Due to the lack of expertise and financial resources of this auteur, she had to carry out all the production and promotion of the film, until a certain moment that she needed a producer. In this context, this low-budget animated short film, offers a representative image of independent animation outlook. This article will analyse the long path of a handcrafted co-produced animated short film, which will turn into a cultural commercialised product. Kijé is animated short film made in Belgium and France by the self-taught filmmaker Joanna Lorho, whose production period was extended to about ten years, as a result of a long journey.engAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/Animation productionCo-produced animationIndependent animationJoanna Lorhojournal articleopen access
