Theater

Theater is Soul of a Society

The film and television actor believes that theater is the soul of a society, but today it has taken its own breath due to this disease (corona) and there is nothing left about this art.

 It has been a year since the world was infected with an unknown virus; A year in which perhaps even the most pessimistic people did not think it would last that long, disrupting life all over the planet and confining communications.

Over the past year, all small and large businesses have been damaged by Covid 19 and have been shut down, mostly temporarily and sometimes permanently.

Accordingly, cultural and artistic activities were perhaps one of the first victims of the corona. Victims who, in some areas, such as programs and filmmakers, found themselves in a two-way street that had to produce food for a society that was encouraged to be isolated, and on the other hand, were vulnerable. An injury that is evidenced by a look at the number of artists who have been victims of Corona in the past year.

One of the problems that television programmers and cultural content producers continue to face these days is adherence to hygiene practices and requirements to prevent the spread of the corona virus. On the one hand, programs should be produced for people who are constantly encouraged to stay at home and they should be encouraged to spend part of their hours watching TV. On the other hand, programmers and producers of cultural products in this period are under pressure to observe health and health issues. There are factors.

There is almost no field of work that has been free of the corona fuss of the past year; A catastrophe that swept through all areas and geography of the world and changed the way of life of the whole world; During this period many cultural and artistic events were canceled or held in a way that was far from its existential philosophy. Television programming was also one of the areas that was damaged and sometimes, despite the need to expand and increase the quality, it became small and the quality decreased.

 Nader Soleimani, a film and television actor, in an interview with IRNA cultural correspondent, explaining the challenges that Corona has created in combination with other problems for Iranian art, said: “Corona has overshadowed all aspects of our lives; It was not just a matter of cinema and filmmaking. Corona destroyed everything.

He added: “Because of the problems that existed before and were combined with the problems of Corona, the cinema is slowly and softly disappearing.” If the health protocols are not implemented in our cinema as much as in other places and areas, but I do not know why the cinema was focused on after the outbreak of the disease and these centers were closed; The same was true of theater.

Soleimani emphasized: “Today, our theater is completely gone, because people can no longer sit and watch theater.”

“I’ve been at work since the beginning of Corona until today,” he said, explaining the difficulties of planning during the Corona.

Soleimani said: “We have suffered and worked in the past year; Of course, I worked not because I had to, but because I did it with love, and even if I did get a corona (which, of course, I have not had yet), I knew that this disease would soon leave me because I am passionate about everything. I do no and I do not run away from anything.

Soleimani, whose latest film Gigah was screened at the 39th Fajr Film Festival, commented on the film: “It is not pleasant to delete parts of the film for which work has been done; I hope that one day the director will convey to the audience what he is making.
