Un fuerte aplauso

I saw the first 3 episodes in one row. It's very beautiful how the series mixes comedy with drama. Mixing inner selves with reality has very novel solutions. It deals with a long period. And it suits it very well.

It can be slow for someone who trained in today's series but the slowness always pays off.

So I will continue to watch. And it's playing with the language. Very psychological. But always breaks it with humor you never know if it is real. It's a dream or just someone imagining it, or some inner voice.

I recommend it to people who like more artistic movies and series. It could have been a 3-hour movie.

It describes the traumas experienced by the anxious-avoidant son of a codependent mother and an emotionally unavailable father.

The mother got married and had a kid in order not to be alone. Even though he is extremely unhappy, she cannot leave the marriage. She is too fond of his son. All of these facts make her codependent.

The mother cannot express her feelings to her husband because her husband is emotionally unavailable. That is probably why she created an identical partner in her mind with whom she can talk about her feelings easily making her feel relieved. The father's reaction to his son's song and bad skills in Math classes, etc. Also proves his emotional unavailability.

The boy develops an avoidant attachment style due to his parents' quarrels and the lack of a father-son relationship, and an anxious attachment style due to his mother's overly attached attitude towards him. His judgmental and patronizing attitude that led to his first breakup shows his avoidance side, his post-breakup regret and the fact that he fell apart in 8 hours after the breakup shows his anxious side. He exhibits a similar attitude in the encounter with his ex years later. Ultimately, he matures at a very early age as someone who can't belong anywhere.

I find it one of the greatest work in Turkish TV history. Although it is a dramatic story itself, they balanced it by adding absurd comedy elements. I laughed out loud from time to time, some scenes had cartoon-like characteristics.

Berkun Oya strikes back! A special tribute and masterpiece from 2024 to the plastic arts adventure of mankind! Needless to praise how details are attentively studied and executed: From light to objects, their positions, orientation!

Plasticity of script is strongly woven with improvise-like loaded syntax. All lead characters' phases and speech freedom is recognized. 'Flow' is felt by hearth. In my humble amateur (audience only) opinion, storytelling with absurdity is original and catching! End of 5th episode final is the zest of such climax! A frame by frame thoughtful execution mesmerized me as if an ecstatic joy is met! All five dimensions are devised with a chilling virtuosity! I am honored and lucky to track this teams' work!

Therefore a very strong continues round of applause for such an exceptional work! That is/was/will rarely visit digital platforms.

I started watching the first episode without any intention of binging it. However, I finished the six episodes in a few sittings. So, it was not a bore for me. However, it might not be everyone's cup of tea, especially if they seek linearity in fiction.

There are laughing moments, there are quasi-substantial moments etc.

I liked the 4 year old kids' take on love and life.

I did not like playing with the fourth wall moments all that much.

Berkun Oya seems to have found more familiar waters to swin in this time though, in terms of socio-economic class familiarity with the characters, events, life-styles etc.

The series is as good as this review: It deserves a chance in the desert of Turkish culture.

It addresses both the life we live and the feeling of being trapped in life itself, but it does so in a very unconventional way. The acting is superb and it's a marvelous work. Another interesting point is that, considering the total duration of the series (approximately 6x25 minutes), it manages to achieve this in a way that feels like poetry. It's a separate achievement that it prompts so much thought in such a short amount of time. The music at the end of the episodes is also very fitting. Don't rush to move on to the next episode. I recommend the original language with subtitles. Unfortunately, dubbing doesn't convey the same emotion." 10/10.
