Kinder des Himmels: Directed by Majid Majidi. With Mohammad Amir Naji, Amir Farrokh Hashemian, Bahare Seddiqi, Nafise Jafar-Mohammadi. After a boy loses his sister’s pair of shoes, he goes on a series of adventures in order to find them. When he can’t, he tries a new way to “win” a new pair.

“Wow, what can I say? Every bit of this film is so warm! It really looked at the world from a childu0026#39;s perspective. Every single scene is inundated with sweetness and the innocence of children. How they share one pair of shoes was amazing…and heartbreaking. How the little sister had no confidence in her brothers shoes was shown in such a warm and effective way. The ultimate despair Ali felt when he won was also so heartbreaking. Ali and his sister are both so cute and they can really act. This film can easily move one to tears. Do watch it!”
