Synopsis:
Life for a boy in an Iranian Gulf port is not very rewarding except when he is running with his pals, until he decides to learn to read and write.
Review:
Vivid depiction of life in a society as alien to ours as it was possible to get, familiarising us with it through the eyes of a child with some striking elemental images and an overriding optimism identified with flying.
