DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT
"Cassio is a deeply personal piece. In a way, it depicts my own childhood: how I grew up inventing stories within the most delightful solitude my environment could offer. At the same time, it tells the story of the main character's son from our 'Pato Silver' franchise, bridging family drama with resilience through sheer imagination."
— Fabrizzio Bartolini, Creator & Director
Synopsis:CASSIO is a short-form animated miniseries (micro-series) depicting the boundless, multi-act imagination of a 5-year-old boy coping with childhood struggles and family transitions. Designed as an anthology narrative (ranging from a 3-episode space odyssey while bedridden to high-speed Formula 1 action on a moving truck ride), the series turns everyday domestic life into cinematic action sequences and epic worlds.
