Você Já Viu Vagalumes?

A well-known story for Turkish theater lovers. The scenario was processed successfully. Congratulations to the whole team. A performance that deserves an award from Ecem Erkek.

Have You Seen Fireflies? Yes, they are beautiful and threatened with extinction, as cute and charming as the film, but beware, strong triggers, loneliness, resilience, exaggerated machismo of a strongly patriarchal society, it hurts deep inside the soul, a beautiful and intensely sad film... The context history and evolution from 1960 to the present day and every revolution, excellent film cloth ... "Life is more difficult for those who are intelligent."

There are and will be many negative reviews. This is mainly because the film is based on a play, which was very successful in its time (with different actors). However, the film neither intends to be better than the play nor to replace it. It is simply a play in its own right, which should be considered on its own merits and not compared to the original play. Therefore, I recommend everyone to watch the film and form their own opinion.

The Ecem Erkek is excellent, but her character swings between charming and annoying. The cast is a mixed bag of competent and terrible acting. I almost stopped watching, but I stayed with it and was rewarded with the beautiful "half-written story that lasts a lifetime." Even though it was predictable, for I have lived that story as well, it was handled gently and lovingly. That line alone will resonate with me personally. I also loved the ending, sweet and lovely. I have seen fireflies, especially in my childhood, but I am told they still magically appear in secret places they have slipped away to in order to escape the carelessness of humans.

Execellent. Masterpiece. A nice overview of last 50 years of Turkey. Being a strong woman, being a smart woman always has many challenges in Turkey.
