Iqbal

1998 · 98 min Drama TV Movie
5.9 / 10 · TMDB

Iqbal is about an Asian boy who gets sold by his father to a small carpentry production company in which child labour is supported. His "master" is a cruel man, imposing a ridiculous behaviour catalogue with strict charges. The children, about 5-10 years of age, have to work all day and they´re not allowed to go to toilet while at work, let alone visit their parents. Iqbal soon realizes that this is a massive injustice, especially when a member of the (unindentified) country´s Communist and Anti-child labour party takes photographs of the children.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Iqbal has mixed reviews with a rating of 5.9/10. Good for a relaxed evening without high expectations.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1998. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
