The Kite Runner is divided into three sections. The first section Amir and Hassan are
children in Kabul. The second section covers the years after Amir went to Fremont California
because Afghanistan was being raided by the Russians. Then the last section Amir went back to
Kabul for redemption from past guilt of not taking actions. There is a book and a movie of the
Kite Runner. The characters, plot, and setting are pretty much the same in both but there are
some differences that I will talk about.
The main characters in the first section, are Amir and Hassan. They are children and

In the final section Sorahab, Hassan’s son was a main
character. The setting is mainly in Kabul Afghanistan except when Amir and Baba go to

The book and the movie have some difference that I’m going to speak about. The plot
covers multiple betrayals and offers the possibility of redemption for Amir. In the first section,
there's some tension in the household. Ali and Hassan are Hazara they don't have the same status
as Amir and Baba. Ali is abused by the neighborhood boys. To make things a bit more
uncomfortable, Amir doesn't get nearly enough attention from his father. He is resentful about it.
When Hassan was raped by Assef, and Amir does not stop it, he feels guilty. The rape is not in
the movie. Despite all of the conflict, Amir discovers later that he really cared about Hassan and
then that he was actually his half-brother. Amir betrays Hassan and as a result is sent to America
with his father Baba.
During the second section, of the book, Amir graduated high school and collage while
helping his father. The third and final part of the book, Amir goes back to Kabul to find
children in Kabul. The second section covers the years after Amir went to Fremont California
