In a near future everything seem clear and perfect, but what if you can get the opportunity to see what lies underneath the surface ?

Born in Livry Gargan, France, in 1976, David Alapont arrived in Paris in 1997. After years of school oppression, he was finally able to fulfill his dream: drawing.rnIn 1998, he attended the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs, of which he graduated in 2002 by directing L'Aiguille (The Needle), a six-minute black and white movie with colors. Nominated for several festivals, his film won the best short film award at the FIKE festival of Evora, as well as a special mention of the youth jury at the festival of Auch in 2003 and the special mention of the jury of the Canariamediafest in 2002. Since then, he worked as an animator, illustrator and storyboarder in several fields such as films, TV series, advertising and music videos. As a dad since January, 15th 2008, he is the happiest man in the world.

Born in Chile in 1971, Luis Briceno arrived in France in 1992. He studies engineering, following on with studies in film and sound for animated films. He then continued as sound designer for animation films, film director and singer with cumbia band Panamericana.
