It's really hard to come up with this wrong perspective to your own culture. I gave two points for this amazing mistake. The director and the script writer, basically everyone in the show deliberately misleads people about the facts. We don't usually expect facts from tv shows but this show is acclaimed for portraying "truth" for a culture. It ends up with portraying a capitalist exploitive class of movie producers that has been a fact in the modern world. A class of movie producers that will shoot anything for social reactions, benefits and as a result, money. This tv show makes an intentional exaggeration of cultural differences on a sensitive issue, thus making gain from the tension for the expense of reality. The disgusting part is, the crew reflected their own worldview as factually sound. They're fooling western people with an obsolete orientalism in the same way they exploit reactionist social media groups that is ready to touch on the sensitive issues with radical approaches.

You can say this film is about Turkish army, but it's about our future. Our future is displayed through Turks. You can see Turkey as a window to human playground, Middle East. Middle East is a projection of our forthcoming. These events, these brutal acts of humanity is being our destiny. This movie points us our shame in a fashion of objectivity. The director saw the news which consists of Muslims killing each other, and needed an eye inside. This eye is a secular army and free from foreign influences. You can empathize with this Turkish soldiers. You can take this squad as your eyes. They're observing the Middle East tragedy, suitable to common sense. A common sense that says killing, raping, oppressing people won't be limited to this geoghraphy. We're human, but together. We're alive, but together. Don't let anyone to oppress the living things.
