Let's Nuke Iran: Cinema of the Land of Cats

By: All Is Grace

OK, here’s a photo of our sitting cat:

I’ve decided to make a list of my country’s cinema. I am well aware that a lot of people have made similar lists. Honestly speaking, this is some kind of self fulfillment act of confirming my identity, because I think Iranian cinema is something to be proud of for Iranians, especially in these days of horrible political misunderstandings and terrible anti Iranian propaganda around the globe… At least our cinema shows the true essence of us Persians, which is poetry.

This list is incomplete, because I can’t think of all the Iranian films I’ve seen at once.

The House is Black or خانه سیاه است

Close-Up or نمای نزدیک

Still Life or طبیعت بیجان
