A look at cinema products published by the Namafar Center for Data Mining and Policy Research
Among the cultural industries, the cinema industry holds a special place in terms of profitability, impact, and popularity. An industry that takes shape as feature films on the silver screen of cinema halls, or as films and series in television frames and on other screens.
Cinema is also very popular in our country and is recognized as a component that both influences culture and is influenced by it. Even so, the state and issues of this industry have to date been studied less often in statistical and precise terms.
What are the most popular genres in Iran and the world? Does Hollywood cinema earn its revenue from the domestic or the global box office? Is the distribution of cinema halls in Iran equitable? Why do people go to cinemas less often? What is the impact of internet-based video technologies on the future of this industry? These questions cannot be answered except with statistics.
Namafar's statistical treasure in cinema enriches the thinking of those interested in culture about this industry and makes us look at the seventh art in a different way. An art that can unlock astonishing capacities in the economy, politics, and of course culture.
On the occasion of 21 Shahrivar (August–September), National Cinema Day, in this post we have looked at some of Namafar's most important productions in the cinema industry.
