Great epic drama of Mustafa Kemal Atatürka, who is still regarded to this day as one of the most important political leaders of the 20th century - who was not only a great revolutionary statesman, but also the founding father of the Republic of Turkey. This film of Kemal Atatürka also presents beautifully the profound political vision of a statesman, who sees the inevitability of change that Turkey had to undergo during the early twentieth century, making Kemal Atatürka the revolutionary statesman Turkey needed during that time, so that Turkey could be modernized and improved - and thereby making the country part of the International Community. The film also gives a very profound and moving portrayal of Kemal Atatürk's friends and family - in particular his mother and his beloved friends, Fikriye Hanim and Salih Bozok. Kemal Atatürka and his beloved ones are all portrayed as great human beings, who not only show deep love and courage; but also a capacity for fear, vulnerability and deep emotions.
