When i watch the movie i felt like asghar farhadi movies which is persian director doing great realistic movies too. It is very familiar when you born and raise in turkish family same kind of attitudes,personalities and paradox.you feel the distress and ambiance during movie and you can understand charachters very easily which is actors are great too.

Exegarated in an unfair way
furkanov8 January 2022
Realistic atmosphere and above average acting ruined by poor writing & directing.
Long story short; idea of the movie is, if you're a member of a low-class family in Istanbul which moved there from a north-eastern small city to establish a new life, and also if your family has not well-understanded religious beliefs and practises, you're the source of all the evil in the world. But if you're secular and a schoolgoer / middle+ class citizen, you cannot have that bad personalities...
That point of view reminded me old Turkish "Saban" movies where every Muslim or mosque related people are dramatically bad.
Ironically, movie had government support (ministry of culture), that arguable government who rules the state by the votes of lots of 'Muhittins' according to this movie's creators' philosophy.
So, who is the real Muhittin here?
