Synopsis
Bekas (2012) is a Kurdish drama from director Karzan Kader that you can watch online on iFILM. Two orphaned brothers shine shoes on the street and sleep wherever they can.
Zana and Dana catch Superman through a hole in the wall of the local cinema — they can't afford a ticket. That glimpse is enough to set them dreaming: if a man can do anything, you go find him, in America. So the boys set off on foot, over the mountains, with a stubborn donkey instead of a car and pure faith instead of a map. Along the way the dream keeps running into hard grown-up reality.
Kader drew the story partly from his own childhood in Iraqi Kurdistan, and it warms more than it wounds. A bright, sad, funny film about brotherhood and hope, made for anyone who loves road movies built around real kids. Stream Bekas online on iFILM.
