Filhos de Istambul

" When there is misery all around, a little laughter feels cruel" A somewhat mawkish and a little tonal whiplash.. also, it could use a little more snipping, less less screaming ..while the conclusion is not unforeseeable, it does feel rushed in in unfastening it... but great cinematography, reminds me of my Istanbul trip... reveals the poverty that prevails in that part of the world ...once which was an imperial capital and now a economic capital with strong GDP....storyline is a Oliver Twist with a twist and heartbreaking.. few beautiful moments and sequences .. a great watch..

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.

Sweet, angelic, sensitive, exciting, passionate, delicate... Emir Ali Dogrul's performance is fantastic, painful scenes, stupendous, Çagatay Ulusoy also delivered an impeccable and intense, visceral performance ... Beautiful photography, referring to playfulness and poetry, contrasting with the poor and dirty reality of the scavengers ... The Turks know how to hurt, they leave us with a little heart tight ... And what an outcome, what an outcome !!!

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.

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
