In 1978, on the verge of Islamic revolution, more than 130 cinemas
burned down across Iran, including 28 in Tehran. Who set them on the
fire? How and why? If movies can predict revolutions? Does any
revolution see the revenge of people unseen on the silver screens?

Omar is a humble bricklayer, fragile-looking, thin and ungraceful. He
began to build a movie theatre above his home, all by himself and
without telling anyone. It took him four years.
He opened the cinema with a projector from 1928, got the seats from
the old village cinema and set up the screen painting a canvas that
his wife helped him hang. This room became his refuge.
After 10 years of trying to keep it running, his brothers decided to
sell the land where Omar's house and theatre were. He had to move.Omar
did not give up and started again. Like an ant, slowly and quietly.

The FISDN presents film secions focused on different countries and regions. This section intends to discover and explore different spaces and cultures with the aim to understand the specific regional, political and social circumstances, do reconstruct the emotional and intellectual spécificities of a special region or country. In this critical work we belief it's essencial to prefer films which rufuse, in its form and expression, the retake of sterotype ways of reality restituition. This refuse is an act of resistance against the actual period of "globalisation", which inclins to impose one dominating model of culture and habitutes.
