Our artists are working friendly but they stand against each other in problems. Where is the roost of problem? Are cinema’s laws so complicated that artists are not aware of them after three decades? Do artists prefer their personal interests to the public’s? Lack of management and intelligence have been felt these days.
Following the beginning of debate it was clear that the struggle was for power. On the first side there was Hussein Farahbakhsh who defended the government and Islam and Quran that was against what he indicated in “private life”.
Last year he insulted the Tehran Friday Pray Imam, Seyyed Ahmad Khatami. He also wrote a letter to him because Khatami called his movies “obscene”.
On the other hand, he defends Mr. Shamqadri and government by using street talk led to negative result. Homauoon Asadian repeatedly mentioned that Frahbakhsh present is in favor us.
On the other side was Homauoon Asadian who defended former manager committee. Those who served the riots in 1388, so they tried to remove Culture and Islamic Guidance Mystery’s supervision on Cinema ‘house. This act led to the closure of the cinema House. The house that is better to be inactive.
They struggled for power and unfortunately some officials did not notice and helped them to gain the power.
