The Right of Fame; The Mutual Rights and Regulations Between Film Makers And A Religious Government

The “law of art” is the right to discipline and regulate the work of professional performers in conventional art forms such as theater. In this paper, I aim to explore the right of fame for filmmakers and actors in terms of the principles of a religious government and from the perspective of Islamic juridical-legal views. Focusing on the juridical-legal aspects of the fame of actors and actresses in a religious government, Regardless of the fame earned from public or private media, the questions raised what is the role of religious government in the “law of art”? And if the role is conceived, on what legal basis this role is defined? Basically, the relationship between the government and filmmakers is not limited to the right to fame. Reviewing the public-private rights in the law of art and media leads to investigating issues such as the legal ban of the filmmakers and actors or their spiritual and financial support. Taking into consideration the legal rules, liability, and the law of the artist, the present inquiry aims to discuss the basis and development of the law. In this regard, I presented a model based on a descriptive-analytical method of studying juridical literature. Studying the issue can pave the way to clarify the purpose of supporting the rights of filmmakers and actors, as well as the fame of the movies, society, and the government. Moreover, this study shows the legal aspects of the government's observation and legal conditions for the limitation of the filmmakers and actors in their movie contracts.
