Zubroffka ISFF to host Iranian ‘Eaten’

Iranian short animation ‘Eaten’ has been scheduled to take part in the Zubroffka International Short Film Festival (Zubroffka ISFF) in Poland.

Directed by Mohsen Rezapour, the 7-minute short flick will go on screen at the Kids Competition section of the Polish film event’s 15th edition.

This specific category contains three subdivisions, namely Kids 10+, Kids 13+ and Kids 6+. ‘Eaten’ will be among the competing films of the latter group.

The film is about a rabbit which has been eaten by a wolf. When finally in the predator’s stomach, it meets another rabbit which had been eaten by the wolf some earlier time. Now the two go on living in this new environment and the story proceeds from this point on.

Rezapour, the director of the flick, has said to the media that although his animation is a fantasy production, it is not intended for the kids. Due to the fact that the things that happen on the show are a bit harsh, targeting the adults.

The film has already been showcased at a number of global events, including the Dieciminuti Film Festival in Italy, the TAIS Animation Showcase in Canada and the Fluxus Animation Film Festival in the Netherlands.

According to the Zubroffka ISFF official website, “The festival, which has evolved from a small intimate event to the largest film event in north-eastern Poland, is open and borderless, respects diversity, is a meeting place for open creators with a sense of humor and those who value nature and its creations”.

The 15th edition of the event is slated for December 2-6, 2020.
