Sous les applaudissements

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.

I have never seen a TV-series like this before. Although I have been watching TV for more than 40 years, this is the first time I felt that I have to comment about a TV show.

Berkun Oya's writing is phenomenal. Sometimes, a diologue/monologue or a sentence makes you laugh first, then it makes you think, and question the life and the world. The language and symbols he uses are very poetic at times. Unfortunately, some part of that beauty will be lost in translation. In some scenes, I didn't know how to react such as when little Metin was reciting a poem of Einar Georg Einarsson after witnessing his parents fight.

Although the show's messages about parenthood, childhood, relationships, and existential questions are to some extent universal, the world Berkun Oya created speaks more directly to people who lived their childhood in the 1980s and 1990s or people who were parents in the same time period.

I am hoping that they don't make another season and lose the originality of the show at the expense of commercial success.

A magnificent work of Berkun Oya. What scares me the most is whether the translations in other languages will kill the spirit of the work, since the language in which this work was written is Turkish.

Because whether it's New York or Tokyo, Mecca or the Vatican, I want people who consume this work to have the same pleasure I do.

Criticism of daily life? Criticism of society? Political criticism? Self-criticism? Reproach criticism? Criticism of religions that deny God?

Oya held her pen both harshly against everyone and everything and equal to everyone and everything.

The cast and the behind-the-scenes team, who are at least as successful as Berkun Oya, have worked hard to make this work leave a unique taste in people's minds.

This is why I love Netflix ... If Oya had continued making films, he would not have been this free and he would not have been able to reach so many people.

I think the same thing after every Berkun Oya work; I wonder what his next project will be like...

Thank you Berkun... again and again.

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.

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.
