Synopsis
editNino is a spoiled child who, plunged into a strong fever, is absorbed by a mysterious painting. His mother had warned him and the ruse that made him fall prey to the painting has been unleashed. Thus, Nino does nothing but lose himself in a maze of images that will take him further and further away from the safety of his home, going from painting to classic cinema, from drawing to photography, and from the Polynesian paradise to the myth of the volcano. But will Nino be able to return to his mother?[4]

Reception
editDiego Batlle of Otros Cines.com wrote: "Fever -an extension of a short of her from a couple of years ago- is a film made with intelligence and respect without falling into condescension, demagogy or manipulation. And also because it shows that you can take advantage of the limited resources available with creativity, without putting yourself down or "apologizing."... The beautiful songs and the inspired animation amplify the achievements of a film that will be far from perfect, but that stands on its own, demonstrating that there is space to make films for boys and girls with rigor, elegance and nobility."[10]
