THE KITE RUNNER TRAILER

Here is the trailer of the film, The Kite Runner. I chose this video because it clearly shows the important plots of the film. It is an explanatory paragraph. 

The video starts withthe scene of the soldiers because at that time, Taliban has the control of the city, Kabul. That's why the Taliban soldiers stop the cars and check the people who come to city or leave the city. After that, the coming scenes show the intimacy between Amir and Hassan. Later, the scene of the traditional kite fighting scenes come. There are only two kites are left and the contestant who cuts the other kite will win the racing. Most of the citizens including Amir's father, Baba are watching the competition. And with the help of Hassan, Amir is able to cut the other kite and wins the competition. Then, the scene of the intimacy of Amir and Hassan is shown again. In December 1979, Soviet Russians invade Afghanistan. Because of the invasion, Baba and Amir have to leave the city. Later, the past scene of the first encounter of Hassan and Assef appears. And then, because of what Amir sees about Hassan, Amir causes Hassan and his father to leave the home. Several years later, Amir becomes an adult and figths with adult Assef in order to save the orphan boy of Hassan. Finally, the unfortunate scene of Hassan is shown. He is beaten and raped by Assef and his friends. 

I love this film because it clearly shows the intimacy and its disappearing. Also, the film is very good at telling the love, sacrifice and lies between fathers and sons. I think it is very affecting film. In my opinion, everyone should watch it. :)
