In November 2017, 24,000 Idea Makers and 4280 Movie Makers from 83 participating countries took part in competing for the Qomrah Award – from the people to the people.

So, it was a real honor for the Benchmark Animation lab short film “The Talking Books” to gain recognition and despite of that tough competition, it was nominated for the Top 5 short films!

What if books could talk? Tired of being left on the shelf and ignored, having been replaced by digital gadgets, books remember the good old days, nostalgia becomes frustration as they try to get attention from the boy who once read them...

Our edutainment film inspires kids to read real books in a fun way. Congratulations to our talented animators!
