Saudi Company Manga Productions releases the official "The Journey" trailer in Chinese. This comes following the high demand from international companies to distribute "The Journey," as the movie in its Chinese version enticed famous voice actors in China to be part of the film.

The official premiere of "The Journey" in Mandarin will be in Hong Kong end of December.

The Chinese dubbing is the fifth language of "The Journey" after Arabic, Japanese, German and English.

The Journey movie is the first Saudi animated film in collaboration with Japan. Its first release was in 2021 in several international countries, such as the United States of America, Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia, and others.

"The Journey" received positive reactions from international audiences and won the Septimius Award in the Netherlands for being the best experimental film for 2022.

Dr. Essam Bukhary, CEO of Manga Productions and executive producer of "The Journey," said in this regard: "Another success added to the movie, which has proven its worth and value in international territories. Our goal at Manga Productions is to export our enriched Arabian culture to the world and to showcase our talented Saudi youth who can compete and prove their skills in developing quality animation and further build the creative content industry in the region."
