A great early film from Iran. This one is like The Little Rascals on steroids. About a dozen children try to help this old lady talk on the phone with her son that she has not heard from for a long time. The problem is the door to the house is locked and no key. The children are very inventive in ways to gain entry. What makes this film unique is what they put this poor lady through to accomplish their goal. Amazing they did some of this filming without regards to safety protocols we have here in the states. The Iranian directors for this film and past 40 years really know how to use amateurs and children in the cinema.
