The Song of Sparrows

The Song of Sparrows (Âvâz-e gonjeshk-hâ) (Persian: آواز گنجشک‌ها) is a 2008 Iranian drama film directed, produced and co-written by Majid Majidi.

He leads a simple and contented life in his small house with his wife Narges, and three children, whom he loves and tries to make happy.

When he reaches home he finds that his son Hussein and neighborhood children are searching for the hearing aid in their underground water cistern, which, because of blockages holds little but sludgy mud now.

He finds himself mistaken for a motorcycle taxi driver and thus begins his new profession: ferrying people and goods through heavy traffic.

However, the people and goods he is dealing with every day start to change Karim's generous and honest nature, much to the distress of his wife and daughters.
