Where is the Friend’s Home (1987) – A. Kiarostami
Kiarostami's first great success tells the simple tale of a boy who
mistakenly takes home a classmate's notebook and wants to return it so his
friend won't get into trouble. However, this is more difficult than it seems.
Beautifully depicted, compelling and suspenseful, though minimalist.
Kiarostami's trademark wit is already in place (as we too struggle to make out
whether that really is the friend over there behind the horse!).
