Iran is home to one of the richest cinematic traditions in the world, built on empathy, resistance, and human connection.jacobin.com/2026/04/iran-c…

fascinating by @mukulkesavan @Telegraph "These films are seldom about the natives killed by these wars"

Sharif University of Technology in Tehran, one of Iran’s top science and engineering institutions, was bombed tonight, and a number of schools reportedly damaged. Founded in 1966 (as Aryamehr University), Sharif is a cornerstone of Iran’s scientific and academic life. Striking and destroying universities and schools is not just an attack on buildings,it is an attack on a country’s future.
