One of Latin America’s biggest genre propositions, the Latido Films-sold “Virus 32,” from Uruguayan director Gustavo Hernandez , was unveiled Tuesday on the A DemainThe $1 million pic is a 50-50 Argentina-Uruguay co-production between Aeroplano, run by Sebastian Aloi, and Mother Superior Films, run by Hernandez and Ignacio García Cucucovich.

The story unrolls in a 24-hour period, and is shot in the 13,000 sq. ft. abandoned Neptuno Sports Club in Montevideo. It was written prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and shooting is currently on standby because of the pandemic. Hernandez described the film as a “sort of indoor road movie, where we discover each amazing space along with the protagonist.”

Aloi said it is about a mother trying to protect and reconnect with her daughter after a tragic event in their family and also the symbolic importance of Neptune as the water god, given that the protagonists are trying to escape to the sea. The ultra-fast intelligent zombie hunters will be played by actors who have contemporary dance training, thus adding to the gymnastic agility of the scenes.
