I just love how Mr. Oya in Turkish movies captures the emotions of the actors. I am tired of fast shows, quick emotion changes in Turkish shows, the rollercoasters, the love triangles, the horrible comedy, so this movie genre completely changes Turkish movies. It is just refreshing to tap into oneself. Also the actors must have it pretty hard, since the scenes are shot long. Though they did an amazing job. So generally, it is a very slow movie, less action and I do believe that this is Mr. Oyas intention. Loved it. Parents were saying it is boring and slow, but they still watched every single minute of it! :)

From TV series to almost festival films Berkun Oya follows an interesting path in Turkis TV/Cinema. From 3 works i've seen it is safe to say that he would fancy uncetralised collection of stories. Masum was had a main story line unraveled with nunerous character arcs. Bir Baskadir was the epitome if it. Making that in a film is however very difficult an i think ge didn't do it well enough. Ayça Bingöl's character's arc was rushed, Fatih Artman's character had too much emotional burden despite missing character development. It is obvious that it is quite hard to maintain balance and construct satisfying narration for bulk of characters but sometimes it is better to change the construct rather than dictating it. The film has upsides too and it is even partially thanks to fulfilling character development. My favourite is Yilmaz Erdogan's character. It is so well written, that also lead to a strong performence from him, althoght Erdogan's a better writer than actor. Score and music is also great and works beautifully. Cinematography is also very good. It can be nitpicking but i expected a more pulsating approach in dad's punishment scene and at plot twist/expectation subversion moment. I think Berkun Oya can do much better and there is room to improve. I think he has potential to overcome this challenge.
