Festival audiences director's commentary on popular votes

Ali Ashtianipour, director of the Forty -third Fajr Film Festival, referring to the process of selecting audiences, said: “This process is in line with previous years and in coordination with the past years. The festival's secretary is done.

He added: Last night, the names of four films that had earned the highest points from the popular votes were announced, and every night, four films will be removed from the list to finally remain seven films in the final three days between the seven. The competition film will be formed and will remain until the closing day.

Ashtianipour emphasized the transparency of the counting of the vote, explaining: “No film shown in the extraordinary session will be voted on. Only tickets that through the system Semfa And with the restriction of purchasing 2 tickets for each mobile line and have a tracking code, they are included in the vote count. Extraordinary tickets, cities, tickets allocated to the owners of the works and institutions lack the intercept code and thus are not participated in voting; Therefore, the votes will be calculated only by the people who have purchased the ticket directly.

The audience's selected film manager said about the process of collecting and processing the vote: The intercepting codes after the vote by the system Semfa They are available to us. These codes are applied to our special tables and then transferred to the cinema voting system to accurately rank the movie.

Ashtianipour reacted to recent rumors in cyberspace about film ranking, saying: “Unfortunately, we have seen unofficial information and speculation in cyberspace since yesterday. This information is invalid and invalid to us. The only official source for informing this is the cinema house site and the festival's news headquarters. I urge everyone to refrain from publishing and following such rumors so that there is no harm to the transparency of the voting process and that the real vote of the people will be protected.

He pointed out that the competition for the selected title continues, stating: “All films are voting until the last moment of February 7th and are recorded in our tables.” The names announced so far have earned the highest points, but it is possible to replace other films in the coming days, so we have to wait until the end of the festival and avoid any early judgment.
