"جواد گنجی دوست و برادر عزیزم و کارگردان سینما به دست ماموران کشته شد.
این فقط قتل یک انسان نبود؛ حذف آگاهانه ی صدا اندیشه و رویایی بود که می خواست به فرهنگ و تصویر جان بدهد.
ما قرار بود فیلم بسازیم روایت کنیم و آینده ای انسانی تر را شکل دهیم؛
اما در سرزمینی که قدرت از تصویر و اندیشه می ترسد رویا جرم است و خلاقیت با مرگ پاسخ داده می شود.
کشتن جواد فقط پایان زندگی او نبود؛
نمونه ای دیگر از خشونت سیستماتیک علیه هنر آزادی بیان و حق زیستنِ انسانی است.
من مانده ام با پرسشی که باید پاسخ داده شود نه فقط سوگواری:
در کشوری که رویا را می کشند بهای انسان بودن را تا کجا قرار است با جان بپردازیم"

On Friday, January 9, 2026 (19 Dey 1404), Javad Ganji, a 39-year-old filmmaker and assistant director in cinema and television from Hamedan, was killed by direct gunfire from government forces during the nationwide protests in the Sadeghieh area of Tehran.
Amir Mahdi Nouri wrote:
Javad Ganji, my dear friend and brother and a film director, was killed by the authorities. This was not just the murder of a person; it was a deliberate erasure of a voice, a thought, and a dream that sought to breathe life into culture and imagery. We were supposed to make films, narrate stories, and shape a more humane future; but in a land where power fears imagery and thought, dreams are considered crimes and creativity is met with death. Killing Javad was not just the end of his life; it was another example of systematic violence against art, freedom of expression, and the right to live humanely. I am left with a question that needs answering, not just mourning: In a country where dreams are killed, how far are we expected to pay the price of being human with our lives?
