Because of its unique qualities, traditional animated films have immense appeal, widely embraced by audiences of all ages world- wide. To live, to learn, to share thoughts about hopes and dreams, to speak of life experiences in all its colors, hardships, comforts and joys, are qualities July aspires to express through its films.

Determined not to lose sight of its vision, July Films looks forward to growth, and aspires to build an endearing, timeless collection of traditional hand-drawn animated films; and perhaps beyond ...
