Interesting articles on Iranian Cinema. Ironically, these articles show that Iranian Government is somewhat more attentive and supportive to their film industry than Indonesians.

There's also this 2-part articles on the relation between the art of Iranian Cinema and the Iranian politics. Read part 1 and part 2.

In fact, to more support film production, Iran made a Film Center for the Young Filmmaker. I also found an interesting piece on women filmmakers in Iran.

And don't forget to visit the website of an Iranian filmmaker.
