In a meeting hosted by the House of Cinema, Homayoun Asadian and Mohammad Mehdi Asgarpour spoke about important and controversial issues, discussing the current challenges of cinema and the livelihood problems of artists. These two prominent figures in cinema examined the legal cases and the concerning livelihood situation of filmmakers, emphasizing that the time has come to abolish the Construction License Council.
Livelihood and Legal Challenges of Filmmakers
Asadian, in this meeting, referred to the livelihood situation of filmmakers, stating: "Many of our artists are living in difficult conditions and need serious support. These conditions not only affect the quality of their work but also harm their spirit and motivation." He also mentioned the legal cases of filmmakers and the legal challenges they face, calling for a swift resolution of these issues.
Mohammad Mehdi Asgarpour also pointed out the necessity of structural changes in the cinema system and emphasized that the Construction License Council is no longer effective. He added: "Abolishing this council can significantly improve the film production process and facilitate the work of filmmakers."
This discussion takes place at a time when many filmmakers are severely complaining about the lack of financial and livelihood support and are calling for more attention to their demands. This situation has led many artists to consider fundamental changes in the country's cinema system.
Given these circumstances, it seems that the House of Cinema, as an influential institution, must seek practical solutions to address these issues and convey the voices of filmmakers to the authorities. Hasn't the time come for decision-making bodies to respond positively to these demands and implement necessary changes in the cinema structure?
