Erken Dönem İran Sinemasından Aksanlı Sinemaya: Hamid Naficy ile Söyleşi

Hamid Naficy, a leading authority in cultural studies, media, and cinema, was interviewed by Özde Çeliktemel-Thomen during the first International Conference on Early Cinema in the Balkans and Near East, which met in Athens in June, 2015. Naficy's thoughts, especially those appearing in his latest books (Naficy 2011, 2012), point to parallels between the history of early Iranian cinema and the history of Middle Eastern/Balkan cinema.
