We are into it. I mean politics. We are interested in politics and its games. We Iranians I mean. It has its roots in us. From familial after-dinner political discussions to the chats when standing in queues or buying newspaper or in university at lunch, to anywhere you like. Our art has been away from politics for as much as possible in these years. It has been kept away. For good reasons. Unless you know a way out. Some do.
.There still remains something to be said: i.e. the difference between taking a sentence and framing it. A sort of fishing. It is a good time for that in the Middle East.
Artists should be careful. Viewers understand whether the artist is talking or fishing.
