About IRAN
A home for original Iranian short films.
IRAN is a ticket-based, bilingual streaming home with no subscription. You pay only for the film you want to watch — and the lion's share goes directly to the filmmaker.
Our mission
We believe Iranian short cinema deserves a home where its authentic voice is heard — without algorithms, without subscriptions, and without unfair middlemen.
Every film is selected with care. Every ticket is a direct act of support. Every viewer is part of a small but real community.
“Cinema, when it is allowed to be its own voice, has nothing to hide.”
Principles
Three commitments we don't break.
Fair to filmmakers
The majority of every ticket goes directly to the artist. Transparent payouts, no hidden cuts.
Curated, never crowded
We add films when they earn their place — not to fill a feed. Quality over quantity, always.
Bilingual by design
Persian and English at parity — both languages are first-class on every screen, every film.
