Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Baran is a 2001 Iranian film directed by Majid Majidi. The movie is set at the Turn of the Millennium, when during the Taliban years a large number of Afghan refugees live on the outskirts of Tehran, most of them as unregistered workers.The protagonist is Lateef, a 17-years-old lazy tea boy for a building construction site where most of the workers are unregistered Afghans. One day one of them, Najaf, falls from the building and breaks his leg, which makes him unable to work. The next day, Soltan, another Afghan worker, brings in Najaf's son Rahmat, who is around 14 years old, to replace his father. Memar, the site foreman, soon realizes that Rahmat is too weak to work in a construction site, and switches jobs between Rahmat and Lateef, who is now old enough to work as a mason. Lateef picks in on Rahmat mistreating him at every occasion. One day, by looking through the door of the storage room where Rahmat prepares the dishes, he is totally shocked to discover that Rahmat is a girl, Baran. Lateef sees Rahmat/Baran combing her long hair (which she usually keeps well-hidden under an hat), becomes instantly smitten with her and acts as her secret champion, in an increasingly desperate quest to keep her out of trouble.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The film was fairly well-received in Iran and outside, showing also the harsh conditions endured by Afghan refugees, who despite getting in and out Iran from the Soviet Invasion of Afghanistan are never granted much rights in Iran or elsewhere. | |

Bilingual Bonus | |
| Baran / int_294ed981 | comment |
Bilingual Bonus: Since the Afghans also speak Farsi, the ethnic Azeris speak their Azeri dialect leading the Afghans to be frustrated with them. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Baran / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Lateef manages to see Baran again, who is implied to love him back, and gives some money to help her family. But to do so, he sold his ID card, the last valuable thing he owned, and Baran leaves for Afghanistan, meaning that they'll never see each other again. | |
