India festival honors ‘Loupetoo’

Iranian animation ‘Loupetoo’ has been awarded at the 2022 Ahmedabad International Children Film Festival (AICFF) in India.

‘Loupetoo’ by Abbas Askari competed at the 4th edition of the AICFF where it was granted the best animated film award of the event.

The film’s name is inspired by the word Kermani people of Iran use to refer to handmade toys that mothers used to make for their children in the past.

The animation is about a hospital where Dr. Saeed Kamali treats his mental patients through letting them make toys.

“A person disguised as a patient vandalizes the workshop and causes its closure. The doctor’s son, Ali, tries to help his father solve the problem,” a synopsis for the film reads.

‘Loupetoo’ previously took part in various festivals across the world, including the Universal Kids Film Festival in Turkey, the 3rd KidzCinema in India and the Sierra International Film Weekend in Bolivia.

The Ahmedabad International Children Film Festival aims to bring the world of children's cinema to a wider audience across the world and also to students and children.  

The 4th edition of the Ahmedabad International Children Film Festival took place on December 24-29.
