Ahmad Zabeti Jahromi, at the booth of Center for Development of Documentary, Experimental and Animated Cinema at 35th Tehran International Book Fair, said: The contents of book “Correlation of Science and Art in Documentary Cinema” are among contents that I have idea of teaching in university classes. In the field of film production, especially in the field of documentaries, I have had, but never had opportunity to collect them. I compiled contents of book based on my notes and this book was collected and ready for publication after two years.

He continued: In terms of scientific content, contents of book include two categories: contents that are directly related to documenting and activity of documentary makers, next contents are about experimental filmmakers and the field of animation. So, content of book is completely aligned with activities of Center for Development of Documentary, Experimental and Animated Cinema.

Dr. Zabeti Jahromi added: Some of these materials are basic, others are my personal opinion based on years of study, experience, training and watching movies. For researcher, watching movie is as important as reading book. Film is a text that can be learned from, many films by Iranian and non-Iranian directors are introduced in this book, I always prioritize watching films by Iranian directors. For this reason, in this book and elsewhere in my writings, I have mentioned works of young documentary filmmakers who have innovation in their films. I think this topic is attractive and motivating for these friends whose works have been noticed in a scientific work.
