Such a relief to watch a movie about family and love and caring. Great performances by Engin Duzyatim (from Dirilis Ertugrul) and the absolutely joyful young actress Gulizar who plays his niece, and many of the other actors. It's lovely. I cared about all the characters, and the story was well paced and engaging. This is at it's core a story about family -and we do really need these stories to remind us of what is truly important: the awakening of love and the changes that brings. Watch it for your heart.

Well I watched this movie as I am a big fan of Engin Altan Duzyatan having watched his work in Dirilis Ertugrul and Barbaroslar. And he didn't dissapoint me, Although the movie isn't a masterpiece by any means it hits the right notes, you feel good watching it throughout and get emotional in many scenes.

The movie is about 2 brothers who were very close in childhood and get separated for some reason(Don't wish to spoil by giving the reason). Both brothers are excellent violinists. The elder(Ali Raza) is poor though and younger(Mehmet) is famous well recognised. The elder brother gets a disease and passes away leaving his 8 year old daughter(who is an excellent violinist herself).

Initially reluctant to have her but as the movie progresses Mehmet (Engin) and his niece Ozlem develop a special bond.

As the movie is about violinists the music throughout is amazing.

The characters and actors portraying them are good.

Engin Altan Duzyatan is one of the finest actors worldwide.

Move along.cynics. This movie isn't for you. During these bleak times, I'd rather watch movies full of hope and redemption, while not ignoring our darker, selfish natures. Believe it or not, even the worst of us have the capacity to change, and become more loving and caring people.

Several times throughout this movie, I predicted what would happen next, and yet I still had joyful chills when my predictions came true. In spite of its predictability, it accomplishes telling a story of selfishness conquering selfishness, without a single bit of cheesiness.

I went to bed happy, rather than filled with dread. What's so wrong with that?

I'm a little biased when it comes to the beautiful Belcim Bilgin, I will watch anything she is in and the little girl did a great job!. The storyline was fairly predictable and you knew where it was going. I watch movies to be entertained, not criticise and I'd have been disappointed had it not ended the way it did.

I love Turkish movies, they seem to be devoid of of the special effects the Hollywood movies depend on these days and they have a knack of holding your interest throughout.

Wonderful cast in a sweet film that made for a lovely afternoon. Is it predictable-of course it is. But in a chaotic world filled with rage and horror these days, I welcomed the music and the gentle warmth. Like many countries, Turkey is making terrific films I enjoy so much.
