At the beginning of this ceremony, the Director General of Khorasan Martyr Foundation Razavi, while congratulating the Decade of Dignity, said: We thank God that we have the opportunity to hold the closing ceremony of the first round of this international festival next to Imam Mehrabani.

Hojjat-ul-Islam Mehdi Hassanzadeh said: The resistance front has had many capacities, several years have passed since the martyrdom of Haj Qasim, but the film of his martyrdom has not been produced yet, and we have not paid attention to this global figure as it deserves.

He stated: We have the capacity to make films as many as the martyrs of the resistance front, so that we can win this unequal war where the enemy is using all his power to attack Islamic values. We hope that with the support of the country’s cultural authorities, more serious steps will be taken in the field of filmmaking.

In the next part of this ceremony, after honoring the families of the martyrs and sacrificers of the Jerusalem operation in the 16th national and nationwide ceremony on the 3rd of Khordad, the secretary of the first International Sacrifice Film and Screenplay Festival said: Cultural dominance has always attacked free people, but committed artists with production Good works have always resisted this unequal invasion.

Farhad Mokhtari stated: The Itsar Film and Screenplay Festival was an artistic and culture-building effort for new connections that have deep roots in Islamic culture and was a move towards realizing our own achievements to reach new horizons.

He considered the creation of a strong media line in Islamic countries as one of the goals of this festival and stated: This issue requires our round-the-clock efforts. In addition to that, the strategic connection of artists of the resistance front with each other, providing and creating understanding in joint productions between the countries of the resistance front and representing the face of global arrogance were other goals of this festival.
