Very little happiness or "redemption" was evident to my untrained eye, but the view of Iran is enlightening. Featuring accessible characters in a land of rolling hills and forests, it's nothing like the usual perception of Iran as endless deserts and religious fanatics.
The story is "ashamed father betrays handicapped son," but don't expect any satisfying resolution. The lead child actor gives an excellent, heart-rending performance. With a few minor exceptions, all characters are remarkably well-portrayed; they are natural and believable.
Our misleading digital cable synopsis was "Father sends away his sightless son as apprentice to a blind carpenter," but it's hard to latch onto any other plot point. Just watch and enjoy.
Best scene: Near the beginning of the film, Mohammad rescues a fallen baby bird.
