volume of Hamid Naficy's *A Social History of Iranian Cinema*.
Hamid Naficy's *A Social History of Iranian Cinema* covers the late
nineteenth century to the early twenty-first and addressing documentaries,
popular genres, and art films, it explains Iran’s peculiar cinematic
production modes, as well as the role of cinema and media in shaping
modernity and a modern national identity in Iran. This comprehensive social
history unfolds across four volumes. Volume 4 has just been published, so
the entire set is now available for purchase, review, or teaching.

years of Iranian cinema.

Islamic Revolution and its immediate aftermath.
