From the director of the memorable CHILDREN OF HEAVEN, this will have you laughing, crying and rooting for the street kids at its heart. The captivating Ali and his gang of young hustlers get their big break when recruited to find a hidden treasure. But first they have to go back to the school where the treasure is buried. Energetic and refreshing, with its heart firmly in the right place, SUN CHILDREN is full of scene-stealing performances from a nonprofessional cast.


“A heart-rending story with unexpected depth of emotion… it has guts and heart and a grubby, street-smart charisma.” Guardian


“Majid Majidi has made some of the most visually stunning and emotionally stirring films in world cinema about the plight of under-privileged, exploited and abused young people, and Sun Children (Khorshid) is one of his very best.” Hollywood Reporter

Bydd y ffilm hon, gan gyfarwyddwr CHILDREN OF HEAVEN, yn peri i chi chwerthin, crio a chefnogi plant y stryd sy’n ganolog iddi. Mae'r Ali cyfareddol a'i griw o dwyllwyr ifanc yn cael eu cyfle mawr pan maen nhw’n cael eu recriwtio i ddod o hyd i drysor cudd. Ond yn gyntaf mae'n rhaid iddyn nhw fynd yn ôl i'r ysgol lle mae'r trysor wedi'i gladdu. Yn egnïol ac yn adfywiol, gyda'i chalon yn y lle iawn heb os, mae SUN CHILDREN yn llawn perfformiadau penigamp gan gast nad ydynt yn broffesiynol.
