Eight years old and blind, Mohammed (Moshen Ramezani) returns home from school for the summer after nearly being abandoned by his widower father (Hossein Mahjub). Mohammed savors the country (special sound effects capture his acute sense of hearing), but warm days and wildflowers have no effect on his father's mood. Believing his blind son will ruin his chance to remarry, Mohammed's father needs no less than a miracle to have a change of heart.

Rated PG 1 hour 30 minutes 1999

5 stars. We both really enjoyed this Iranian film. Moshen Ramezani did a amazing job in this film. However the father, played by Hossein Mahjub, acting wasn't quite believable to either of us. The back story of the family and Granny was very touching. The country side with it's wildflowers was stunning also.
