But at the beginning of winter gave way to the head, and he forbade admitting children to the mother cell. Children in their wanderings fall into various scrapes. They are trying to find ways to meet again with his mother, all their attempts to childishly naive.

Review: Let me start out by saying this is not a “feel good” Saturday night movie night film.  Sag-haye velgard is sad, depressing, and enraging, and beautiful.  I walked away from this with very mixed emotions; taken by the beauty of the cinematography but depressed from the situation of the film’s main characters and absolutely pissed off at a culture that would make this scenario possible at the same time.  With that said, I do really like the movie Stray Dogs; but it will hit you like a cheap shot in the balls…
