Lakposhtha hâm parvaz mikonand aka Turtles can fly (2004) (7/10)

Turtles can fly does not fail to move you. A border town torn by war with the biggest drawback of lack of information. what is the war for, who is really waging it, what is in it for them. All this is shown with children in the foreground living a parallel hell, maturing beyond age while retaining the values that make life so full for many. But then there are those who can not cope with it and all have to coexist. Rather the rational and irrational wish to go together. The niche is well treated, but is unfortunately
not generalisable to wars around the globe. A joint Iran-Iraq venture.
