Dubai Rolls Out Red Carpet For ‘The Kite Runner’ Cast, Filmmakers
“The Kite Runner,” which made a noticeable impact on this year’s Chicago International Film Festival, just attended a closing-night, red-carpet gala at the fourth-annual Dubai International Film Festival.
The photos above, which were sent to me from the Chicago publicist for the film, also came with this caption:
