Sadik is a young Turkish youth who bravely pursues freedom and ideals, abandoning the smooth road arranged by his father: to be an agricultural engineer in his hometown, manage his own farm, marry a beautiful girl from his hometown and have children, and live a peaceful life. Just like father huseyin's own life, but this is not what sadik wants.
In the 1970s, Turkey encountered a serious political and social crisis. Sadik, as a responsible and radical young man, changed the status quo of the country as his ideal, so he became a rebel in the eyes of his father. From then on, father and son became strangers. However, Sadik's ideal road was not smooth. Newspapers did not publish his articles. The coup paralyzed the hospital system, and his wife also suffered from dystocia. After giving birth to the only son Deniz, he lost too much blood and died. At the dawn of dawn, sadik with a pale face and sluggish expression was holding deniz, which was stained with his wife's blood and had no time to clean. On the grass next to him, his wife's body was already cold. A passing soldier told him that there was a coup d'etat last night. Immediately afterwards, sadik was imprisoned and abused because of his involvement in the military coup, and deniz could only be raised by a good-hearted fat mother. sadik is released from prison, deniz gradually grows up, knows nothing about what his father has suffered, he loves to read books, he has a colorful fantasy world, in fantasy dad is a superhero, grandpa is a majestic hero, grandpa's mysterious house There are many interesting scenes such as treasures and ghosts.
Sadik's lung disease developed into a terminal illness due to the abuse and harsh conditions in prison. In order to give his son a home, he returned to his hometown. In his heart, he has never really left here. This place has a father and relatives and friends, a father with a cold face, a warm-hearted mother, a warm and optimistic mother, a honest and lovely big brother, here Everything made him feel friendly. A former friend asked him: We all dreamed of getting out of here, you succeeded, and I didn't, as someone who dare not try, do you think I missed a lot? After so much, if you were given another choice, would you go or stay? sadik said: I don't know, I want to bring everything there and bring everything here. But it's the hardest thing to do if you can't bring it or take it away. I always thought I was fighting for my country, but this country doesn't care. Disillusioned, he has never been free, from the control of his father to the cage of the government. But he still did not give up the pursuit of ideals and freedom. Spend all family talking about father: life will go on. Someone will write a new book, but you can't read it. Someone will make a new movie, but you can't see it. You want to listen to your favorite song again, but you can't. He grows up slowly, but you are not by his side, and you can't see him when he has a girlfriend. Dad, my heart seems to be burning. It was the burning sensation of unfinished business behind it. Dad, give him a home and let him come and go freely.
From the moment sadik was talking to my father in the yard, my grief started to brew, until sadik fell to the ground, my emotions also collapsed, and the tears flowed out of control until the end of the film
. In the face of the imminent farewell, the father and son finally reconciled because of the love that is thicker than water. In fact, until sadik died, my father still couldn't understand his departure, so there was a funeral remorse: if I stood here like this at that time, if I opened my arms like this at that time, if I stopped him like this at that time , if I told him not to go, 15 years ago, if I stood here like this, he wouldn't go... The crazy self-blame separated the father's mental state from the outside world, the aunt let the brother salim rush past the father, And he said: "Have you seen it? No one can stop you if you want to leave alone"! Father woke up from a dream. A person's growth and independence cannot be stopped. Just like at the end of the movie, sadik in the camera said to his son, one day, you will grow up and no longer need me.
Because of the times and the environment, we cannot expect our parents and children to think like us. We can only respect and let go, give them freedom, give them a room, and let them come and go freely. This is a story about the collision of freedom and ideals with family love. Every character in the film is vivid and natural, and there are many moving details in the film: recalling the naughty childhood with my brother in the vineyard, grandpa buying a book for deniz, the projection in the mysterious room Machine, the father and mother's secretly sad but forbearing expressions when taking the family photo, deniz's first cry after his father's death, etc... I won't describe them one by one. The music in the film plays a very good role in setting off the atmosphere, making you sink in the unique Turkish style...
