This publication house was considered Iran's most influential and biggest publication institute in the 1940s-80s years. The film looks at the life of the late Abdorrahim Jafari, Amirkabir's founder, and the institute's sad ending, early 1980s when the revolutionary court orders the institute to be confiscated.

This documentary, based on a comprehensive research on the topic of Iran's national animation, deals with the emergence and formation of animation in Iran - over seven decades.
