Have you watched this movie? I hope you already watched this movie because this movie is a very good movie. This movie was directed by Majid Majidi and distributed by Miramax Films. This is an Iranian movie, created at 1997. Cited from Wikipedia, film was the first Iranian Film to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. I have watched this movie three times at the Television. I love this movie. The acting of actor and the actress were very good.
The story is about a brother and a sister and their adventure to get a pair of shoes. Brother named Ali and his young sister named Zahra. One day, Zahra’s shoes lost in Ali way home from the shoemaker. They decided to hide this accident from their parents because they no money to buy a replacement pair and they fear that they will get punishment to lose Zahra’s shoes. The solution for this problem is they share Ali’s sneakers, in the morning Zahra will wear it to school and at midday Ali’s turn. Ali always came late to the school because he waiting Zahra in the alley to change their shoes. Finally, Ali saw a footrace at his school then he saw the third prize is a new pair of sneakers. Then Ali decided to enter that race and hope that he can be a winner in the third position. Accidentally, Ali came up with the first winner then wins another prize. During his victory, he is crying all the time because he feels so disappoint to be a first winner. One day, their father bought them new shoes; a pair of white sneaker for Ali and a pair of red shoes for Zahra.
I think this movie is very great. The premise of this movie is interesting. How is relationship between brother and sister are constructed and a brother and a sister who love one another. This movie is a perfect movie for children and I think adults will like to watch this movie too. This movie is about the adventures of children and the children aren’t build a robot or the comic’s things. This is about children who losses their shoes. “When you are kid, you know you are not likely squished by a giant lizard, but losing something that has been entrusted to you? And getting in trouble at school? That’s big time” (quoted by Rogers Ebert).
This is holiday time, why don’t you ask your children, nephew, niece, sister or brother to watch this movie. This movie is full of moral messages that we can share with our family.. Have a nice holiday.. thank you for your attention...
