| contents | <p>This paper examines the profound influence of <strong>Italian cinema</strong>, particularly <strong>Italian neorealism</strong>, on <strong>Iranian cinema</strong> from the 1980s to the present. By analyzing the works of <strong>Abbas Kiarostami</strong> and <strong>Asghar Farhadi</strong>, two of Iran’s most celebrated filmmakers, the study explores how Italian social realism has shaped Iranian cinematic storytelling, aesthetics, and thematic concerns. Key aspects such as <strong>the use of non-professional actors, real locations, and narratives centered on social issues</strong> are discussed in relation to their Italian predecessors. The research highlights how Kiarostami’s poetic realism and Farhadi’s intricate moral dilemmas echo the traditions of Italian cinema while reflecting the unique socio-political landscape of Iran.</p> |
