CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Amir (Zekeria Ebrahimi) has a grand birthday party.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Finding Neverland director Marc Forster adapts author Khaled Hosseini's critically acclaimed novel about two childhood best friends forever torn apart as their country is ravaged by endless war and bitter strife. As children, Amir (Khalid Abdalla) and Hassan were inseparable; their long days under azure Kabul skies often spent getting into innocent mischief or preparing for the highly anticipated kite-fighting tournament. When the day of the tournament arrives, however, a glorious victory is quickly offset by a timorous act of betrayal that ultimately serves as the catalyst for catastrophe. Not long after that fateful day, Amir moves away to America, leaving his old friend behind just as the ominous specter of war turns tragically tangible. Two decades later, Amir returns to Afghanistan to find his beloved homeland has now fallen under the iron-fisted rule of the Taliban. Still, all hope for redemption hasn't been lost just yet, because now that Amir stands face to face with the irrepressible secrets that he struggled so vigilantly to bury, he will receive one last chance to make peace with the past, and lay the groundwork for a brighter future.

[@juliadeoliveirasp]

I like the movie a lot. They had to cut a good part of the things that happen in the book for reasons of safety for the cast (people, think about it, it was filmed in Afghanistan....) The boy who played Hassan even had to flee the country due to death threats due to the nude scene. I think adding more details from the original to the movie would make it unbearable to watch. What it has is enough to know that the boys' lives have been a disgrace.
