The Kite Runner's background

Everyone has a conscience, but what can awaken it? Violence, guilt, blood?

Hassan is the son of Ali, the Amir's housekeeper. He really likes his little master Amir, following him, protecting him, flying kites with him, listening to all kinds of stories he wrote and made up ... In Hassan's heart, he is Amir's good friend and is willing to do anything for him.

In Afghanistan, there is an ancient kite competition. Every year, many teenagers get together, fly kites and cut each other's kites with their own kites. Whoever cuts more will win. Amir's father cut 14 kites when he was young, and no one has broken his record so far. Amir and Hassan are also crazy about flying kites, and Hassan is willing to be the one who chased the kite off. For Amir, he said, "I will do it a thousand times." What a pure and selfless love!

Shortly after the film started, Hassan was chasing a kite. He ran into a street without looking up at the sky. Amir thought it impossible for him to catch the kite. Hassan said, "The kite will fall here, I know! If I am wrong, I would rather eat loess. " Amir asked, "If I let you eat dirt, would you eat it?" Hassan answered affirmatively: "Yes". The face of a ten-year-old child is full of firmness and persistence. Everything he gave his friends was humble, but he didn't know that Amir didn't really regard him as a friend. Of course, Hassan is right. He can catch a kite without looking at it!

In the annual kite competition, two children cut the last blue kite with their exquisite skills, and they won! Hassan ran after the trophy kite for his friend and never looked back. Amir waited for a long time, didn't see him come back, and ran to Hassan. In the corner of an alley, Hassan was blocked by several children-those were the little ruffians who bullied Amir. In order to protect his friends, Hassan aimed a slingshot at the leader's head and they were forced to retreat. Now, they come back for revenge and want to take the meaningful kite. In the face of threats, Hassan did not hesitate to choose to protect kites. So, under Amir's peep, the children beat up and molested Hassan. Amir just looked at it, looked at it ... we also looked at it off-film. A friend is willing to die for another friend, but another friend refuses to stand up for him! When Xia Zhina limped out with a blue kite, there was blood under his feet, but Amir pretended not to know anything. Perhaps, in his young mind, he still doesn't know what guilt, courage and gratitude are!

Shortly after this incident, Amir began to neglect Hassan. Perhaps, his father was a very strong man, so Amir was afraid, so he tried his best to get his father to fire Hassan and his son. He put his watch under Hassan's pillow and put it in. Although his father did not pursue it, Ali, who had strong self-esteem, left with Hassan.

We don't know why this little boy is so evil at heart. Perhaps because he knew his evil and was afraid of exposure, he gave up his conscience and morality, and was desperate to cover up the truth and stay away from his guilt.

There are a few lines in the TV series: "Bad people can't read, because they are literate, and they can do bad things worse than anyone else." Are those hooligans who harass Hassan bad people? They are bright and bad, but Amir, a child with dark and insidious psychology, is even more terrible!

Later, the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, and Amir's father fled to the United States. Amir grew up, went to college and found a wife. Does he have a shadow of Afghanistan in his heart? Do you still think of your former friend Hassan?

Amir's novel has been published, and he is waiting for his new book. Then his father's good friend called him to go to Pakistan. So, for this old man who encouraged him to write since he was a child, he resolutely set foot on that land, a neighbor of Afghanistan.

Originally Amir thought he was just looking at the old man, his father's good friend, his good friend. The old man who did housework for them after they left Afghanistan did not expect that the old man told him an amazing fact: Hassan was his own brother. In order to maintain his reputation, he put the housekeeper in charge of taking care of the children. After they left Afghanistan, Hassan helped them as housekeepers, but under the tyrannical rule of the Taliban government, Hassan and his wife gave their lives to defend Amir's home. Their children were also sent to orphanages. The old man told him to save the child because he was the child's own uncle.

Amir is gone. Perhaps life and relatives taught him courage and commitment. He went through all kinds of hardships and finally rescued his nephew Hassan Jr. When they returned to America, Amir regarded Hassan as his own.

At the end of the film, Amir personally taught Xiaohashan to fly a kite on a shady green land. Amir ran after them when they cut other people's kites. He said to Hassan, "I am willing to do it a thousand times for you."

Hassan in those days, Amir now, they have the same will, a The Kite Runner, a man willing to sacrifice for others.
