Golden Globe Nominee: Best Foreign Film. Oscar Nominee: Best Musical Score. Based on the international best seller by Khaled Hosseini and directed by Marc Forster (Finding Neverland), this deeply moving film set in Afghanistan and San Francisco follows childhood best friends Hassan (Ahmad Khan Mahmoodzada) and Amir (Zekiria Ebrahimi). "'The Kite Runner' is a compelling and uplifting tale that exposes the viewer to an unfamiliar, fascinating culture and a family dynamic that is recognizable and nuanced."- Claudia Puig, USA Today. "A film of exhilarating, redemptive humanity, conveying an enduring sense of hope." Ann Hornaday, Washington Post (depicts a child rape though with admirable cinematic restraint) (PG-13 122 min, English subtitles when Dari is spoken)
