells the story of the sun who got tired of the humans and decided to hide and never rise again. The darkness awoke the dead from their graves. A zombie kid called Gloomy and a mortal girl called Nena fall in love and form a deep connection that not even the most powerful man in town can destroy.
