Director’s commentary
“For me The Eternaut represents my father who brought me comics every week. I think it was one of the first things I read in its entirety in my life, at the age of 10, and it had a profound impact on my way of understanding the narrative of my country – said Bruno Stagnaro, director and responsible for the screenplay -. The feeling that that first reading left me with has accompanied me throughout my life and, in some ways, has had a great influence on what I have done since. My approach to the adaptation will be to be faithful to that child reader who watched the story for the first time, trying to reconstruct the genuine emotion of living an adventure in the corner of the neighborhood and the construction of that great Argentine hero who is Juan Salvo”.
