Ahmed and the Flower (Brief Review)

What I see is the gap between the world of children and the world of adults. The adults in the film seem to have never really listened to the boy's speech. A mother who does housework, a grandfather who knows how to "educate", and a businessman who is a doorman are all like this. Except for the boy who moved the door and the old carpenter, no one seemed to be listening to him. If you have had childhood experiences, you may feel that some small things are trivial in the eyes of adults, but they are big things in the eyes of children.

In this way, we understand why Ahmed is so persistent.

At the same time, I also saw two interesting points: the director used the workbook and education to metaphorize the Iranian cultural system and since the old carpenter gave the little flower to Amud, everything has become better... The ending is really gentle, directly add very.

Love this poster and give a poem along with the picture:

Across the detours and stone paths, there is a friend's house, and there you have to reap a daisy flower

Where Is the Friend's House? quotes

  • Grandfather's Friend: What I mean to say is, suppose the kid did nothing wrong. What would you do? What then?

    Grandfather: I'd find an excuse and give him a beating every other week. So he wouldn't forget.
