    It is really life of many people

    This is one of that movie that talks about life of many people in the Middle East. In the movie shows that how girls is unhappy and introvert because of society and how father have strong effect on the son by both paths good or bad. I want talk about both girl (Mali) and boy (siamak) in the movie.

    Mali is tall and black hair, she has white skin her eyes is so impressive. She is magnificent. With all this but she is little bit stupid she convince very fast, she lives like goalbird because of her family don't let her for anything so when she see siamak she think she have bitter life with him she will be more free she has bitter life than life with her family. So after a few time with siamak hearing some nice things and giving him some empty hope she agree to marry him and she against her family and insist of this marriage while her father and brother against it. They let her marry but not because she want it because they afraid of shame in their neighborhood but they say to her if you leave this house for him you have to forget you have family. Then the main story start between Mali and siamak.

    However siamak is too bad and sometimes he act worse than animals while sometimes he wants to be good but he can not continue because of his nature is rough and he can not avoid it. This is all fault of his father because in siamak chilhood he was so bad with siamak mother's and with him also, so this is make siamak have very rough personality.

    In conclude Mali is beautiful girl she loves siamak and marry him but he have very rough personality because of his childhood.

    Disturbingly True Representation of Reality

    Parental restrictions coupled with staunch religious beliefs lead to many young girls forced to marry just for a sense of "restricted freedom". This film highlights the injustices that take place in a patriarchal family whose son resorts to beating his new bride at the risk of allowing her any personal freedoms. Milad Keymaram is brilliant as Siavash.
