Yes, it is believed that Argentina produced the first animated feature film ever made. The film is called "El Apóstol" and it was released in 1917. It was directed by Quirino Cristiani and it told the story of a politician who becomes corrupt and is eventually exposed by the protagonist.
"El Apóstol" was made using cutout animation, a technique that involves creating characters and backgrounds out of paper or cardboard and then filming them frame by frame. The film was a commercial success and paved the way for other animated features to be produced in Argentina and around the world.
While there is some debate over whether "El Apóstol" is truly the first animated feature film, it is widely acknowledged as an important milestone in the history of animation. Regardless of its place in history, it is a fascinating piece of cinema that still holds up today and is definitely worth checking out.
