Kite Runner:

Kite Runner movie has been filmed in the 1980 and the story passed in 1988 about wealthy guy from Iran and his son in Afghanistan. Dad always complained about his son because,  when he was in trouble, he has never fought back although their friends were teasing. The son has a friend name is Hasan,  hasan and his father are working in wealthy family’s house.

 Somehow wealthy man and his friend were reading the newspaper, they saw news in the newspaper and written that ‘The brawl has occurred  in the court sovereignty area of Soviet Union’. Wealthy man didn’t like from SSCB and he swore that if I knew guy from Russia, I would chew him up.

  He complained about his son because, and wealthy man said I was always strong always powerful why my son wasn’t as strong as me. Why?

 When All of this conversation were speaking in the living room, Ahmet  was in the stair and listened all of them. He felt so sad himself and got rid of from Hassan.

  And that day Ahmet’s Birthday, so many visitors in their house. Fireworks were sending to air and everybody were watching them, Visitors gave Ahmet their present, good clothes, pants, shirts, watch. Everybody spent very good night at that day.

  Next day after the birthday Ahmet started to think about how can I managed to get them out from our house. Suddenly one opinion occurred his mind. He took his watch and put it above the Hassan’s bed and after this process he went to his father and said that I can’t find out my watch anywhere. His father said that please look for it, maybe you left it in somewhere. Ahmet turned around house and came to his father and said that ‘I haven’t been able to find it out’. Dad took this event seriously, after a couple of times he found it in the Hassan’s room. He felt so disappointed and ordered his another assistants to send for Hassan’s family. Hassan and father came up there and waited in front of their owners.

  Rich people asked ‘Had you stolen this watch?’

  At first Hassan looked to Ahmet and said ‘Yes’

  Owner hadn’t asked any more questions and only said that I forgive you.

  They answered that we decided to go and resigned from job.

   Owner said again loudly ‘I said Forgive you’

  They answered that you weren’t my owner we were leaving’

Hello:
I work for an online editing and proofreading service. Please see my profile for more info. I won't revise your entire essay here but I will show you the changes I would make in the first paragraph.

The film The Kite Runner takes place from 1980 to 1988. The main characters are a wealthy man from Iran and his son. They live in Afghanistan. The father complains about his son because when the son is in trouble, he does not fight back. The son has a friend named Hasan. Hasan and his father work in the wealthy family’s house.

The Kite Runner is a title of a full-length movie, so it should also be italicized. And the movie does include "The" as a quick search on Google attests. The movie was just filmed recently: it's the plot that takes place in the eighties. Try to keep essays like this one in the present tense unless you are describing an event that precedes what happens in the book. Some of that first paragraph was unclear, so please alter my edit if I have changed your meaning in any way. Good luck!
