Children of Heaven



The Children of Heaven is a sweet film about a boy, his sister and shoes. The story tell us a boy who lives in a poor family who lost a pair of shoes owned by his sister after he went to shop to repair the shoes. Ali is a 10 year old living in a small town in Iran. His family is poor and behind in rent payments; his mother ill. Ali sincerely tries to help out, but he ends up losing his little sister Zahra's shoes during an errand to have them repaired.
"How can I go to school without shoes?" Zahra pleads.
The story shows us a courage and good bonding among two siblings which make them cooperate when they have a big problem. Ali, the eldest brother is trying very hard to get back his sister shoes after he lost it. Although he cannot find the same shoes yet he still tries many ways to get other shoes for his sister because her sister did not have any shoes to go to school. While the effort to get other shoes is still in progress, they share the same shoes owned by Ali to go to their school which are in different places and time among them.
