ICFF necessary to be held in global city of Isfahan: mayor

Isfahan mayor, Mehdi Jamali Nejad, stated: Isfahan is today the global city of Iran known as a peaceful & child-friendly city by UNICEF, and it could be said that both “the international film festival for children and youth” and “the global city of Isfahan” can help one another grow.

Mehdi Jamali Nejad as speaking to the reporter of the festival in Isfahan office declared that Isfahan is always welcoming the children’s film festivals with open arms. “This city should host the international festival for children and young adults”, he said and expressed satisfaction over the return of the festival to its original home, Isfahan.  

Referring to the efforts made by several urban and provincial directors of Isfahan to return the festival to Isfahan, Jamali Nejad announced: The 30th festival is entirely different from those of the past years in that it is handled by children directly. They are making reports to narrate the process of the festival for the Iranian nation. “The children-based movement is aimed at training future directors, and also involving them in the executive sections”, added the mayor.

Jamali Nejad further stressed: “The festival’s theme is bicycles. We are willing to kill two birds with one stone, both the festival is going ahead, and bicycles are reaching enough popularity among the children and youth.”
