The background of the story of the breadwinner is that when the Taliban was in power, it issued a decree that was extremely unfair to women. Women are not allowed to go to school, work, or go out without a man. It can be said that these laws are extremely demeaning to women.
The girl in the movie lives in such a social environment. The girl's father lost his job, and in order to live, the girl followed her father to the street to buy items. Unbelievable, his father was forced to go to jail, making life even worse. The girl and her mother went to the prison to report but were severely beaten. In desperation, the girl had to cut her long hair, pretend to be a boy to buy and sell things, and work to earn money to support her family.
On the day the family planned to leave their hometown, with the help of a kind uncle, the girl finally rescued her father. The mother and sister and brother also chose to stay and wait for the girl. Although the final outcome is unknown, they may meet, or they may get lost.
After watching this movie, although the style of painting seems to be very relaxed, the story behind it is very heavy.
