The short animated pieces include ‘Run, Rostam, Run’ by Hossein Molayemi and ‘Mr. Deer’ by Mojtaba Mousavi.
‘Mr. Deer’ utilizes the puppet technique to narrate a story set in an unknown time, in a ruined subway station which is similar to those in modern European societies. People in this society have animal faces and have forgotten humanity.
‘Run, Rostam, Run’ is a 2D animated piece depicting the Persian national hero Rostam who must travel to the future to Tehran in order to make up for what he has done to his son. In Tehran, he doesn't know whether to choose the legal or illegal option to achieve his objective.
