little flowers in the workbook

At the beginning of the film, through the teacher's mouth, it is said that one must abide by the rules

In the middle, through the mouth of Ahmed's grandfather at the entrance of the village, he said that if you want to be a useful person to society, you must obey the rules

What does the world look like in the eyes of a child?

I took the workbook from my deskmate by mistake

Failure to return will result in expulsion from the same table

It's possible for Ahmed to never see his tablemate again

And it was caused by him

So returning the workbook is more important to him than anything else

I ran back and forth twice to the next village and couldn't find the same table

After several twists and turns without success, I can't even eat

In the end, there was no way

The last shot stops when the teacher opens the workbook at Ahmed's desk

It was a small flower picked by the old grandpa who was leading the way by Ahmed in the next village.

The director still chooses to keep the beauty in the child's world

In fact, the child did his homework

Just not written in a workbook

What's wrong?

The teacher said to teach the children to obey the rules

In fact, it's just that the teacher is dead brains and admits the truth.

write homework in a workbook

The teacher doesn't even ask who wrote it

Approved a big "excellent" word, how ironic

It's important to obey the rules, but sometimes you have to be flexible

The photographic composition is rigorous, and the piano sound and music are joyful and escape

White walls, stained windows, stone steps, patchwork house

Such scenery is rare in urbanized cities and even rural areas.

In the countryside where the pace of life is slow

An eight-year-old sticks to his rules in his own way

Children are not unruly

Give them more patience and listen to them

As long as it is pure and kind

there is nothing unforgivable

    Abbas: Filming children's scenes is harder than filming Marlon Brando! At the beginning of "Where Is My Friend's Home", the blue-clothed boy Mohammed's workbook is torn by the teacher but he can't cry. I have never seen a very pleasant surprise. Abbas immediately tore up the photo, and the child cried on the spot, so the shooting was successfully completed~…

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?
