The short film titled “Corruption on Earth” is about a fictional award ceremony for the “Best Regime in the World”. The prize is awarded to Iran. The excellent political and social achievements of the political leadership were praised in a laudatory speech. In an emotional acceptance speech, Iran’s supreme political leader Ali Khamenei insists on going into detail about his regime’s excellent achievements in person.
The filmic recordings are mixed with real cell phone recordings of the current Iran protests and in this way combine reality and fiction, they are intended to leave the viewer in a state of emotional chaos.
Omid Mirnour
I am a German-Iranian filmmaker from Berlin working in different genres such as fictional series, documentaries, music videos or commercials.
I have always been interested in drawing attention to social issues and being a voice for unheard voices. These are the projects I am most passionate about. In my opinion, far too few filmmakers use their skills to draw attention to such issues.
My very first film project in my life was a series of interviews with homeless people from Berlin who told me about their life on the streets. There I taught myself how to film and edit and learned more about filmmaking video by video. Later, I concentrated only on directing and producing films. Filmmaking is my personal outlet to filter my emotions. I love
