9/10
A beautiful film filled with tragedy
22 March 2023
The is a gorgeously realised film drawn in simple, yet captivating style. A story about war, love, the human condition, art, forgiveness, sacrifice set in the dictatorial regime of the Taliban, so not for those who want just to escape the world for 90 mixtures.

This is the type of animation which pierces the heart so much more than anything that Hollywood Studios can produce. And while at times the story is somewhat predictable never once did I not want to see it unfold, its style of drawing was so beautiful.

The ending was sad and realistic and not exactly what I was expecting, which was pleasing if such a word can be used for this film.

Rent this film from Apple TV if you can't find it on any of your streaming services, it is well worth the watch.
