In a divided country on the verge of war, two childhood friends, Amir and Hassan, are about to be torn apart forever. It's a glorious afternoon in Kabul and the skies are bursting with the exhilarating joy of a kite-fighting tournament. But in the aftermath of the day's victory, one boy's act of betrayal will mark their lives forever. Now after 20 years of living in America, Amir returns to his homeland in Afghanistan, now under the Taliban's iron-fisted rule, to help his old friend Hassan, and to face the secrets that still haunt him and take one last daring chance to set things right. Based on the novel of the same name by Khaled Hosseini.
