fahritasdemir's reviews

Since it got started in December, I have become a regular follower of Filinta. With its special effects that we have never seen before on TV, successful actors and scenario of good quality, Filinta made a huge breakthrough in Turkey. It is known that Turkish people love detective stories - even some Sultans were fan of it! - and Ottoman touch wouldn't have been better on those stories. I definitely recommend it. I also want to say something about Mehmet Ozgur in role of Kadi Giyaseddin Hatemi. He appears as the mayor of Galata district and also tutor of Filinta Mustafa. What I like about him is that he gives messages showing the good side of Turkish culture with a short scene in each episode. For instance, during the days of a university student girl - Ozgecan Aslan - was raped and murdered by two men, Kadi Giyaseddin had a scene saying that treating women bad is unacceptable. Of course he bases his arguments on Islam but I find him as a very powerful character in that sense.
