One of the best movies about Kurdish people
29 April 2023
This movie perfectly reflects the life of Kurdish people in Iran, especially those who live on the borders. There is no exaggeration about their life and there are even more tragic stories about Kurdish people in Iran and the heartbreaking death of underage porters who carry goods on their backs across the Iran-Iraq border from soldiers' bullets or cold weather. Moreover, the socioeconomic characteristics of Kurdish society are reflected flawlessly. Poverty, individuals' occupation, lack of access to basic education, public health, and utilities because of inequalities reflected in their life.

The movie also reflects the connection between the Kurdish people in Iran and Iraq through the conversation between the two children in the tea house. When the Iraqi Kurd gives a picture and tells him to pay the money the next time that you come, the director is going to mention the trust between them. One thing that was unique was using drink and giving it to the horses which is illegal in Iran and I don't know how government let that happen.

My Favorite Movie
31 October 2022
This movie was a piece of art along with being highly informative. It tells people about Ba'athism in Syria, and it also tells audience about the human spirit, friendship, and solidarity.

It starts with the first twenty minutes of humor and character development. Then, the film changes its tone by showing more poignant scenes. But it still creates emotional harmony and combines laughter and tears of sadness. The movie describes elements of the Ba'athism psychology demonstrated by a teacher in a variety of ways.

The acting is pretty much flawless. The child actor gives an admirable performance

I would highly recommend watching this movie, although it is very heartbreaking.
