Abstract

Many films promote certain behaviors which are dissonant with social norms - such as violence - The production and distribution of these films go hand in hand with a lack of supervision on the ground. To improve this situation, movies should be produced to raise the level of awareness of the audience, instead of targeting the audience's feelings, which is the fundamental mission of cinema. As for the heterogeneous criteria, films and programs are divided into different types, which are the reasons and the roots of criminalization from one criterion to another. This study aimed to investigate the principles and foundations of criminalization in conjunction with the spread of violence in the cinema. To this end, the principles and foundations of the criminalization of the distribution of these films have been studied by the descriptive-analytic method. The findings show that, based on the principles and foundations of criminalization of the promotion of violence, two strategies are necessary. The first solution is to revise the frameworks and policies related to the theme of movies so that the production stage of the theme is carefully regulated in the preventive aspects of crime, otherwise, criminal law, such as the second one, regards to according to jurisprudential and fundamental legal principles such as verses, hadiths, the rule of law, the principle of legal patriarchy, the principle of legal ethics and the principle of public interest, it prohibits broadcasting programs promoting violence. Considering these principles and roots, it should be noted that the portrayal of violence in cinema is balanced and reasonably sound, but the continuous and varied depictions of violence on a large scale have irreparable consequences
