After an introduction by Dr. Reza Ghassemi, the founder of Kanoon Iran, the great documentary Grass: A Nation’s Battle for Life was screened, following which Mr. Maghsoudlou spoke at length about the film and its importance in the history of world cinema and then lead the audience in a Q&A.
The program was well received by the almost full house and was followed, as per tradition, by the audience being served tea, coffee and pastry provided by Kanoon Iran.
