Cortometraje animado Lucía

Abstract

This thesis carries out an analysis about child begging, portrayed in an audiovisual product, where the reality of many children who suffer abandonment and survive on the streets is shown in the form of an animation, considering the reality of the city and from various corners of the world, since it is a social problem that runs through each country. The short film "Lucia", refers to a girl, who lives in deplorable situations due to the abandonment of her parents, child exploitation and drugs that unconsciously consumes, a situation that can be seen in various corners of the city. The technique used for the audiovisual product is stop motion, to reach a wider audience, knowing that the animation is attractive for both adults and children. The language is subtle, but with great symbolic content, thus attempting to display a cruel message content but not in an explicit form.
