Glamorous animated ‘The Elephant King’ names top-grossing Iranian animation of all time.

According to a media report published Thursday, the flick has raked in over 60 million rials in screenings at Iranian box office, peaked all previous counterparts in takings.

‘The Elephant King’ hit the silver screen in March concurrent with Nowruz (the Persian New Year) screenings in the country.

Produced by Iran-based Honar Pooya Group, the animation has been described as a step forward both from the view point of technique and content.

Running for 90 minutes in collaboration with a team of 150 professionals, the animated flick has the largest number of characters among Iranian animations.

Set in Africa, ‘The Elephant King’ narrates the story of an elephant who rules over its group like a king.

The queen bears him a son and everybody expects the son to replace his father as heir to the throne. The clumsy baby elephant, however, disappoints them all.
