4K restoration of Amir Naderi’s 1987 THE RUNNER
Amiro, an illiterate 11-year-old orphan living alone in an abandoned tanker in the Iranian port city of Abadan, survives by shining shoes, selling water, and diving for deposit bottles, while being bullied by both adults and competing older kids. But he finds solace by dreaming about departing cargo ships and airplanes and by running…seemingly to nowhere.
Written and Directed by Amir Naderi
Starring Madjid Niroumand, Moussa Torkizadeh, Abbas Nazeri
