    Good effort, not so good outcome!

    I wanted so much that this animation to be good and the only good thing about this animation is the movie poster, when you see the poster it put so much high expectations which is not meet during the mivie, graphic and animation is decent, voice over is soulless and very stiff and doesn't conveying any emotions, but the worst thing is the story, the story line doesn't make any sence and my 6 and 9 years old kids noticed that too, for example a boy that never spoke with any human suddenly speak fluently, and director wanted to tie the story to an plane crash that happened 30 years ago that doesn't make any sense.

    good animation film

    Another animated film with an interesting story that will make you stay interested, throughout the film. Both kids and adult will like this one. Honest, Kind and simply Intelligent! Nothing irrelevant, nothing boring or whatever what makes people upset about any movie. Great plot and characters, lots of valuable significations.

    Not a child themed film

    Do your research on this. Might be rated General but clearly the review panel didn't watch past the first 10 minutes. Not suitable for children under at least 8. Very dark themed scenes. Far too much ommonousmusoc and dark characters.

    Script elements such as Stupid Child Sre frequent. There's a plane crash, death of a mother and quite dark semi violent screenplay.

    It's clearly made and set in an Arabic context but very little of the culture beyond toughness and darkness is evident. Really it's an animation but it's one to miss for a small child. There's very little by way of light or uplifting script. Largely dark if reasonably animated.

    Special animation, full of love and light

    For years, I have not seen such an attractive animation with a smooth narrative centered on love and life from a different and creative perspective. A new and up-to-date story of preserving values, humanity, and altruism, which cleverly points out the fine details of the issues of the day. And also showing local customs and creating a happy and cheerful atmosphere and moments full of joy, laughter and pleasure along with sad and scary moments. And the use of native music from the south of Iran, which gives a much more beautiful mood to the images. And in the end, all of us received this beautiful life as a gift from our mother by the will of God, and you will see this issue and its value clearly in this movie. All in all you just have to see it for yourself to understand how amazing the story is 👌
