Plot Introduction: Afghanistan, a desolate and barren West Asian country, has been suffering from poverty and backwardness for many years. But the people living here also enjoy the fun brought to them by family, friendship, and growth. The rich boy Amir and his servant Hassan are a pair of close friends. Whether it's the desolate Gobi desert, the abrupt hills, the unforgettable dead woods, the bustling markets...everywhere is a good place for them to hang out, play and play.

Today, Kabul’s annual kite flying festival is here again. Amir and Hassan each enthusiastically participated with their own satisfactory works. What the two innocent children never expected was that this kite flying competition, which could have once again added joy to their happy childhood, would turn out to be a nightmare that would change the lives of these two young hearts. The lucky Amir won the kite competition with the help of his servant Hassan in every possible way. However, Hassan was raped by the villain. The timid Amir was frightened but did not dare to help. The innocent friendship between the two good friends was broken by the sudden "Soviet-Afghan War" under such embarrassing and even sad circumstances.

In order to escape the war, Amir's father immigrated to the United States with his family. In the United States, where conditions are excellent, the motivated Amir gradually became an outstanding student in school, and eventually graduated with excellent grades, becoming the pride of his father. But deep in Amir's heart, the guilt for his childhood friend Hassan cannot be erased by any good thing. Suddenly one day, a phone call from his father's friend finally gave Amir the opportunity and courage to return to his hometown to atone for his sins from his friends. It turns out that the impoverished Hassan family has been suffering in the war-torn mountains of Afghanistan for many years. In order to protect Amir's family's property in Kabul, the loyal Hassan family was tortured by the brutal Taliban terrorist organization. The surviving sons of Hassan fell into the hands of Taliban terrorists. In order to hide his atonement for twenty years and for the true friendship of his youth, Amir decided to return to the desolate West Asian Gobi and tried every means to rescue Hassan's son from the tiger's mouth...

Brief review of the film: Afghanistan must have been equated with the "Taliban" and "terrorism" in people's eyes. Obviously, the publication of "The Kite Runner" has, to a certain extent, changed the world's one-sided impression of war-torn, desolate, barren, backward and barbaric Afghanistan. The original author, Khaled Hosseini, an Afghan-American, was born in Kabul in 1965. He later immigrated to the United States with his father due to the war. Hosseini graduated from the Department of Medicine at the University of California, San Diego and now lives in California. As his first novel, "The Kite Runner" was well received for its vivid characterization and shocking and touching storyline. It won several Newcomer Awards, and the book has jumped to the bestseller lists in the United States. Hosseini, who has a deep affection for his hometown, seems to have used his own personal experience to vividly contrast and describe the picturesque Afghanistan before the war and the devastated motherland after the war. In the novel, the incident of Amir and his son emigrating due to the war is used to bring out a vivid picture of immigrant life.

This complex story intertwined with friendship, family affection, homesickness, betrayal and redemption has moved countless people. The beautiful "kite" that is the finishing touch in the film has become a symbol that touches people's attention and heartstrings and represents the friendship and even brotherhood between Amir and Hassan.

At the end of the film, when Amir takes Hassan's son to the green lawns of the United States and chases the beautiful kite in the breeze for him, everything is self-evident...
