‘Release from Heaven’ vies in Czech festival

Iranian film ‘Release from Heaven’ by Ali Noori Oskouie has marked another international presence at the International Film Festival for Children and Youth JUNIORFEST in the Czech Republic.

The animation film is participating in the festival’s 10th edition organized on November 4 to 9, 2017.

Set in a war torn country, the animation narrates the story of a female writer and teacher, Sareh who has to accompany two of her students on a life changing journey to find their fathers.

‘Release from Heaven’ is a mixture of fantasy and reality in which the teacher tries to tell stories for her students to encourage them, but she finds out that the heroes of her stories are real.

The International Film Festival for Children and Youth JUNIORFEST is held every year in several Czech cities including the capital, Prague.

Founded in 2006, the International Film Festival for Children and Youth JUNIORFEST managed to build a very successful film festival which annually attracted tens of thousands of spectators from around the world.
