Golden Beggar awards ‘Sky Sun, Tile Sun’

The Golden Beggar International Film Festival in Slovakia has honored Iranian animation ‘Sky Sun, Tile Sun’.

Directed by Ziba Arzhang, the short flick won the children’s jury award for best animation at the 27th edition of the Slovakian event.

The 6-minute ‘Sky Sun, Tile Sun’ is about a city painted on a tile that undergoes intense explosion and bombardment.

Due to the incident, the sun breaks into many pieces and the city gets dark. But the people build a new sun together.

In the production of the flick, Arzhang has taken benefit of Iranian art manifested in the form of beautiful tile works.

‘Sky Sun, Tile Sun’ participated in some global events, including the London Kurdish Film Festival in the UK, the River International Film Festival in Italy, the Anifest Rozafa international film festival for children and young people in Albania, the Sonoma International Film Festival, the Washington DC International Film Festival, the Fine Arts Film Festival, and the Florida International Animation Festival, all in the US.

The animation won the award for Best Animation Film at the Tracce Cinematografiche (Film Tracks) Film Fest in Italy.

The Golden Beggar is the first and the oldest international festival of local TV broadcasters, which takes place every year in Košice.

The 2021 edition of the event took place on September 8-11.

Iranian filmmaker Saman Hosseinpour served on the jury at this year’s edition of the Slovakian event.
