KHANE-YE DOUST KODJAST? (WHERE IS THE FRIEND'S HOME) New Master Edition

[Machine Translation] Iranian master Abbas Kiarostami's masterpiece is brought to Blu-ray for the first time using the 2K new master. A boy desperately runs to find his friend's house. A masterpiece that realistically depicts the naivete and anxiety of a child! --A small village in northern Iran. In a small village in northern Iran, a boy named Ahmad mistakenly takes home a notebook belonging to his classmate Mohammad Reza. Remembering his teacher's words, "If you forget your notebook, you will be expelled from school," Ahmad runs to his friend's house far away to deliver the notebook. The story is simple, but the tranquil scenery provides a thrilling backdrop for the anxious expression on Ahmad's face as he repeatedly gets lost and is tossed about by the adults. This film symbolizes Kiarostami's style of cinematography, in which he does not use professional actors but uses actual houses and schools, as well as village residents and children, and is a masterpiece that will shine in the history of cinema, making Kiarostami's name known throughout the world. The scenery of "Zigzag Road," through which Ahmad repeatedly runs, has been carried over to his later works.
