In this Sunday, Feb. 26, 2017 photo, Farhad Azima, Iranian director and screenwriter of the animated film "Battle of the Persian Gulf II" center, gives an interview to the The Associated Press, while a man watches a trailer for the movie, at his office, in Tehran, Iran. The film, that was four years in the making, imagines a devastating response to an American attack on the country’s nuclear program. In a climactic battle at sea, an Iranian commander orders his forces to open fire on a much larger U.S. fleet, obliterating it with a barrage of rockets. A portrait of the head of Iran's elite Quds Force Gen. Qassem Soleimani hangs in the background. (AP Photo/Vahid Salemi)
