No one has been as zealous for documentary cinema as I am for fiction cinema. I tried to reach the documentary and the documentary in the form of a story. So that the audience is witnessing a fictional cinema, but at some moments feel that they are watching a documentary film.
Shamohammadi stated that speaking in front of the family members of Martyr Zeineddin is very hard.
Babaei, an actor in the movie, said he had a month to lose weight to play in the role.
