“We’ve been long-standing friends with everyone at Cartoon Saloon since those heady days when we celebrated our first Oscar nomination together for THE SECRET OF KELLS, and again five years later for SONG OF THE SEA,” said GKIDS’ Beckman and Jested. “We knew we needed to be involved with THE BREADWINNER once we learned Nora would be bringing Deborah Ellis’ beautiful and compelling story to the big screen. We’re thrilled that this film marks our first foray into the creative process and we look forward to supporting Nora and the team in bringing their vision to audiences everywhere.”
