According to the news reporter of Fars News Agency, at the beginning of this ceremony, Mehdih Sadat, the secretary of this event, came on the stage and said: dear artists, managers, journalists and experts, capable colleagues and especially mothers and high-ranking women of our land; Iran, hello.
We are proud to have gathered at the closing ceremony of the first Eve international film festival, a festival with the slogan “We stand by the family” with the efforts of the Goharshad Foundation in an environment where the invasive strains of Western culture and the media domination of hostile countries are constantly attacking the deep-rooted beliefs and convictions of the East. He has emphasized the need to maintain the cohesion and consolidation of the most important institution of any society, the family. The life of the family depends on the life of mothers and women. Active and strong women build a strong family and an informed society.
He added: “The elites and the government of this society should actively plan for such women. Tonight, these seats are filled thanks to loved ones who are all concerned and cultural managers who, with their support of the cinema, tried to present to the world that women give identity.” Is. We chose the name of Eve for this festival as a woman praised by all religions. In the first step, we did not think that we would face such a reception. The reception of domestic and foreign filmmakers encouraged us in this direction and proved to us that filmmakers who still have the spirit of nature in their lives are still standing by the family and can convey their ideals to the world through the medium of cinema. The empathy of institutions, artists, audiences and the wide Khan of art from Altaf was a festival named after women and family.
The axis stated: We sat together in specialized and research meetings to emphasize the necessity of representing the image of women and pathology, but this is the beginning of the story. Today, this festival is not over, but it is a beginning for cultural and media trustees to help concerned artists inside and outside. In the field of women and family, it can help to represent a valuable model in this field to create a complete image of women, which can be the driving force of the country. As a small member of this community, I thank you for your efforts and commitment.

Mohammad Mehdi Esmaili, Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance, Ansieh Khazali, Vice President of Women and Family Affairs, Seyed Mohammad Hashemi, Legal Deputy, Parliament and Provinces of the Ministry of Guidance, came on stage and honored Manijeh Bahmani, the mother of Martyr Ammar Bahmani, and Shahreh Pirani, the wife of Martyr Dariush Rezainejad.
Esmaili: The family is the primary nucleus of society
At the end of Hawa Festival, the Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance said while congratulating the Family Day: We are on a day that is celebrated on the occasion of the revelation of the Qur’anic verse about the Ahl al-Bayt breaking the fast to captives, orphans, and the poor. In the golden period of the rule of religion in the Islamic Republic of Iran, this blessed day was named as the family day.
He added: Family Day has an important culture behind it rather than a normal name. Our Islamic society is family oriented. Man and woman side by side form a small community, which is called the sacred institution of the family, and the result of this connection are children who grow up in the loving arms of their parents.
Pointing out that the family is the primary core of the society, he emphasized: If a society wants to achieve prosperity, this center must be warm, formed on time and reach its leaves in time to form a model society and a good family tree.
He stated: “Today, the incompatible civilization of the West seeks to impose its abnormal patterns in the family sphere. If you look at the international system, you will realize that things like homosexuality are an unbalanced and inhuman trend that threatens the foundation of the family.” The family is a pure institution in all human societies. What will happen if we don’t respect this institution? We are in the same place in the world today as this civilization is incompatible with human nature. It promotes some issues and see what harmful results it has. So we use all the tools to promote the family, “we stand by the family”; This is the slogan of the festival. We stand at the feet of the human, religious and moral family. In fact, we must stand and promote for the training of future society-building forces. For this reason, we organized the first international festival for the family field.
He continued: We chose the holy name of Eve. Eve is our mother and all humans. All human beings are indebted to this noble mother. Our friends said that when we searched for Eve’s name in different media in Maand, ugly literature was used about her. Therefore, we wanted to give the name of Eve, the name of this mother of humanity, for this festival. Mr. Khazaei could not come to this festival because he was sick, but I thank him and all the organizers of this festival. The secretary of this event is an example of a balanced Iranian woman who has several children and is a social and artistic activist.
In the end, he emphasized: I hope this festival will continue and will have a permanent secretariat.
