Producer “Anti”: The original version of the film was 160 minutes

According to the Fars News Agency cinema reporter, the press conference of the “anti” movie was held in the main hall of the Milad Tower Conference Center in Tehran with the presence of the film agents a few minutes ago.

Mohammad Reza Shafiei, the producer of the film, said at the beginning of his speech: “It was in 1995 that the leader of the revolution talked about the July 27 incident and the media and cinema paid little attention to it.” This incident was the beginning of the Mojahedin Organization’s operation against the regime, and to this day it has not officially accepted responsibility for it, because if it is accepted, they will be included in the list of terrorist groups.

He added: “I was mentally involved with this issue, because I had started research to make a series about Shahid Beheshti.”

Shafiee added: “It took about two years of research and an initial script was written.” We took the year 1998 to build it, but we couldn’t. Finally, with a rewrite, we started pre-production in 1999, and finally went to Dorin this year.

He said about the characters in the film: “Apart from Shahid Beheshti and Kolahy, we do not have real characters in the film, that is, we do not have a real value, but it does not mean that they have not been similar in history.”

The producer of “Anti” emphasized: “In the investigation, we came to the conclusion that there was someone other than the accursed hat in the party and did not obey the direction of the explosion, but the rest of the events are our imagination.”

Shafiee pointed out: According to the security investigation, Mohammad Reza Kolahy had a fiancé or girlfriend who hid it from the organization. This girl was killed a few days before the July 27 incident in Tehran, and the reason is unknown.

The producer of “Anti” said: An audio file was discovered from Camp Ashraf, in which Massoud Rajavi says: “We could not get along with Beheshti. We used these dialogues in the film.

Shafiei said: The original version was 160 minutes and we had to shorten it and most of Ms. Javadi’s scenes were deleted.

Makeup designer Morteza Kohzadi said: There is only one photo of Mohammad Reza Kolahy and we tried to make up the actor based on it.

Nader Soleimani, who has appeared in the film “Anti” with a different role and make-up, also said: “I have been doing humor for many years and it is a seal that is stuck on my forehead.” Thanks to the director and producer for breaking the mindset about comedians.

He added: “It was difficult for me, because I had to break the mold and it is difficult for the actor to break the mold.” Not that it’s impossible, but it does take time.

Actress Leila Zare said about the closeness of her role with her character: “I have never played a role that is very close to me.” But I liked this role because of its human and romantic aspects. How satisfied I am with the output, I should not say, the audience should say.

The make-up designer of the film also said that Ms. Zare’s make-up should be in a way that they were younger than their own age.

Linda Kiani, another actress in the film, said: “I enjoyed playing in the anti-film and I would be happy if the candidacy of a supporting actor brought me, because it was very difficult.”

He added: “My role was supposed to be different from all the hypocritical girls I have seen on TV and in the cinema.”

* I have no plans to make a film on the subject of influence

Following the meeting, “Abbas” director Amir Abbas Rabiee explained his concerns about the infiltration of the sequel: “I have not defined a project for myself about infiltration.” There was influence in “Personal Clothing” and so in “Anti,” but I have no plans to continue.

Asked if the sequence of Ayatollah Beheshti’s arrival and its slow motion did not look like a video, he said: “It may have such feedback for the audience, but slow motion had cinematic logic and pov is Saeed (an influential person) and he knows what is going to happen.”

Rabiee emphasized: The end of our film is clear and there is no suspension, the suspension is about the characters in the film. Our screenplay is a fantasy story with a real background.

In response to why he did not make a film about the ideology of the Mojahedin Khalq Organization (MKO), the “anti” director said that it is difficult to study ideology in the medium of cinema, because it may not be attractive.

He added: “This terrorist incident is such a deadly blow to the Mojahedin Organization that it does not take it upon itself, but the investigation and the presence of a hat in Camp Ashraf, confirms that the incident of the 7th of Tir was carried out by the hypocrites.”

* Hat is still alive!

Javad Mogoei, the historical advisor of the film “Anti”, said: “We interviewed 60-70 people, even members of the organization such as Saeed Shahsvandi, and the book will be published soon.”

He added: “Shahsvandi, who also lives in Europe, says that Kolahy later went to the west of the country, then to Iraq and later to Europe.” And he believes the hat is still alive.

“The European branch of the organization immediately claimed responsibility for the blast,” Mogwai said. Rajavi later confesses in a film that their explosion was their work.

Mehdi Nosrati, who played the lead role in the movie “Anti”, also said: Saeed, in which I played the role, was not a real character.

Mahshid Javadi also said: I am happy that I played in this film and to enter the cinema I had to enter with a short role.
