Even though cinema in Iran can be traced back to the early 1900s, it had not yet found its footing only to later emerge as a populist art in the form of public storytelling. Strong opposition by the religious leaders was felt due to the nature of the cinema which was viewed as against the Islamic principles.The Bas-reliefs in Persepolis is one of the first visual representations in the history of Iran.
