- "A Heart Warming Film From
Iran"
- Director: Majid
Majidi
Synopsis
Directed by Majid Majidi
(Children of Heaven, Color of Paradise, Baran), this Iranian
film is set in a working class milieu, and it tells the story of a
teenage boy, who after his father is killed in a traffic accident,
has to leave school and start working in order to support his
family. He is proud of being, at such a young age, the person
bringing the bread to his poor family. But things change when his
widowed mother marries a police officer. He regards this as a double
betrayal, and he tries to make life for his family impossible. After
putting his two young sisters in jeopardy (in a domestic oven, in
one of the film's best scenes), he flees to a port city. The
policeman follows him, and in the road back they found themselves in
the desert, in a final chase scene that is among the best thing I
ever saw. Eventually, and in extremis, adoptive father and son
reconciles. Perhaps the best thing of the movie is the portrayal of
the policeman. His manners are a bit rough and unpolished, but in
his heart he is a good man; it would have been much easier for the
film to portray him as a monster, but happily this was avoided.
Another triumph for the humanistic Iranian cinema that surprised the
movie-watching world in the 1990s. |
