Italian Filmmaker Now Living in Iran: Iranians are Kind, Civilized, and Most Beautiful People
Independent Aggregator of Iran-related News/Eevnts, Kodoom.com: Italian visual effects artist and film/game maker Diego Vida really likes living in Iran now according to his statements made on Globos TV. Vida, known for his visual effects work in Hollywood movies such as Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol, Fast & Furious and Need for Speed, says he has been living in Iran for a while (following an Turkish animation production made in Iran's Kish island) and despite the image and perception that the Western media is presenting, Iran is a pleasant country and Iranians are compassionate and modern people.
Vida, a former professional tennis player, says: "I go to church every week in Iran. Contrary to what Western media writes and depicts, there are no restrictions and problems against religious minorities in this country."
Vida says Iranian capital of Tehran is a safe and vibrant place and pop music is heard on every street: "Iranians are decent and civilized. The staff at Tehran Airport are more helpful and polite than staff at Italian airports. Iranians are among the most beautiful people in the world. .. Tehran metro is beautiful and modern. When an elderly or child rides the busy subway, many people offer their seats in respect. This is a rare phenomenon in Italy!"
Vida emphasizes that the Western media and especially the TVs only reflect poor neighborhoods from Tehran: "There are poor people and districts all over the world. For example, if you go to New York, and this is America, nobody will believe the level of poverty in some areas. This is no different in Iran."
