Good Iranian movies to practice Persian

I’ll admit it while learning Persian through a film can be fun, there are a few disadvantages for beginners. The spoken and written forms are very different, so without a teacher you will getting confused. Or maybe, you will just get few words and also it can be difficult to keep track of what you’ve learned, because it takes time and effort to take notes, and we want to have an enjoyable experience in watching the movie, without having to be interrupted every minute to write down a word and check the dictionary.

I recommend short animation for kids. you can find many movie and cartoons and Iranian website (like youtube) APARAT.COM

Beginning with movies might not be the easiest way to learn Persian, unless you practice them with someone (supervised movie sessions) who is aware of the nuances of the conversational Persian lg, expressions, accent, etc. I would go with podcasts, language exchange with native speakers, books with listening sections, etc. first.

A great update: I’d recommend podcasts like Chai and Conversation and platforms like Aparat—a Persian version of YouTube—for short videos, animations, movies, and more. Many of these are dubbed in Persian with English (and other language) subtitles. An example, The Spider Within: https://www.aparatkids.com/w/njzo6

Great Iranian films for learning Persian include: Children of Heaven – clear, simple language, The Color of Paradise – slow and emotional, The Song of Sparrows – natural daily speech, A Separation – modern, real-life conversations (a bit faster), Start with subtitles, repeat scenes, and note new words. Great for beginners!
