    Mediocre

    It was a movie I wanted to watch for a long time. I watched with great expectation but could not find what I was looking for. Much more successful work can be done by using the Turkish Greek Common Culture.

    touches on lost aspect of European culture, especially poignant in Thrace and Istanbul

    When the Greeks and the Turks separated, quite traumatically 100 years ago the "solution" was hard boundaries, both physical and cultural, where these people with so much in common had to define themselves by emphasizing their differences, --and looking askance at, or down on, their commonalities.

    It is pleasant to see a film, whatever its minor flaws, touch on the commonalities. And a lost world of so much in common that for future generations might be regained

    Congrats the director !

    A sentimental movie about poorness antifashism , friendship and immigration. A movie that makes u smile as well as make you think. Beautiful Turkish songs made me cry . As watching I realized ones more how similar Greeks and Turks .

    Extremely tremendous...

    Never my soul have been shaken before like this. Especially the "musics-story-cast" trio complete each other as a wild harmony. Every people who carry a heart may absolutely affected by this georgeous movie.A desperate requiem is waiting for you. I should have been watched this before...

    fresh air

    Its lovely freshness represents the main virtue defining it. Its sources - no doubts, the inspired option to craft his character by Daphne Patakia, the atmosphere of a Greece very far by touristic image" promotion, the small stories of characters, the nostalgia and adventures and beauty of bodies and joys reflection and the end, with its social message and fair portrait of hope .

    It is real a beautiful film and you feel this, not having words to define that.

    Because it is a film about life, precise description, bitter - sweet flavors and lovely image of what matters in essence.

    So, at first sight, a summer, easy film, with few profound unrealistic scenes . But this makes it real - real- real good inspiring its adorable fresh air.
