I was truly amazed with this film, I really enjoy those movie that are able to produce certain emotions in me. The story is great and also the characters in it are very empowering. The way it tells the story is awesome, because they had the ability to step out, they were original and creative, using so much colors and different animation. In motion pictures what matters is not if it is an entertaining story full of action or drama, but how the plot is told regarding of its theme. The two combination of the animation present in this film and all the magical and non-magical parts in it, is extraordinary, at least for me. They not only try to show a little of reality of this culture but also a little of fantasy and art present everywhere, regardless of its culture. Breadwinner is really worth your time. 8.8

... View MoreThis animated film takes us through the daily life of a young girl named Parvana who lives modestly with her family in Afghanistan during the war. They live in poverty in a small one-roomed enclosure in a dystopian society of the recent past, under constant fear of persecution and abuse. After her father is arrested, Parvana must disguise herself as a boy to provide for her family: mother, sister, and baby brother, who are unable to go out alone to buy food without being accompanied by a man. Throughout, there is an ongoing oral story going on, told by Parvana in parallel, which accompanies in an abstract way the trials she and her family face as the climax approaches. The artwork is beautiful and the scenes are heartfelt and considerate of the character's emotions, so we really form a connection with each of them. There are scenes that are hard to watch, violent, heart wrenching, and devastating, but this is a movie meant to be shared and experienced by as many as possible.
