The Lesson is about that This film consists of a single shot of a classroom as it undergoes a tumultuous period of history, during the Iran-Iraq war. The Iranian army are shown using the room as a staging area, preparing for the Iraqi invasion. Students are ta ...ught lessons on how to operate a Kalashnikov rifle rather than the normal education they may have hoped for. From here, the ebb and flow of the Iranian-Iraqi war is shown, as the classroom changes hands and, eventually, is left desolate. But will the sound of the laughter of children ever return to the classroom? In this film Mehdi Boustani (مهدی بوستانی) collaborates with Abolfazl Shakiba (ابوالفضل شکیبا), Samad Farhang (صمد فرهنگ), Abdolreza Savaedi (عبدالرضا سواعدی), Shahram Pouraskar (شهرام پورعسگر)
A Roof Over the Head is about that This film consists mainly of a single shot of a conversation between the recently widowed Tayyebeh and her dead husband's brother Mehdi. Tayyebeh's husband Mahmood was killed in the Bama earthquakes, leaving her with a young daughter, Elaheh, medical bills and little money. Mehdi stepped in to pay their medical bills, and now desires to marry his brother's widow. This engaging, minimal film captures the anguish and difficult situation Tayyebeh has been placed in, and makes the audience sympathise fully with her plight.

The Enemy of God is about that Director Mehdi Boustani demonstrates just how influential Hollywood has been among the younger generation of Iranians. This new generation of film fans discuss their love for U.S. cinema, including films such as 'Taxi Driver' and 'The Silence of the Lambs'. Expressing their great admiration for these American classics, they re-enact key scenes, taking on the roles of industry stalwarts Robert De Niro and Anthony Hopkins. 'Enemy of God' is a thought-provoking exploration of the changing attitudes to controversial cinema.
The Guilty is about that This taut film begins with two armed men parked on a dimly-lit, quiet street waiting for a woman, and unfolds unpredictably from here. The men are apprehensive, obviously harbouring illicit intentions. They discuss the risk involved in their task, and the trustworthiness of their female contact, with one man assuring the other that she is reliable. The woman eventually turns up, and leads one man into the house, with him preparing to ambush their target. However, the allegiance of the woman soon becomes dramatically apparent in this tense action thriller. In this film Mehdi Boustani (مهدی بوستانی) collaborates with Saman Salur (سامان سالور), Ali Kamali (علی کمالی), Hamidreza Mirhosseini (حمیدرضا میرحسینی)
Sin is about that This film opens dramatically with a scene of a woman being flogged by two grown men. We cut to an apartment in the present day in which two men reflect on life. One of them says he experienced a dream in which he was flogged as an adulterous woman. As this short film unfolds the pieces of the narrative begin neatly to fall into place. Biography by IMVBox.
