Last Tuesday, February 12, a screening of the animated film "One More Day Alive", based on the book of the same name by Ryscard Kapuściński, took place at the Museum of the University of Navarra. It was a very special screening for the University, since this Polish-Spanish co-production, winner of, among other things, a award Goya for Best Animated Film, is a project created and directed by Raúl de la source and Amaia Remírez, two alumni of the School Communication.

After the broadcast of the film, Raúl de la source answered several questions from students and professors of Audiovisual Communication at the University, telling the ins and outs of the process of development of the film, which took "over ten years".

The screening was attended by more than a hundred people, who saw the premiere of a film that is giving much to talk about; it tells part of the story of journalism legend Ryscard Kapuściński, narrating the journalist's coverage of the last days of Angola as a Portuguese colony in 1975, and the terrible consequences of this after decolonization: a civil war, which lasted until very recently.

Part animation, part reality, the film features various characters who appear in Kapuściński's book, and who narrate firsthand how those years unfolded.

In the colloquium after the broadcast of the film, Professor Efrén Cuevas introduced Raúl de la source, who answered questions from several students, interested in knowing how he had managed to fulfill his dream. Among other things, de la source explained how he obtained the film rights to the book, purchased from the late journalist's wife, Alicja. He also talked about the ins and outs of the partnership that was developed between several countries in order to make the film a reality, and gave some clues for future screenwriters, film directors, etc.

According to the film's director , there were times when he thought about breaking with everything and abandoning project. "It seemed that we had everything against us, and we went through very hard stages," he explained. However, he wanted to give a message of hope, pointing out that now he is sample very satisfied with the good reception that the film has had: "I always thought that so much work and so many difficult moments were not going to be worth it, but now I see everything we have achieved with this, and I think it is worth it". De la source encouraged, during the whole colloquium, the students of the School of Communication to pursue their dreams and to work hard, because they do come true.
