The figure is significant as it indicates the production of six certificates each month.

Ebrahim Raisi took office as new Iranian president in August 2021.

He appointed Mohammad-Mehdi Esmaeili as minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance.

Esmaeili picked Mohammad Khazaei as the head of the country's cinema organization who in early November appointed the new members of a council in charge of issuing certificates for Iranian films.

Since the new members of the council were appointed less than ten months ago, they have issued certificates for 54 new films which is regarded as a considerable figure.
