Another great Green Frog Film!

I watched this film in Sydney at one of the Green Frog screenings. I didn't know what to expect. I just went in because I've been following my work and where do they know how to pick a Film. I seen somewhere in the promotion for this that it won the Adelaide film festival that I can see why it is a really incredible film with a great story that continues to unfold it gives you a great insight to what life in Iran is like.The Q&A at the end of the screening with the director was really cool as well. I really appreciate his purpose behind making the Film and I'm really grateful that I got to watch it. Thank you to the team at Green Frog for bringing thisincredible Film to Australia, we need more of it.

The fates of poor people in a primitive capitalism and a culture that put money first

The fates of poor people in a primitive capitalism and a culture that put money firstThe drama is touching! Remember how Charlie Chaplin brought us such life tragedies, of course, in his own way.If we touch the depths of the hearts of ordinary poor people in developing countries, squeezed by both primitive capitalism and family cultures that place money at the heart of their children's future, we will understand their tragedies.Besides, isn't money the whole meaning of life for millions of people in our Western societies?! And are marriages like in the romantic story presented in the movie "Pretty Woman"?The acting is magnificent; the direction is masterful; the movie deserves a rating of at least 8 out of 10! And if the drama moved you, you can also give a higher rating.Through this film, we can understand the philosophy of refugees who come to our world looking for better work and a better way of living, not that our world is perfect!
