UK Animex 2017 to screen Iran animation ‘Light Sight’

Iranian animation ‘Light Sight’ is scheduled to vie at the Animex 2017, an animation festival in the UK.

Directed by Moslem Tabatabaee, this will be the 100th international appearance of ‘Light Sight’.

The 3D animation will be Iran’s only representative at one of the biggest animation events in UK.

“The animation has one character and one setting,” Tabatabaee told the media, adding that “The character tries to escape form the room to get to the light he sees outside”.

“Animex was founded by Teesside University in 2000 with a view to creating a world-class inclusive festival that would draw some of the games and animation industries' brightest lights and future stars together to share their knowledge with the next generation,” the official website of the event wrote.

Consisting of a unique blend of talks, workshops, networking events, exhibitions and screenings, Animex promotes an ethos of collaboration and sharing and prides itself on its warm friendly atmosphere.
