Netflix tells me I would like Children of Heaven (1999). "A delightful Iranian movie about a boy who accidentally loses his sister's shoes and must share his own sneakers with her in a sort of relay while each attends school at different times during the day. Finally, the boy enters a much-publicized foot race, hoping to place third. The prize: a new pair of sneakers."

Huh! That's very similar to the plot of the 19th century children's book Hans Brinker, Or, The Silver Skates.

movies, books
