Beyro is a biopic of professional Iranian soccer player Alireza Beyranvand Hossein Beyranvand who runs away from his nomadic family in Lorestan to pursue his dreams in the country's capital; he suffers several trials along the way and learns what it means to be a true sportsman.
Great quality, really an enjoyable film. The story is the centerpiece, the shining diamond, of this film, as it should be. It's a typical hero's journey told in an untypical manner, with depth and candor. I was gripped from the word go. The shots are stable and I especially love how the camera team captured the many nights of struggle and strife Beyro had to go through. The editing is a bit lackluster in the initial moments of the film, as there are some points where dialogue and shots don't sync up; at one point, Beyro's coach is speaking but his mouth isn't moving. Overall, the quality of the camera work is definitely suitable for exhibition, and nicely enhances the story. The film was shot in Iran, and all the locations are perfectly adequate for the story. There is not much music, but the minimal score does enrich the development of the story and accent the emotions of the film. The dialogue is in Persian with English subtitles. The skilled Hossein Beyranvand plays Alireza Beiranvand and his capacity to emote and express on screen augments the preexisting depth of Beyro's character. His various mentors are played by Mahdi Zaminpardaz, Siavash Cheraghi Pour and Majid Potki, who each excel in encapsulating what it means to be a good coach, while also showcasing human flaws, like one of the coaches' lack of trust in the sixteen-year-old Alireza. Morteza Ali Abbas Mirzaei's direction and production tie the film together, as each scene is carefully tailored to fit with the prior and following one, and each actor freely performs on screen, a trait characteristic of films with good directors. I love Beyro evolves over the course of the film. I was inspired to learn more about the real-life player after watching the film.
The message of this film is to persevere until you reach your dreams. It shows kids doing risky things that kids might imitate such as Beyro running away from home
I give Beyro 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, plus adults. By Eshaan M., KIDS FIRST!
