Although such a simple film, there are traces of the director's meticulous craftsmanship everywhere. The discipline that the teacher talked about in class and what Amer's grandfather said about hitting the child once every two weeks if there is something or nothing to always remind the child of the importance of discipline form a certain echo. So that the child looked for a friend's house despite the difficulties, and finally helped the friend to complete the homework. However, the teacher has always emphasized that homework first and then play (doing housework), but every protagonist in the film has to help his parents with housework, sometimes even more than an eight-year-old child can bear. This should also be the social problem in Iran shown by the director. The second is the staged fate of the people who made windows and doors in two different eras. The wooden doors and windows made by the old man seem to be falling into the torrent of the times, and he himself admits that he will not do it again. But when he got home, he found that there was still work going on in his small workshop. On the one hand, it may come from his liking and the sense of accomplishment after completion. On the other hand, it may be that he does not know anything else, and the lonely and widowed old man without relatives and no reason can only make a living with this. Although the latter is high-spirited in business, the iron window may not have the same sense of accomplishment as the old man, and many times the old man does not accept him. In my impression they are not beautiful and have no ornamental. Finally, I spit out a short comment on the homepage of the movie 8000➕.
