Malditos Cartoonistas is a documentary (later turned into a TV series) directed by Daniel Garcia and Daniel Paiva. The documentary was released in 2010 during Rio Comicon, featuring interviews with 25 cartoonists, who spoke about various aspects of their work. Among the artists who participated in the 90 minutes of the film are Ziraldo, Jaguar, Nani, Angeli, Ota, Allan Sieber, Arnaldo Branco, and André Dahmer, among others. In 2012, testimonies recorded between 2007 and 2012 were gathered in a TV series of the same name, shown on Canal Brasil. The series had 13 episodes, each with a specific theme, such as the profession of cartoonists, the influence of the internet on cartoons and charges, and the work of women cartoonists, among other subjects. In 2011, the documentary won the HQ Mix Trophy in the "best production in other languages", and was awarded at the CineSul Festival and the Petrópolis National Film Festival. In 2013, the TV series won the HQ Mix Trophy again in the "best production in other languages" category.
