Several foreigners have also landed in Iranian prison in recent weeks, including two French citizens, a Swedish tourist and a Polish scientist, the Associated Press has reported, prompting concerns that Iran is trying to leverage all these arrests as bargaining chips in the negotiations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Nyrabia, who also heads the International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam (IDFA), points out that Iran\u2019s ongoing crackdown on its film community also comprises <span class=\"s1\">internationally known Iranian doc directors Mina Keshavarz (\u201cThe Art of Living in Danger\u201d) and Firouzeh Khosravani (<a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2020\/film\/global\/radiograph-of-a-family-firouzeh-khosrovani-idfa-1234835079\/\">\u201cRadiograph of a Family\u201d<\/a>), both arrested in their Tehran homes in May and subsequently released on bail but banned from traveling, despite no charges being filed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>He notes that over the years, when the West and Iran were at loggerheads, \u201cthese [directors] were the people who were breaking the barrier and making everyone in the world connect with Iranian culture and find empathy and identification with the people and society in Iran.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rasoulof, who won the 2020 Berlin Golden Bear for \u201cThere Is No Evil\u201d \u2014 which consists of four connected episodes centered on the death penalty and repression of personal freedom in Iran \u2014 is among the country\u2019s most prominent directors, even though his films are banned in Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Rasoulof and his frequent collaborator, the director Al-Ahmad, were detained last Friday for posting an appeal urging Iranian security forces to stop using weapons using the hashtag #put_your_gun_down following protests in May in the southwestern city of Abadan where there were clashes with police. The uproar was prompted by a building collapse that resulted in 41 people being killed.<\/p>\n<p>The appeal against police violence for which Rasoulof and Al-Ahmad have been arrested was signed by at least 70 other members of Iran\u2019s film community, including Panahi according to reports.<\/p>\n<p>Panahi, who is among Iran\u2019s best-known directors, known globally for prizewinning works such as \u201cThe Circle,\u201d \u201cOffside,\u201d \u201cThis is Not a Film,\u201d and 2015 Berlin Golden Bear winner <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2015\/film\/festivals\/after-taxi-wins-berlin-golden-bear-jafar-panahi-asks-for-his-film-to-be-shown-in-iran-1201434793\/\">\u201cTaxi\u201d<\/a> \u2014 in which he thumbs his nose at censorship, poverty and the oppression of women in Iran \u2014 went to the prosecutor\u2019s office in Tehran on Monday out of solidarity to inquire about the cases of his two incarcerated fellow filmmakers. He was jailed on the spot.<\/p>\n<p>In 2011, both Rasoulof and Panahi where sentenced to six years in prison and a 20-year ban on filmmaking on vague charges of \u201cpropaganda against the system.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rasoulof\u2019s sentence at the time was later suspended and he was released on bail. After 2014, the climate for filmmakers improved during the mandate of more progressive Iranian president Hassan Rouhani. Rasoulof and Panahi have continued to make films without government permission that have been released internationally to great acclaim.<\/p>\n<p>But now a more conservative backlash is being unleashed under the government of Raisi, who took office in Aug. 2021, and has been crushing dissent as it faces escalating unrest amid the country\u2019s growing economic crisis.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnable or unwilling to tackle the many severe challenges facing Iran, the government has resorted to its repressive reflex of arresting popular critics,\u201d said Tara Sepehri Far, senior Iran researcher at Human Rights Watch, in a statement. \u201cThere is no reason to believe these recent arrests are anything but cynical moves to deter popular outrage at the government\u2019s widespread failures,\u201d she noted.<\/p>\n<p>Half a dozen Iranian film personalities declined to be interviewed for this article for fear of reprisal.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, top film festivals around the world, including Berlin, Locarno, Venice and Cannes, have issued statements condemning the recent arrests of the three filmmakers and \u201cthe wave of repression obviously in progress in Iran against its artists,\u201d as a Cannes statement put it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Said Nyrabia: \u201cWe know that these appeals are being heard, and that it is essential that anyone who prosecutes these filmmakers doesn\u2019t forget that this is a very visible act.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He added: \u201cWe still have hope that President Raisi realizes that they should not burn down the last bridges. And Iranian filmmakers are the last bridges.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2022\/film\/news\/mohammad-rasoulof-jafar-panahi-arrested-iran-1235315583\/\">Iranian
