Abstract
While connected to big production companies, Iranian cinema managed to produce some of the most influential movies with deep cultural impact. Swayed by the political climate of rebellion around them, some Iranian filmmakers made movies that encouraged the dignity of rebellion and offered these rebel characters on the silver screen as larger than life. This is how a few films reviewed in this chapter had an impact on Iranian public consciousness.
