Homework
Tribute Abbas Kiarostami
Disturbed by the education his own children were getting, Kiarostami took his cameras inside an elementary school and talked to the children about their experiences. The result is one of the most extraordinary and touching films about education ever made, a scathing snapshot of a system in which every child knows the meaning of “punishment” but few have heard of “encouragement.” Shown with two delightful Kiarostami shorts for kids, Two Solutions for One Problem and So Can I.
