Yurt

The movie makes us watch the panorama of Türkiye in the 90s. This panorama is so narrow, so cramped that it looks like it is inside a dormitory. Ahmet and Hakan are stuck like each of us, looking for freedom. There were parts where I watched with bated breath. Spoiler: The only part I couldn't understand was what was Ahmet's father's motivation for a radical change? Would it make a big difference if the movie showed us this? I don't think so. Definitely a must watch. The movie Yurt reminded me of this quote. "Yours is not despair, it's boredom. Everyone alive has hope." Everyone alive has hope. No matter what our choices are. Just like the action of running away, which Ahmet sees as a last resort.

In fact, although the Evrenists were thought to be against religious communities in the 90s, they gave the greatest support. In fact, no religious community dormitory was inspected like in the film. If there had been, the nationalists would have used it as material and there would have been a lot of news. In addition, it can be said that the part where secularists attack the dormitories creates its own reality.

In conclusion, I think the film reflects the viewpoint of the Evrenists very well, they tried to stay in the middle by saying a little from them and a little from them.

I LOVE THIS!

An absolute feast of cinematic delights... From breathtaking cinematography to richly textured screenplay... This is a very very special film.

There's no point in telling the synopsis... The director, Nehir Tuna, uses the 'show, not tell' strategy to present this unique coming-of-age story... A wealthy teenage boy in 1996 Turkey parallelly attending a private school for rich kids and a religious school for poor kids where he also lives in a dormitory or Yurt... It is filled with countless fleeting moments of quiet observations and subtle commentaries on power, politics, love, rage, religion, obsession, friendship, class difference, income inequality, maturity and much more... which makes this film so Effective and Unforgettable.

Can't wait to watch more films from this director. Top-notch craftsmanship.

I really loved this film-visually splendid and carried by outstanding performances. It subtly explores the grip of religious brotherhoods, operating in the shadow of Atatürk's legacy. With meticulous direction and a sensitive narrative, Yurt reveals an unfamiliar Turkey (for me) far from the cosmopolitan image of Istanbul that defines the country for most of people., The film is caught between tradition and secularism. We follow the inner turmoil of a young man navigating between these two opposing worlds, torn between the weight of his father's expectations and his desire to live freely, like any other teenager-but also those who don't have the privilege of existing between the two. Very touching and immersive, the film offers a poignant reflection on the search for freedom in a country undergoing profound transformation. A striking and singular work.

If you only knew how sorry I feel for our children who experienced this and similar things. Unfortunately, things like this can still happen. Children who are sent to such dormitories for a purpose without even consulting their children may face many psychological problems throughout their lives. They always filter the events they experience through a religious filter and forget who they are. They lose their own character because they constantly shape their perspectives according to the moral values imposed on them. As someone who has many friends around him, like our main character Ahmet, and who has talked to people who have experienced such things many times, I was amazed. The director touched on the sensitive points so correctly that I felt like I had experienced these things. An incredible expression, so emotional. In my opinion, every viewer can find something from themselves in this movie... Congrats all the actors, especially precious director Nehir Tuna.
