A Beautiful Film, 9 July 2005
8/10
Author: Elaheh Omidi Fard from Tehran

I watched this movie when I was a kid and it has left a very nice feeling inside me whenever I remember it.

It is a very emotionally complicated movie with wonderful actors.

I also very much like the acting of the boy and the gardener.

The actor who plays the father is also very natural and delivers a believable and wonderful acting.

The other remarkable point is the screenplay and the story which is very deep. sometimes it makes you feel satisfied and entertained sometimes it makes you cry.

In all, It's a movie that you have to watch if you are a film lover.

8 out of 10 is my vote.
