Imagine your dad abandoned you for annoying dying sister, imagine that little beggar girl from next door just won't put out, and imagine that a mine killed your mom and left you legless. Now, you're in the position of Gol Gotai Karimi's character and you need transportation. Two-Legged Horse explores these problems that every Iranian faces everyday.

The main character solicits a crippled orphan boy to carry him to and from school. He makes his "horse" wear a saddle and fight other boys. That's the end of the movie. That's what I get for following Tammy's suggestion of watching "foreign" movies. Does anyone else find that it hurts your eyes to look at the words? Oh excuse me, SUBTITLES. If I wanted to read I'd go to the library. Films are for entertainment. Period. The end. Two-Legged Horse didn't entertain me so I have to give it a 3 out of 10. I'll give it a second chance when the dub comes out.
