The members of Azorro first collaborated in 2001 producing the short film "We Like it a lot" and submitting it to the "4 rooms" exhibition in Bunkier Sztuki, Kraków. They were pleased with the results and the consequent critical acclaim. After producing several other projects, it was clear they worked well together and that sharing the artistic responsibility produced provoking results. They decided to formalize the relationship and Azorro was born. Azorro's aim is the generation of delight, understood as the entelechy of communication.
