With the incredibly exciting news that “Ser Semilla” got selected for the Graduation films Competition at @annecyfestival !!!!
I almost fainted from the news (and cried a little jaja). This film was possible thanks to all the people who me echaron porras, supported me, listened to me endlessly, and who challenged my thoughts throughout (a mis amigas, mi familia and my professors -always so deeply grateful for you 💕). To @mattis_appelqvist for the music, and @yarcuof for the sound, to @roza_zik and @el_malolo for lending your talents, a @macaria.r por darle aliento a las mujeres del bosque y a @polo_mares por el color: the short wouldn’t be what it is without you! And to @re.anima.emjmd for giving me the time, structure, support and allowing me to meet so many wonderful people throughout the 2 years.
So exciting and see you in France in June!

As an early birthday present to me, I am beyond excited to share that @vimeostaffpicks chose my film to become part of their roster!
Happy this semilla will now be available for all to see 💕🌸
Coming with the crazy news that Ser Semilla will screen at @semaine_de_la_critique at a special program out of competition with the invitation from @ficm !!!!
And not only that, but I will be also attending to the Cannes market thanks to the invitation from @giffmx
Agradezco profundamente a los festivales mexicanos, que apoyan a cineastas mexicanas y que están haciendo posible esta experiencia!!
Can’t believe how far and wide this seed is flying 🌸💕🌻

📍𝗖𝗢𝗧𝗠 2️⃣3️⃣ is curated by @toasted__bean 🖊️
🎨💿📚 Julia Granillo shares with us her passion for Aoko Matsuda’s ‘Where the Wild Ladies Are’ — a short story collection that revisits Japanese ghost tales with humor and a feminist twist. 🇯🇵 Blending the supernatural, social satire, and contemporary everyday life, the author gives voice to women — sometimes human, sometimes spectral — to question norms, relationships, and women’s place in society. 👸🏻

📚 Julia Granillo nous partage sa passion pour ‘Where the Wild Ladies Are’ d’Aoko Matsuda, un recueil de nouvelles qui revisite avec humour et esprit féministe des contes et légendes de fantômes japonais. 🇯🇵 En mêlant fantastique, satire sociale et quotidien contemporain, l’autrice donne la parole à des femmes — parfois humaines, parfois spectrales — pour interroger les normes, les relations et la place des femmes dans la société. 👸🏻

Last year I began sketching more often in this little sketchbook, let’s see which places it gets to go to this year 🦋

Un otro fragmentito de lo que se viene, como excusa para compartir esta linda entrevista que me hicieron en la secretaría de cultura:

For this project I’m also playing with different dances from both India and Mexico - this was made with the help from Kathak dancers. And once more @andres_volkov in the music side of it all (playing with the idea of how the music between the countries could converse and infuse each other)
Again a 2d hand drawn animation with natural pigments and colored pencils ✨

Another fragment for my upcoming project ~ entre mensajes y viajes de ballenas
2d hand drawn animation with natural pigments from hibiscus and marigold flowers and colored pencils.
I am happy to share a few extracts of the work I did this year thanks to FONCA JC Grant. I hope these will become part of a new short film which is cooking up!
Using the cempasuchil (marigold) to talk about migration and home/coming, with elements from its two main homes in Mexico and India. The music was done by @andres_volkov ! Que gustazo ser jovenes y creadores juntos!
All the animation was 2d hand drawn with natural pigments, mainly marigold, hibiscus, buganvillea, as well as turmeric, and more. As well as some colored pencils.

I had the joy to collaborate with @bananaboymusic making the art for a couple of his songs ✨
Having fun playing around responding to the music and some concepts. I had so much fun, if you are musician and want some art, let me know!
