When I Came To Know Theater, Drama

Iranian Filmmakers Are Not Passive. They Fight Whenever They Can, As Creative Expression Means A Lot To Them. The Restrictions And Censorship In Iran Are A Bit Like The British Weather: One Day It's Sunny, The Next Day It's Raining. You Just Have To Hope You Walk Out Into The Sunshine.

It's Very Difficult To Talk About Religion In Iran Because Religion Has Gotten So Mixed Up With Politics.
