From initial reluctance to unpublished documents; How did Ali Larijani end up in front of the camera of the "head of the organization"?
🔹 Ali Sadriniya, producer of the documentary film "The Head of the Organization": for the first time in 2022, we discussed with the late Larijani the idea of making such a film. So, he said he wasn't very interested in the past. In 2024, when our conversations became more frequent and the project gained depth, he agreed, and we held two discussion meetings with him.
🔹 Sedrinia says in the Tasnim panel discussion that during these conversations, the late Larijani brought his handwritten notes and his personal memories, and even provided the production team with some of the unpublished documents and notes - materials that are going to be presented for the first time in "The Head of the Organization". 🔹 Ali Sedrinia: He came to the meetings with handwritten notes and also shared with us some unpublished documents. These conversations shed light on both his short tenure as head in 1980 and his long leadership period from 1993 to 2004.
