  • SUN CHILDREN by Majid Majidi
    SUN CHILDREN By Majid Majidi PRESS REACTIONS World Premiere – Venice Film Festival 2020 - IN COMPETITION - - QUOTES - “A heart-rending story with unexpected depth of emotion… it has guts and heart and a grubby, street-smart charisma. It’s one of the finest films playing in this year’s Venice competition…” “Energetic and heartfelt, tipping towards tragedy, Sun Children crawls through the mud and emerges all the stronger. The quest is a red herring; the real treasure is the film.” - THE GUARDIAN ⭑⭑⭑⭑ “Quite the thrill ride, mixing a Dickensian, social-realist account of children in poverty in Tehran with a kinetic, far-fetched heist movie… a crowdpleaser…a thrilling portrait of youth… (with) scene- stealing Shamila Shirzad turning in the best performance of the film.” - INDIEWIRE “Iranian director Majid Majidi has made some of the most visually stunning and emotionally stirring films in world cinema about the plight of under-privileged, exploited and abused young people, and Sun Children is one of his very best.” - THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER “I was reminded of “The Florida Project”, one of the best films about children of the 21st century… If one intention of “Sun Children” is to remind that all kids are created equal, deserving of education and encouragement, Majidi’s young ensemble makes the case loud and clear…The kids compel and entertain.” - VARIETY “Refreshing… A film that has its heart firmly in the right place”. - SCREEN INTERNATIONAL Sun Children review – Iranian street kids strike gold Majid Majidi’s cast of young toughs digging for treasure under a school deliver a heart-rending story with unexpected depth of emotion.

  • Sun Children
    presents SUN CHILDREN A FILM BY MAJID MAJIDI Starring Rouhollah Zamani and Ali Nasirian PRESS NOTES OFFICIAL SELECTION Venice International Film Festival Country of Origin: Iran Format: DCP/1.85/Color Sound: 5.1 Surround Running Time: 99 minutes Genre: Drama Not Rated In Farsi with English Subtitles National Press Contact: ​ Carly Hildebrant Strand Releasing Phone: 310.836.7500 [email protected] SYNOPSIS SUN CHILDREN is the story of 12-year-old ALI and his three friends. Together they work hard to survive and support their families, doing small jobs in a garage and committing petty crimes to make fast money. In a turn of events that seems miraculous, Ali is entrusted to find a hidden treasure underground. He recruits his gang, but first, to gain access to the tunnel, the children must enroll at the Sun School, a charitable institution that tries to educate street kids and child laborers, close to where the treasure is located. DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT SUN CHILDREN is the story of children who must work to support their families. To this date, there are 152 million children in this situation. International organizations are waging a desperate fight to support these young people who are subjected to abuse and deprived of their human right to education. The message of SUN CHILDREN is that we are all responsible to these children, many of whom are extremely talented and all of whom are precious. It is simply not tolerable that their social and economic status consign them to a future of limited opportunities and poor prospects. SUN CHILDREN demonstrates the abilities and humanity of these children.
