Les Chants du cœur

Soner Caner's latest project, which I have been following since the movie "Rauf" and even took it a step further and reached the level of Stalker.

Soner Caner is a director with the mindset I love, each film is a different color, a different genre, but they all make you feel like they are a Soner Caner movie from the very first frame.

There is a similar viewing pleasure in Tolga Karacelik's movies.

It's hard to believe that "Mukavemet", one of the two movies I watched in 3 months, and this movie came out of the mind of the same person.

Gönül / Heartsong In Caner's mind, it's like taking a stroll in Southeast Anatolia with Emir Kusturica.

Again, Caner was not content with the fact that the names in his staff exist as celebrities, and he made them go to the limit as far as they could go both visually and in terms of performance.

Just like in the films Rauf and Mukavemet, Caner is successful in reminding the actor that he is an actor and a part of the story, which is the subject of the new Turkish cinema's most unsuccessful.

The sound engineering and cinematography of the film are also great.

I don't understand why this was in the top watched list on Netflix in turkey.

Another comment on here said ""no matter what the opinions are about it, you should watch it because it has achieved the most important goal in art, which is enjoyment."" Which Is exactly why I was struggling to finish the movie. No matter how "artistic" the movie is, There was Zero enjoyment. The story is boring. The way most characters are weird/ "quirky" became annoying and cringey at some point. I'm not into musical movies so I had to skip the music parts. The story is not unique or anything. The overall theme is basic and it has been done a lot in turkish movies/ series.

Amelie was such a lovely, delightful movie , Heartsong is even sweeter, more heart , more real life ,even less talking, more music. I never write a review and dont cry in movies easy , but this is another level real life bittersweet romance and told in an easy way with no pressure , just pure love and soul.

It actually shows a bit of real life of the roma back in the days , i guess 30.40 years ago.

The lead actors and especially the female actress act with such pure soul. I am surprised and happy , seeing such a lovely turkish movie.

Can i ask , why the reviews have to be a million characters long ?

Perfect scenes, great music, top acting... The culture presented is a mixture of original cultures of Anatolia and becomes international. It feels like Gypsy culture mostly, but then becomes Kurdish, later Turkish nomad, sometimes Laz,... but later, it even feels like Indian, African or Latino... It's so close and yet so far at the same time. I smiled and cried at the same time... Like a delicious recipe with various spices.

I love this quirky, sweet movie. The setting is cool..... the small village in the mountains. The way they live in their tents/cars.

The story is very original. Good acting and filmmaking.
