The signature film for the International Film Festival of Kerala 2010 was released at the Kalabhavan Theatre here on Sunday by Transport Minister Jose Thettayil.

Named ‘Dreams’, the film is a 30- second animated work conceived and developed by Toonz Animation. It portrays the generation of ideas incubated in cocoons drawing inspiration from water and land and merging into the final form of the puppet logo of the IFFK in the sky.

The concept was short listed by a panel of experts and produced at the Toonz Studio in Technopark.

"It was long overdue for Toonz to associate with IFFK, considering the fact that for the last ten years we were producing movies for the world. We are proud, happy and also nervous on how the how the film will be received by the general audience.” Said P. Jayakumar, CEO, Toonz Animation.

The concept was created by Sooraj M.K. and developed by Mahesh Vettiyar. Animation Director for the famous Bollywood film ‘Koi Mil Gaya’ and Toonz Creative Director Hari Varm supervised the production of the signature film.

IFFK Festival Director Beena Paul and Chalachitra Academy Chairman K.R. Mohanan were also present for the screening of the signature film.
