That's a very small amount of money for a feature film. Pixar would likely spend an order of magnitude more.

Are you using that term for effect, or...? The most expensive Pixar films to date have cost around US$200m.

An order of magnitude generally means a multiple of 10, as I understand it.
So yes, a Pixar movie ($200m) is an order of magnitude more expensive than this film ($18.6m).

$200m USD is $158m euros.. so yes, that's, an order of magnitude more.
