According to Kanoon General Directorate for Public Relations and International Affairs, Amir Mashhadi Abbas added, “The plan called “Showing Shows” started in August 2020. More than 40 movie-theaters for children and adolescents are uploaded in Kanoon site: th.kpf.ir
He mentioned that due to continuation of the closure of the theaters because of corona virus pandemic and the audience welcoming “Showing Shows”, the second phase of this plan starts by displaying 9 movies since Jan 20, 2021 in concurrence with the anniversary of the memorable days of Fajr decade and the victory of the Islamic Revolution.
As Mashhadi Abbas said the plan will continue until the end of the current solar year on every Wednesday, one theater-movie every week.
Kanoon Cinema and Theater Affairs general director said, “Lafcadio”, “Good bye, the Old Raccoon”, “Pumpkin’s Daughter”, “Snake-Shouldered Legend”, “Magic Fish Bone”, “Ashi Mashi Sparrow”, “Auntie Marjan and Rooster”, “The Guest of Cave”, “Aytak” are the movie-theaters uploaded on th.kpf.ir for the children and adolescents in Iran and round the world.”
Mashhadi Abbas said, “Children need to watch theaters. He added that children obtain precious experience in theater halls. They learn how to show their feelings at the proper time, where to laugh aloud, where to think, and where to answer. Life skills, adaptive social relations, accepting responsibility are among other important matters acquired when children get together.”
It is reminded that Kanoon Theater and Puppet Theater Production Center started working in 1971 and by using puppets, live and combination or mixture of various methods started producing plays for children and adolescents. One of the outstanding Kanoon activities is performing plays on mobile theater in villages and deprived regions for children and adolescents living in such areas.
