An Iranian short animated film titled \u201cStripy\u201d has drawn great praise from the Hungarian animation society following its screening in a film festival in the country.<\/p>\n
The Iranian animated short film titled \u201cStripy\u201d was largely lauded by Hungarian studio directors and animators, after being screened in an animation film festival in Kecskem\u00e9t, Hungary.<\/p>\n
According to a Farsi report by the Asr-e Iran news website, the Kecskem\u00e9t Animation Film Festival (KAFF) is an animated film festival held biennially during the month of June in Hungary.<\/p>\n
Stripy was the first Iranian animated film ever to be shortlisted among the large number of Oscar nominees in 2016.<\/p>\n
A production of Gonbad Kaboud Studio, the animation has been directed by two Iranian animators Babak Nekooei and Behnoud Nekooei.<\/p>\n
It is made based on a classic piece of music titled \u201cHungarian Dance No. 5\u201d by the German composer and pianist, Johannes Brahms (1833-1897).<\/p>\n
Lauding the Iranian animation, Ferenc Mikul\u00e1s, the KAFF\u2019s director, said making a narrative animation based on a piece of music or soundtrack is a herculean task.<\/p>\n
He also praised the Iranians\u2019 intelligent selection of the story for this piece of music.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe theme and content of \u2018Stripy\u2019 is in perfect harmony with its soundtrack. Like this musical piece, the film, itself, has numerous layers and raises a global issue.\u201d<\/p>\n
Commenting on the importance of the theme of the Iranian animation, Mikul\u00e1s said, \u201cMonotony and absence of creativity is our main problem when performing different jobs, particularly the governmental ones and those in the field of education. In my opinion, the theme and content of this animation is very ponderable. We should pay attention to its subtext and deeper layers.\u201d<\/p>\n
The creative director of Kedd studio, G\u00e9za M. T\u00f3th, also said \u201cStripy\u201d is an impressive work of art, adding the graphics and visual impact of the animation on audience is very remarkable.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have earlier seen this animation and believe that it has high-end graphics.\u201d<\/p>\n
He, whose animation titled \u201cMaestro\u201d was nominated for Oscars in 2006, said the Iranian animation is very touching.<\/p>\n
The animation\u2019s soundtrack and its visual narration has helped precisely and effectively narrate and visualise a repetitive order.<\/p>\n
\u201cStripy\u201d, along with a number of other animations from Iran, were screened in a special non-competition section in KAFF titled \u201cIran\u2019s Animation\u201d. This section was held in cooperation with the Centre for Innovation and Technology Cooperation of the Presidency of the Islamic Republic of Iran and Iran\u2019s Vice-Presidency for Science and Technology.<\/p>\n
With a length of 3 minutes and 35 seconds, the two-dimensional animation has earlier taken part in big international festivals in France, Brazil, Italy, Argentina, the Netherlands and Romania.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
