Iran’s animated short film ‘I’m not Alice but here is Wonderland’ has been awarded at the Austral International Film Festival (FICA) in Argentina.

The Iranian Youth Cinema Society reported on Monday that ‘I’m not Alice but here is Wonderland’ was named the best animation at the 2nd edition of FICA.

‘I’m not Alice but here is Wonderland’, directed by Mahdieh-Sadat Ahmadi-Soleimani, is about “a girl who is involved in the problems of her time and in the end she surrenders to the birds, which she has painted”, a synopsis for the film reads.

The film was named among the silver winners of the Best Short – Animation at the 3rd quarter of the 2020 Queen Palm International Film Festival in the US.

The second edition of the festival took place online earlier this month.
