Stuttgart-based sales company Sola Media has taken international rights to animated feature “Gus, the Guide Dog,” currently in pre-production and to be directed by Portugal’s Bruno Simões, an animation director and previs artist who has worked on films such as “Skyfall,” “Epic” and “Rio 2.”
Family-oriented “Gus” is produced by Roger Torras at Barcelona’s Wknd, Humberto Santana at Animanostra (Portugal), and Xosé Zapata at Sygnatia (Spain). Producers are in talks with a company from a third country to join the team. The feature will also be produced with the support of Movistar Plus and Spanish pubcaster Tve.
The feature follows Gus, a service dog by nature, but who lives on the streets. He’s joyful and his positivity is contagious. When he meets Gwen, a 14-year blind girl, he will do the impossible to become Gwen’s eyes. However, their parents think she will be better with a professional guide dog.
