[custom_adv] Kimiai started his career as an assistant director and made his debut, Come Stranger, in 1968. With his second film, Qeysar (1969), he and Dariush Mehrjui with The film The Cow, caused a historical change in Iranian film industry. [custom_adv] But Dariush Mehrjui's film with more artistic values has sustained its level of greatness through history of cinema. Qeysar became a great success at the box office and opened the way for young, talented filmmakers who never had a chance in the industry before. [custom_adv] His films deal with people at the margin of the society with his anti-hero characters that die at the end. Many directors of commercial films imitated his Kaiser/ Qeysar for about 6 years, but in the last decade he focuses on young antagonists. [custom_adv] He usually writes his screenplays, using slang dialogs based on ordinary traditional people's dialect but some find those dialogues unrealistic and weird.
