Where Is The Friend’s Home? by Abbas Kiarostami (1987)is a simple film about an eight years old boy named Nematzadeh who is on a journey to return a notebook to his classmate, or else his classmate would be expelled if his homework is not written in the notebook one more time. Along the way, Nematzadeh faces obstruction from adults who think that he should be doing other things instead, subliminally paralleling the contrasting differences of “importance” value of children and adults, what is significant to a child might be barely attention worthy to an adult.
