In the new season, we will see changes and we tried to expand the interaction with the audience that existed before. Comments, suggestions and criticisms of dear audience will be more reflected in the program and we will try to answer the questions and comments of the audience as much as possible in the program. On the other hand, an expert section has been added to the program, after watching each movie, we will have a summary and useful review of that movie by an expert.
Sediqi said: Another change that has been made in the topic of content is to pay attention to the discussion of books and book reading in such a way that we ask the directors who appear in each program to introduce a good book in the field of the seventh art to the audience, so that in this way, A more correct exchange of ideas should take place. Also, according to the previous procedure, by inviting the producer of each work, while showing their films, we will have a sincere conversation about the film and the filmmaker’s points of view on the general topics of short cinema.

Therefore, not long ago, a call was published by the network to support filmmakers who want to work in this field. According to this call, artists who want to make films can send us their scripts. The scripts are read by experienced experts and the chosen ones are supported and can put their works in front of the camera and then their works are broadcasted in various festivals by the iFilm network. It should be noted that in the field of post-production of these works, if the filmmakers want, they will be helped.
