Filhos de Istambul

A special performance by Cagatay Ulusoy and a good music in the whole movie and a very good direct and crew Just all are so perfect Intersting and very sadly

This film broke me. It accurately depicts the living conditions of Istanbul's street life while wonderfully conveying the sorrow of the heartbreaking drama of a man who earns his life collecting trash. The acting and soundtracks were also amazing.

One of the best Turkish films I've watched lately. Would definitely recommend; it's worth your time.

And the ending my god...

6/10.

A very moving, riveting story that touches the heart. The story and cinematography are amazing- I like how they help make the scenes more poignant. The acting was on point and no scene was out of balance.

Or may I also say Hector Babenco - the author of PIXOTE - the Brazilian masterpiece speaking of poverty, ghettos and the urban jungle where it is a terrible struggle to survive. The most painful in watching this kind of feature is to think that there are tons of them which remain under the radar of the distributors and other festivals. Thanks to Netflix to release them. This movie is however a bit smoother than PIXOTE, though remaining very dark and gloomy. I also found a tiny relation between this film and Fritz Lang's MOONFLEET, because of the adult child relationship, a touching and poignant line for this unforgettable film. But maybe this is a bit too artificial, destined to make audiences weep. But that's my own opinion and that doesn't remove anything from this movie, that could have taken place in Mexico or any Central America country, where poverty spreads like a plague.

Greetings from Portugal :) Loved the movie and I cried a lot. But its impossible not to do so. How can anyone see this movie without getting emotional? This movie was so intense and sad. We could feel Mehmet pain :( But, I loved it anyway. I love the director and the main actor. Çagatay was incredible. All the cast were. The storyline is great. It´s a harsh but true picture of the cruel situation of many street children around the world :( Everyone involved in this project is to be congratulated :)
