Esfandiar Monfaredzadeh who is film composer


In parallel to his cinematic activities and through his well-known songs such as “Friday” and “Nightly 1”, he tried to represent persian people by picturing their pains and sorrows under the totalitarian Shah’s regime. In 1973, he was sentenced to jail for his social and political ideas. However, after his release he would not remain silent and with his works (songs such as “Gonjishkak-e Ashi Mashi”, “Childish (Koudakaneh)”, “Nightly 2” or “Friday for Friday”), he accompanied and supported people in the upcoming revolution.
