Winning critical acclaim from an overwhelming majority of Turkish critics, and creating an uproar of discussion throughout the country, this is what Turkish cinema has been waiting for.
Don't mind the score on IMDb, the ultra-conservatives in Turkey are trying to throw mud on this absolute gem of a film. In a country where even discussing this topic openly is subject to taboo, this is a courageous and beautifully rendered film full of surprises and twists.
Telling the tale of a conservative girl in Turkey, who falls in love with a liberal journalist, it depicts the exquisite story of the two faces of Turkey: secular, and religious.
With an emphasis in falling in love, and the repercussions ıf this phenomenon of belief, religion, social prejudice and loneliness, it has a solid screenplay and a beautifully minimal cast of talented young actors.
28 year old Alper Caglar has made an incredible debut with this film, and the incredible 8 minute finale of this unique love story will resonate with you for years.
Don't miss it - 10/10
