Plot
Many years ago, mollusk-like aliens enslaved planets with their hypnotic amulet. However, during the pre-Columbian era, an anthropomorphic condor immune to hypnosis stole the amulet, de-hypnotizing the humans and causing the aliens to retreat to their planet, but with a promise to return. The Condor and his friends hid the amulet in a temple in a Mexican jungle, and over the years, the Condor had several descendants.
In the present day, in Pelotillehue city, Condorito and his friends win a soccer match against Buenas Peras team. During an interview, Condorito flirts with reporters, leading to Yayita electrocuting him and leaving with Pepe Cortisona to buy a hot air balloon for Tremebunda's birthday, Yayita's mother.

Why this record matters
The phrase “2017 animated film directed by Alex Orrelle & Eduardo Schuldt” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Object files, edition statements, performance records and contemporary criticism preserve different stages of the work’s history. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 10, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q28815158. The Library of Congress control number is no2019068363. 1 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2017 and 2018.
Later fame can flatten the distinction between original context, subsequent adaptation and institutional collecting history. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
