Junk Girl is an animation created in Tabriz. It narrates the story of a girl who was made of junk. She looked dirty, and smelled like a skunk. She was unhappy and spent a lot of time at the dumps. But, there was a light in her life, and that was a man who liked her a lot. But she made a decision a bit too harsh.
This animated film is an adaptation of the namesake poem from Tim Burton's The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy, and Other Stories book. To date, this animation has been nominated for awards in several different film festivals around the world. Junk Girl was also screened in Tehran's International Short Film Festival.
Directed by Saman Hosseinpour, One-Nil which has attended several international film festivals including the 17th annual BAMkids Film Festival in US and 3rd MiCe Film Festival in Spain, narrates the story of a boy who gets so excited watching soccer that he forgets he is in the middle of a haircut.
