About the author

Kimiai started his career as an assistant director and made his debut, Come Stranger, in 1968. With his second film, Qeysar (1969), he and Dariush Mehrjui with The film Cow, caused a historical change in Iranian film industry. But Dariush Mehrjui's film with more artistic values has sustained its level of greatness through history of Iranian cinema . Kaisar became a great success at the box office and opened the way for many young, talented filmmakers who never had a chance in the industry before. He also received many good reviews by manipulating the film critics. His films deal with people in the margin of the society with his anti-hero characters that die at the end. Many directors of commercial films imitated his Kaiser/ Qeysar for about 6 years, but in the last decade he focuses on young antagonists. He usually writes his screenplays, using slang dialogs based on ordinary traditional people’s dialect but majority of Iranians find those dialogues unrealistic and weird . In 1991 he was awarded a prize in 41st Berlin International Film Festival for his Snake Fang (Dandan-e-mar). This was not his sole international prize. At the Cairo International Film festival in 1979 he got from the International Catholic Organisation for Cinema (OCIC), the OCIC Prize for his film The Journey of the Stone (Safar Sang). The international OCIC jury gave its award to this film because The Journey of the Stone denounced the exploitation of mankind by mankind and called for a more just social order.

تیتراژ

محسن دربندی: ما کاری به حُکم نداریم. حُکمِ رو کاغذ، مالِ محکمه‌س. اصلیّتِ حُکم مالِ خداست که ما و مَنش ریخته و گل‌ریزون می‌کنیم وُسه کـَسی که آزاد می‌شه از این چار دیواری، که همه‌ی دنیا چار دیواریه

تیتراژ

محسن‌ دربندی: کرم مرتضی‌علی، یه مرد که وُسه ناموسش دوازده سالو کشیده، وِجدانش بالاتر از این پولاست که کاغذه

سلامتیِ سه تَن: ناموس و رفیق و وطن

سلامتی سه کـَس: زندونی و سرباز و بی‌کـَس

سلامتیِ باغبونی که زمستونشو از بهار بیش‌تر دوست داره

سلامتیِ آزادی

سلامتی زندونی‌های بی‌ملاقاتی
