An interview with Hossein Jafaraian

On Sunday February 26th we will know if Iranian filmmaker, Asghar Farhadi, will be the second filmmaker in history of Oscar to win two Oscars for The Best Foreign Language Film Award after Vitorrio De Sica, the Italian filmmaker.
Asghar Farhadi’s The Salesman has won several awards internationally and has been admired by many film critics. But there are those who believe this film is not as good as it has been claimed and if it wins an Oscar it’s because of the Trump’s policies on travel ban.
To learn more about this situation, we have interviewed the well-known and talented cinematographer of The Salesman, Hossein Jafarian.
As reminder here also the message of Asghar Farhadi about his decision for not attending the Oscar ceremony:
“I regret to announce via this statement that I have decided to not attend the Academy Awards Ceremony alongside my fellow members of the cinematic community.
