      A Heart of Gold - A Brief Review of "Barron"

      In the 1980s, a large number of war-torn Afghan civilians were forced to flock to Iran, struggling to survive. Barron, one of the protagonists of the film, is one of the refugees. His father, who worked as a black worker on a construction site in Iran, broke his leg in an accident.

In the days that followed, Barron met Latif, an Iranian...

      "The fire of separation sets the heart on fire"

      Barron didn't say a word.
      Latif always thinks about her being on the construction site, and she has become different in Tehran
      , a refugee settlement. She left because of her status. He went to find her. She supported the whole family with her tender and clean hands . Going down, going alone and pouring out all that she has survived in the misery that cannot be escaped, but the cold wind can't blow away the hairpin he left on the brim of his hat, and the rain can't drown her muddy...

      16 year old love

      I remember saying in that movie that everyone knows the name, when one day you fall in love with the person you once hated the most, this feeling is the most deadly.

      We always try to prove that we don't fall into stereotypes, the traps that our predecessors have fallen into countless times. In the end, he was always elated, and happily fell another dog to eat shit in the same place. There is nothing new under this Sunshine. This is life.

      love with heart

        Because of the poor family background, the girl had to go to the construction site to work, and the construction site did not accept girls. So she disguised herself as a boy. Doing things that only men can do, and then cooking for the workers, spending all day alone in a dilapidated room full of condiments.
        The boy didn't like him from the first day she came, broke her things, spat at her cooking, and destroyed her confidence.
        But when the curtain of the broken house was...

      2007/09/17. This is the work of the director "Children of Heaven" in 2001. Although the Iranian films repeat the theme of the genre again and again, each film is still so beautiful and moving. The transformation of the protagonist in the play is a bit difficult to explain, but I absolutely believe that his lies are accompanied by sincere tears, especially the smile at the end, he is so cute, and I have to forgive him for his many voyeuristic and insane behaviors. When I saw it, I thought that th

      The director is very careful, and the front is foreshadowing that the male protagonist is a young impulsive and reckless person, so the later development does not feel abrupt. And more innocent than "Love of Hawthorn Tree"......
