The Málaga Film Festival honored three Uruguayan films: the documentary *La flor de la vida*, the feature film *No dormirás *, and the mockumentary *Misión no oficial*.
Titled *Traigan la hierba*, the feature film *Misión no oficial* won the Audience Award for Best Film.
This mockumentary was produced by Pardelion Humor and Loro Films, and directed by Denny Brechner, Alfonso Guerrero, and Marcos Hecht—the latter two graduates of the Bachelor’s Degree in Communication with a focus on Audiovisual Media—and premiered in Montevideo in September 2017. It tells the story of a group of Uruguayans sent to the United States with the goal of sourcing marijuana for sale, as part of the government’s cannabis regulation project.
At the festival, *Unofficial Mission* was screened as part of the Zonazine selection.
