Iranian animated film ‘Kelileh & Demneh’ is to participate at “Within the Family” Film Festival in Russia.

Directed by Alireza Tavakkoli-Bina, 'Kelileh & Demneh' will vie at the children’s film competition section of the 13th edition of the event.

'Kelileh and Demneh' are two young jackals. The drama starts in the middle of a rainy night when the horrified owl pays a visit to the king of the jungle to report about the excessive hunting he had witnessed.

‘Kelileh & Demneh’ is the Persian version of ‘The Panchatantra’, which is a Sanskrit ancient Indian collection of interrelated animal fables in verse and prose, arranged within a frame story.

The animation has received the Special Jury Award at the Children’s Fest section of the Eurasia International Film Festival in Kazakhstan, 2017.

It has gone on screen at a number of international events, including the Canada Kids Film International Festival, the Seoul International Youth Film Festival in South Korea, the International Film Festival for Children and Youth JUNIORFEST in the Czech Republic and the Rolan International Film Festival for Children and Young People in Armenia.

The 13th edition of "Within the Family" International Film Festival is underway in the Russian city of Yaroslavl.
