Parents need to know that this beautiful, Oscar-nominated Iranian film is both a fascinating story of contemporary Iran and a universal coming-of-age tale. Because this is set in Iran, the characters speak Farsi, which makes this problematic for younger viewers, but for everyone else, Children of Heaven is a wonderful film about a family doing their best to pull together in spite of great financial difficulty. Some minor scuffles and accidents are the only minor concern.
