Atotonilco Estudio was created in Barcelona in 2006 with the short film Niebla (Fog) under the direction of Emilio Ramos, co-founder. In 2010, the Studio got settled in Mexico City.

Our priority, as an animation studio, is to tell stories with honesty and authenticity in digital formats, museographic and great format projections. We are looking, through animation, styles and powerful narratives, to invite the audience to reflect, grow and heal.
