The Apple (1998)
6/10
A funny and poignant Iranian drama
7 October 2021
Two 12 years old twin girls locked in the house by their unemployed father face the outside world for the first time when they are released by a social worker to see the real world. Innocence and gratitude are what pervades in this sweet little Iranian drama based on a true story with the children acting themselves. The sweetness is just overwhelmed with the innocence of the children, which just touches. Definitely not as compelling to "Children of Heaven," the film feels a bit slow but still has its moments to cherish. Overall, it's not a landmark movie but still provides the pleasure of a decent cinematic experience.
