Synopsis

Nino is a spoiled child who, plunged into a strong fever, is absorbed by a mysterious painting. His mother had warned him and the ruse that made him fall prey to the painting has been unleashed. Thus, Nino does nothing but lose himself in a maze of images that will take him further and further away from the safety of his home, going from painting to classic cinema, from drawing to photography, and from the Polynesian paradise to the myth of the volcano. But will Nino be able to return to his mother? [4]

Reception

Diego Batlle of Otros Cines.com wrote: "Fever -an extension of a short of her from a couple of years ago- is a film made with intelligence and respect without falling into condescension, demagogy or manipulation. And also because it shows that you can take advantage of the limited resources available with creativity, without putting yourself down or "apologizing."... The beautiful songs and the inspired animation amplify the achievements of a film that will be far from perfect, but that stands on its own, demonstrating that there is space to make films for boys and girls with rigor, elegance and nobility."

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Cinema of Chile</span>

Chilean cinema refers to all films produced in Chile or made by Chileans. It had its origins at the start of the 20th century with the first Chilean film screening in 1902 and the first Chilean feature film appearing in 1910. The oldest surviving feature is El Húsar de la Muerte (1925), and the last silent film was Patrullas de Avanzada (1931). The Chilean film industry struggled in the late 1940s and in the 1950s, despite some box-office successes such as El Diamante de Maharajá. The 1960s saw the development of the "New Chilean Cinema", with films like Three Sad Tigers (1968), Jackal of Nahueltoro (1969) and Valparaíso mi amor (1969). After the 1973 military coup, film production was low, with many filmmakers working in exile. It increased after the end of the Pinochet regime in 1989, with occasional critical and/or popular successes such as Johnny cien pesos (1993), Historias de Fútbol (1997) and Gringuito (1998).
