Iran animation ‘Amin and Akvan’ at 2018 Cannes Film Market has released new poster.

Directed and penned by Zohal Razavi, the animation enjoys a 76-min cinematic version with 15 mini-episodes for the small screen.

Razavi was quoted by media as saying the animation ‘Amin and Akvan’ is "inspired by the stories I read in my childhood story books."
