Bushehr – The Supreme Leader's Representative in the province and Friday Prayer Leader of Bushehr said the film on Martyr Nader Mahdavi should become a lasting work in resistance art.

According to Mehr reporter, Ayatollah Gholam Ali Safai Bushehri, in a meeting with the documentary makers and documentary makers of Martyr Nader Mahdavi on Wednesday evening, emphasizing the need to introduce the personality of Martyr Nader Mahdavi to the young generation, said: "Producing great works of art about national heroes and martyrs of resistance is a cultural necessity, and legal and executive solutions should be considered to solve economic problems and meet the needs of these projects."

The representative of Wali Faqih in the province and the Friday imam of Bushehr, referring to the importance of art in perpetuating historical epics, said: Production of cinematographic works about characters such as Martyr Nader Mahdavi plays an important role in introducing real models to the society, especially the young generation.

Stating that many historical figures and events are preserved in the collective memory through works of art, he added: Art and cinema have a high capacity to narrate history, transfer values and introduce national heroes, and dealing with the lives of martyrs in the form of great cinematographic works is a great and necessary action.

Referring to the Supreme Leader of the Revolution's emphasis on the introduction of martyr Nader Mahdavi and other outstanding figures of the resistance, the representative of the Supreme Leader in Bushehr Province stated: these figures should be introduced to the society in the best way so that the youth can recognize them as their role models and their names and epics will remain in history.

The necessity of knowledge-based management of art economy

Referring to the economic problems facing art productions, Ayatollah Safaei Bushehri said: The economy of art in the country is facing challenges and the management of this field needs accurate and knowledge-based planning so that the producers of works of art do not face problems in securing costs and continuing their activities.

Referring to the increase in production costs and the necessity of predicting the necessary mechanisms in the contracts, he said: In a situation where the prices may increase unexpectedly, it is necessary to adjust the contracts for the production of works of art in such a way that it is possible to adjust the costs according to the economic conditions.

The representative of Wali Faqih in Bushehr province emphasized the need to pursue this issue in the film project of Martyr Nader Mahdavi and noted: It is suggested that the production agents enter into negotiations with the contract party and the relevant legal department and follow the necessary legal solution to compensate for the increase in costs through the amendment of the contract.

He added: If the cost adjustment mechanism is not foreseen in the contract, with the increase in prices, the hands of the executive agents and the parties to the contract will be tied to provide the required resources, and this issue can cause problems in the production process.

Pursuing legal support for the production of Shahid Nader Mahdavi's film

Ayatollah Safaei Bushehri, referring to the legal restrictions of government and public institutions to pay financial aid to projects that have a specific contract with another institution, stated: The support of this project should be done within the framework of legal regulations and using available capacities.

He stated that some support can be done in kind and in the form of providing the necessary facilities and equipment, adding: the essential needs of the project should be listed in detail to enable the review and follow-up of legal support from related institutions and groups.

The representative of Wali Faqih in Bushehr province continued: Pursuing the support capacities of Shahid Foundation, Pars Special Economic Zone and other related groups can also be put on the agenda so that, if possible, a part of the project's needs can be provided.

Emphasizing that financial problems should not stop such cultural and artistic activities, he said: efforts should be made to remove the obstacles to the production of this work by planning, negotiating and using existing capacities.

Iran, the land of civilization and historical identity

In another part of his speech, Ayatollah Safaei Bushehri, referring to Iran's historical and civilizational background, emphasized the necessity of paying attention to the cultural and artistic capacities of the country in introducing the national identity.

Stating that Iran has deep support in history and civilization, he added: Works of art should be able to correctly introduce this historical and cultural identity to the audience and present a documented and reality-based image against false narratives about Iran.

The representative of the Supreme Leader in Bushehr province also emphasized the importance of linking cultural activities with the culture of sacrifice and martyrdom, and noted: Narrating the lives of martyrs and representing their epics in the form of works of art is an opportunity to strengthen national identity and transfer the values of the Islamic Revolution to future generations.

Emphasis on trust and sincerity in the production of works related to martyrs

Ayatollah Safai Bushehri emphasized the need to pay attention to spirituality in the activities related to the martyrs and said: one should move in this direction with sincerity, trust in God and appeal to the martyrs and not be disappointed by the difficulties and obstacles ahead.
