The story here is about Amin, a man from Afghanistan who needs to outrun his country because of the war.
The story presented here is really impactful and it is a very relevant one. What I really liked here is the documentary style of storytelling mixed with the animated and cartoon like visuals. At certain points this also gets interrupted by real life footage which makes these scenes even more impactful since the cartoon like visuals may suggest that this is a made-up story but by presenting it with real-life footage at certain points you see that these types of situations are real.
And as Amin is on the run he is also struggling with how to express his sexuality. This gives the story some more depth since it is not only about war and being on the run but also how a child growing up in this kind of situation is forced to deal with other aspects of life.
Overall, I found this film to be quite impactful and told in a very intriguing and fresh way. It definitely makes you think about war and the world and what type of impact it has on people and especially children.
