thumb|300px|rightLa Vecindad Montemayor: Nana's Animals is a 2010 short film directed by Quintero-Castro Studios, starring Nana in a GoldMinifigure Award-winning role and guest star Antonio Castro as Saulito. The short depicts a middle-aged man troubled over the fact that his granddaugther brought over animals to their anti-pet apartment. The film inspired its spin-off series, La vecindad Montemayor. The short is in English and introduces the "Saulito" character, with a raspy lengthy voice. Nana, on the other hand, does not appear in the spin-off series but does a quaintly significant role in the short. The short was revised and restored in a High Definition 720p format on November 10, 2011.
Production[]
The setting depicts an old vecindad, which indeed is the same La Vecindad set from the Lego El Chavo shorts. Animals include a toy "Donkey" from the Shrek movies. The short was originally planned to be in a English-language series of the same name, but producers decided that in Spanish, the storyline would be most accepted. The short's titles were hand-written, and luminous-keyed in with the film. A hint of a probable "series" pilot was that Antonio Castro was billed as a Guest Star. Following actors who would have the same billing would be Isabela Castres and 'El Chefo' Elías, but these succeeding episodes were never released nor filmed.
