France to screen three Iranian animations
IRNA – Three short animated films ‘Rainbow Fish,’ directed by Farkhondeh Torabi, ‘Shangool and Mangool,’ by Torabi and ‘LiLi Hozak’ by late director Vajihollah Fard Moqaddam, are slated to be screened in the First Steps Towards the 3 Continents Section of the Three Continents Festival in Nantes, France, from November 27 to December 3.
The section is featuring a collection of films from Iran, Brazil, and Senegal this year for children aged three and above, as well as their families.
These films were produced in 1996, 1999, and 1992, respectively, and have once again garnered the attention of the organizers of the Three Continents Film Festival after many years.
Explaining the selection of this animation collection from the Institute for the Intellectual Development of Children and Young Adults, it is said: “ “three stories full of tenderness and emotion with a family theme, where the heroes are made from fabric, wool, or cut paper. It presents a magical world inspired by Iranian
traditions.”
