The bulk of national produced movies are designated to teaching nanotechnology to the students and a part of it is concerned with the domestic industry.

Applications of nanotechnology in petroleum industries, textile, construction, automobile, medicine, agriculture, packaging, water treatment, environment, nanotechnology equipments, and capabilities of domestic companies in each of those fields are elaborated by the related experts in 'Nano and Industry' movie.

Public education and promotion is one of the topics of the prospective nanotechnology strategy document. This topic is oriented towards public information about and promotion of science, technology, and nano industry. Thus, it has public audience. Several methods are used to run the programs of this topic one of which is transmitting information through educational movies.
