Children of Heaven

This is probably one of the best films of Iran I have seen recent time. I liked this movie very much and this film is a very live story of a single family running with simple life style with little income. The main focuses are two children who are brother-sister.
The story starts with the theft of a pair of shoes of the girl Zahaara who has only 1 pair of school shoes which was lost by Ali, her brother. The family was rude enough not to tolerate the losing of the shoe and those children kept that loss in secret. Then Ali and Zahaara shared a common school shoe which was quite old.
Then oneday, Zahaara found the same type of shoes that she lost with some other girl in the legs and later a friendship among them grew up. Oneday, Zahaara found that the girl sold that pair of shoes and got a new one.
Then comes a long running competition for Ali and he determined to get the prize (a pair of shoes) for her sister. I saw a big thing in that little boy [he learned a great lesson in a little age of 9] and felt some liquid feeling in me seeing that boy running. He ran and ran and unfortunately got 1st and got the 1st prize in stead of 3rd with shoes. Actually, the competition was tough enough and he ran hard and became 1st. However, the bad luck was, he could not bring the pair of shoes for her sister.
Though, lastly I found that their father was buying shoes for both of them which was a good thing to see. After all, the movie is so much full of lively thoughts that I could not help admiring the sense of life of the director of the film. The films establishes a great picture in front of me about the films and long history of Iran. At the same time, it reminded me that I don't have a sister of my own and now I wish for a cute baby of my own.
Motto: Love for family member. It reminds my child life. It resembles my growing up with a hope of whole family, hard work and success. It helps me to look into the core of life.
