![]() ![]() ![]() Ishaan Awasthi is an 8 year old boy struggling in his second time as a 3rd grade student. I have no complaints about ANYTHING in the film.nothing. Brilliant writing, brilliant acting and a very brave and lovely production overall make this an amazing and perfect film. ![]() And then.he has a new art teacher who has worked with disabled kids before.and he recognizes the kid's problems.as well as the kid's potential! Considering it's a nearly three hour film, there of course is much more to it.and the film is a joy to watch. He's sullen, and most importantly, severely depressed and almost non-communicative. Later, when he's been punished for this by sending him off to a boarding school, his spirit is crushed. But no one bothers looking at these behaviors as signs of a deeper problem.the boy is illiterate and also cannot do math because he has very severe Dyslexia. Nearly everyone around him sees him as a trouble maker and kid with a horrible attitude. Eight year-old Ishaan is a problem child. The story is a sad but ultimately happy one. It truly is a wonderful film and is better than nearly anything coming out of Hollywood these days. But, I must say that "Tarre Zameen Par" ("Like Stars on Earth") is the best Indian film I've seen.even slightly better than "Kahaahi" and "Three Idiots" (another Aamir Khan film). However, considering the country makes more films than any other (about 800 a year), I really have only seen a small number of their films. I love Indian films and have seen more than most Americans. ![]()
