Crafting Karen’s Tale

Our team poured their hearts into creating The Boy and the Sword, directed by Emad Rahmani and Mehrdad Mehrabi. The story follows Karen, a young boy whose life changes forever when he receives a wooden sword, a gift from his father that becomes a symbol of resilience after tragedy strikes. As Karen grows, his path weaves through loss, courage, and the pursuit of justice, set against the lively tapestry of Mesopotamia. We aimed to craft a narrative that resonates universally, combining historical depth with emotional truth.

A Global Stage

As of 2025, our film is now accessible to viewers everywhere on Prime Video and Apple TV. Whether you’re watching with family or going in solo, we believe Karen’s journey offers something special, a chance to explore themes of perseverance and hope. We’re especially grateful for the recognition our film received, including the Best Animation award at the 2023 World Film Festival in Cannes, which affirmed our vision and fueled our drive to share this story.
