Compared with 2002's "Far Away", the background of the story shifted from Istanbul to Cappadocia, leaving aside the glitz of the city, the relationship between people, and the loneliness of individuals, which are as unremarkable as the strange rocks in Cappadocia. Coveredly exposed. The loneliness in the movie is more realistic and sharper than that in "Far Away", almost stripping the audience's hypocrisy across the screen.
Each individual's mind is independent, and it is nearly impossible to penetrate the barriers of personal experience and inject the minds of others. No one can really understand another human being, so human beings are inherently alone. But emotional loneliness is not caused by “not understanding” itself, but by prejudice and disrespect. The conversation between Nico and Aiden, and Nico and Nihal, staged the narrowest conflict between people, which is to hide one's own ugliness by demeaning others. It's that demeanor that keeps Nicole out of a wider world and makes her so lonely.
In the dialogue between Aiden and Nihal, Aiden repeatedly asked: "What did I do wrong? Why don't you understand me? Why is it so unfair?" This is also the question that the audience repeatedly asks others in their daily lives. . But who has ever thought that they have ever understood others? Have you ever understood the "incomprehension" of others? Have you ever given others the opportunity to understand you? Who is really fair? Like myself, when I become a party to a conflict, I often think "the other side should feel guilty", "how to make the other side feel guilty", but the truth is: I should feel guilty first. But everyone is the same, deceived by their own pride, controlled by their own arrogance, refuses to bow to reality and admit their faults.
When Aiden, who wanted to escape and ran away, returned home and saw Nihal behind the window, he seemed to have understood that it was his pride that locked him in his own world, and he failed to let Nihal come in. Failing to let himself go out and touch the world Nihar knew. He really went into hibernation when he started writing The History of Turkish Drama. Living in the sense of fullness brought to him by the things he is familiar with, compromising with a marriage without love, with a career without passion, the ideal that he really wants to achieve is his love with Nihal, and the one who rides a motorcycle. Like people who travel by car, they leave in a hurry and never return. What could be more lonely than this?
