Un coro di applausi

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.

The world is a lie or the lie is itself (y)our 'world'. What more could Berkun Oya do to illustrate the 'fact'. In fact orange is the answer. Hence there is no question around.

Those who only dream during the day cannot wake up. Even if they wake up, they struggle very hard to defend their dreams.

Frankly, I always had a feeling of discomfort while watching it. Maybe the production's mind wanted it that way.

I think I'll watch it over and over again. After all, there is always a big story where the little story is too small.

Not to be missed for those who wish they could just sit back and watch something enjoyable. Super mind-blowing.

A must watch!

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.

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.
