Me, Rear Window and Nothing Else is about that As a scriptwriter suffering from writer's block and with a broken leg, Maryam spends a restless night alone watching Alfred Hitchcock's classic 'Rear Window'. During the night, she becomes suspicious with the neighbours across from her, and just like the main protagonist in Hitchcock's film, she starts spying on the neighbours and is horrified by what she sees. Is Maryam simply delusional, or has she really uncovered something shocking? ‘Me, Rear Window and Hitch’ is a thrilling short film, which plays the original ‘Psycho’ theme song throughout, to heighten to the suspense. The film ultimately blurs the line between reality and delusion. In this film Esmaeil Mihandoost (اسماعیل میهندوست) collaborates with Ateneh Faghih Nasiri (آتنه فقیه نصیری), Yadollah Najafi (یدالله نجفی), Reza Joudi (رضا جودی)
Esmaeil Mihandoost (اسماعیل میهندوست) has been a Producer in some movies:
The Flower's Sanctuary is about that Flowers have played a major symbolic role in Iran's art and culture for centuries, and Seyran Alizadeh's documentary is an often poetic ode to this role. Following the process of various craftspeople as they make rugs and ornamental tiles adorned with flowered patterns, the film captures the care taken to create them while emphasising the visually pleasing effect of the end products. It also touches on the relation between real flowers and the symbolic power of their imaginative representations, and reflects upon the use of flowers in shrines. In this film Esmaeil Mihandoost (اسماعیل میهندوست) collaborates with Seyran Alizadeh (سیران علیزاده), Moosa Hajinezhad (منیره حاجی نژاد), Sabereh Kashi (صابره کاشی)
The Builders is about that When filmmaker Mihandoost is invited by his friend Ali to make a documentary about the Saraye Omid charity project in Orumiyeh, he simply cannot refuse. A group of civil engineers have donated and supported the project to construct a dormitory with facilities for parents of sick children who accompany them from villages around to a centre of cancer treatment and chemotherapy in Orumiyeh. Some well known actors and filmmakers have also supported this cause. In this film Esmaeil Mihandoost (اسماعیل میهندوست) collaborates with Seyran Alizadeh (سیران علیزاده), Hossein Rasti (حسین راستی), Ali Pezeshki (علی پزشکی)
