Nasseroddin Shah Actor-e Cinema or Once Upon a Time, Cinema (1932) by Mohsen Makhmalbaf


Set in the Qajar era, the film follows the character known as the cinematographer (Mehdi Hashemi) as he shows films to the Shah (Ezzatolah Entezami). The film shows clips from older Iranian films from the silent age onwards. The Shah falls in love with an old film character, Golnaar (Fatemeh Motamed-Aria). After she leaves the movie, she appears in and enters the "real" world. (From Wikipedia)
