    One of the finest Turkish movies made in recent years.

    This movie is not an ordinary Turkish movie. It has a great and deep message. "Bahara Yolculuk" encompasses friendships, hardships, hopes and dreams. One of the finest Turkish films made in recent years.

    "Bahara Yolculuk" also has a very poignant and moving story about power of hope. And what is so great about the movie is that it gives you hope.

    The movie is based on a true story. A young teacher (Ismail) from Turkey whose goal is to establish a school in Kyrgyzstan leaving his country, comforts and family to create a better world. Instilling moral values in a new generation whilst overcoming the difficulties of opening a new Turkish school in a foreign land.

    opinion

    One of excellent movie that I watched in my entire life. This is the movie that tells us about how Gulen movement hug the people of other countries, how the movement stands against the ignorance and cruelty of other human beings. And also the story of movie is so perfectly following the idea of helping people whatever their belief and culture is not important. the important thing is just being human. One of the ideas that I figured out from the movie is if we solve the problems of humanity we solve every problem in the world. Whatever kind of it does not matter. Whatever complexities of it does not matter. Whatever difficulties of it does not matter.the only matter is look each other without judgment accept them with their own nature.

    Marvellous family film

    Hello everybody. Are you interested in emotional educational peaceful film? So, see SELAM BAHARA YOLCULUK. It is a Turkish made film. It takes place in Turkey and Kirghizistan in 1990s. A volunteer teacher immigrate to Kirghizistan with his family. He wants to open a school there. He confronts with many difficulties. This film is an excellent film that I have seen recently. İt is about Turkish social educational movement. They want to create a peaceful world by educating next generation all over the world. For this reason, I strongly recommend you see this film as soon as possible.

    I think this is an enough reason to see this film. Don't miss it

    There are still good people in the world

    There are some evil spirited people who speak and write against the Gulen Movement in Turkey. Gulen Movement talk back to them with the language of art in this movie. It is a snapshot of life of the dedicated educationists. The story has been inspired from a real story -The story of a teacher (Mr. İsmail). Mr. Ismail moved from Turkey to Kyrgyzstan to Open a School there. It is a piece of a global mosaic, the peace and humanity mosaic. Mr. Ismail believed this project with all his heart and bear any kind of difficulties for this purpose.

    What I see in the movie that success of education is all about communication and leaving no body behind left.

    Hizmet is a "verb"

    Movie is an excellent example for working, investing on future and generation is the most profitable action for humanity. I was shocked when i learned that some of the actors were teachers who were educated in these colleges which have shown in the movie. They were students, then became teachers and started to pay back as return on investment and also took one step ahead by advertising all of these to the world. I think this movement should be analyzed carefully because if a Kirghiz student can go to high school in Kirghizistan then goes to university in Turkey or another country then becomes teacher in Ghana or Kenya. That is really a huge action for bounding the nations in peace and that is not an utopia. As a result casting is good, scenario is good, costumes are good and decoration is good and realistic. It is worth to be seen. Do not miss it ;)
