'Alphabet' to be screened at Muestra Movimiento Int'l Filmfest in Mexico

Iranian short animation 'Alphabet' has been set to go on the silver screen at the 4th edition of the Muestra Movimiento International Film Festival in Mexico.

Directed by Kianoush Abedi, ‘Alphabet’ is a 3D animated production of Iran's Documentary and Experimental Film Center in late 2017.

The 6-minute animated piece depicts a nation that has forgotten the alphabet of living. They cannot see, hear, or speak, but the words are waiting for them eagerly.

‘Alphabet’ has so far joined some international film events, winning a number of awards, including the best short film award at the 5th Sayulita Film Festival in Mexico, the Best Experimental and Animation award at the 6th Speechless Film Festival, as well as the 15th Southside Film Festival in the US, and the 5th Tripoli Film Festival in Lebanon.

The 2018 edition of the Muestra Movimiento International Film Festival is slated for September 17-29 in Mexico.
