The movie beautifully depicts the relationship between an Afgani Hazara with his Sahib's (owner). The first 40-45 minutes shows the relationship which goes through many twists and turns but the loyalty of the Hazara boy towards his owners son’s whom he respected and loved as a bother more than his owner is shown brilliantly. Also I like the plot or the story of the movie.
Although more than 80% of the movie is in Afghani language but with the help of English subtitles it was easy to understand. The movie spans to a period of about 25 years where the main lead character (Amir agha) grows up from a boy to man.
One of the easily notable performances in the movie is by the two little kids playing the child leads in the movie. I also liked that the director also showed the drastic conditions in Afghanistan after the Talibani take over.
One thing more I would like to tell the readers about, the kite flying scenes in the movie which are shot brilliantly.
Would like to recommend this movie to all readers. Make sure to buy a DVD of such a beautiful movie.
