Relations between Oman and Iran date back to several historical eras, and they share a rich history of joint cooperation not only at the economic, commercial and security levels, but also at the scientific and cultural levels. Relations between the two countries have witnessed cooperation and exchanges at the level of translations, arts, handicrafts and some creative industries, as well as at the media, printing and publishing levels.

The fact is that the cultural and civilizational richness that distinguishes the two countries needs an expansion capable of supporting the plans and visions they aspire to; because the cinema sector in Tehran, for example, is among the leading sectors in the world. What director Abbas Kiarostami, nicknamed the (Philosopher of Iranian Cinema) has provided since 1970, of artistic visions that have reached the world, in addition to the flourishing of creative industries related to drama and television, can be used to develop this sector through institutional artistic programs that aim to develop visions and creative capabilities in a way that contributes to multiple artistic productions.
