"Stunningly beautiful.A gem."-Stephen Holden, THE NEW YORK TIMES

Academy Award-nominee Majid Majidi (Children Of Heaven, Best Foreign Language Film, 1998) explores the world of a gifted blind boy at the mercy of his father's crippling sense of shame in The Color Of Paradise.

Mohammad joyfully returns to his tiny village on summer vacation from the Institute for the Blind, unaware of his widowed father's intentions to disown him in order to win the hand -- and dowry -- of a local woman.With the wedding swiftly approaching, Mohammad's future hangs precariously in the balance as his father struggles against his destiny, unable to see the wonder of life and love that's so clear to his son.
