8.5 points. very small story.
The process of searching for the corresponding topic is also found in other Abbas films. The protagonist is running on the road and will unconsciously contact the lover under the olive tree in the chase through the woods. It was a long road, but Ahmed kept running because friends would have been fired if they didn't have homework.
In the film, the language of the adults speaks loudly to themselves, orders, accusations and self-esteem, and completely ignores the children's voice. Ahmed's voice is like a gnat, and no one listens. These things have a great emotional resonance.

    A day in the life of Ahmed, a condensed children's film. Handing in homework is the top priority in life, and I have felt the same way. He traveled from town to town, but found nothing from day to night. In the world of adults, children are completely ignored. With this seemingly simple film, Abbas not only praised the friendship between children, but also criticized Iran's traditional education. Under the pure gaze of a child, the bossy expressions of an adult make him look ugly.

    #BIFF# 35mm film flashes magical red and green spots. Looking back at the early Abbas is tantamount to discovering parts of it that have remained unchanged to this day, such as the reversal of the structure and the echoes of repeated scenes. The subject of obedience makes it more than a straightforward children's movie.
