It&#8217;s educational in a way that it shows how it can be in some countries where the people are not free to do what they want.<\/p>\n<p>4. It&#8217;s a warn movie that follows a boy and you feel connected to him somehow.<\/p>\n<p>5.

It takes away the realism because the actors are speaking English in Iran.<\/p>\n<p>2. It can be uncomfortable and frightening to see some parts.<\/p>\n<p>3. Not a lot of action, so it can be hard if you&#8217;re easily bored.<\/p>\n<p>4. This movie doesn&#8217;t speak to everyone, if you&#8217;re not at all into dance it can be a little over the top.<\/p>\n<p>5. I can&#8217;t find another reason, you should definitely give it a try!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reviewed by Karin Eriksson.
