Sumru Yavrucuk was great. And others was too. why did you give 5 for this movie??? Min must be 7

As a man i cried alot .it s very underrated point. sumru yavrucuk and others marvelous playing . it very sad and dont watch with your mom she cries much

I enjoyed watching the movie. Good actors and very emotional movie. But when it ended I thought this cant be the end! Sucha depressing meaningless ending which i dont understand.

Depressing from start to end !! Pointless and Vague to the point I couldn't understand any idea behind the movie !! Sorry but one of the worst movies I've ever watched !!

Moving from country to metropolis... check Drunk father, suffering mother... check Rich boy, poor girl... check Sad music during dialogs... check Poor acting... check Most of Turkish TV shows cover these features. This one tries to supriese audience with a twist but that does not change this is a poor cliche movie.

The sadness in the movie is painful. Our current reality is the same. God heals every patient

It is sadness without a goal. The mother acted in a great way, but what is the purpose of making the daughter sick and to have its end open?

The plot has no goal. No clearly recognizable topic. Especially at the end, you remark there is no sense because it's not realistic. The only good things are the acting especially of sumru yavrucuk and that there is no unnecessary subplot

What a waste of time and emotions for 2 Sad story without any specific goal DONT WATCH IT

Complete frustration. Delicate casting but limp screenplay with agitating cliche cinematography. Bucket flows of emotional exploited motherly DNA. Conflicting plans, weak storytelling. It is wonder when a new generation lead a nice way of storytelling.

My mum devoted her life for me and for my other siblings. That's so sad but I also did same mistakes like Nazli before alot. I feel so sorry about it now. When I watched this movie I remembered about my childhood how my mum's cared for us and how she was proud when I also entered and studied abroad. I gave 10/10 for this movie. I want to thank for creators of this movie and my special thanks for actors and actresses.

No, really, I will never understand reasons to make such movies. At least withdraw the 7+ category. Waste(((

I have seen Özge playing in romantic comedy and now I see her in a drama..she is really good actress!!!

Trully trash movie One of badest story line i ever seen And the story make no sense!

Özge wonderful in this film the drama is FULL and i Was crying when i watching , really you must watch this

This movie demands a serious watch, this is not a saccharine flick to simply pass some idle time. It is a coming-of-age story of a young lady in the Turkish countryside. The title character's father is almost absent leading her mother to fill the void, which the latter attempts to do to the best of her ability. Unfortunately, the daughter feels ashamed and embarrassed of her simple bucolic mom and yearns for a chance to get out through education. Later on, having matured and passed a few traditional social adulthood markers and more than her fair share of tragedy she starts to introspect on her previous conduct.

I found the movie to be extremely well-acted, so much so that I felt like I was watching real-life playing out in front of me and not a motion picture. Honestly, I have rarely cried as much as I did watching this movie. The mark of a good film is when it stays with you long after the last credits roll away, and the mark of a truly great film is when it makes you question your own life choices and leaves you with an inkling of knowledge to apply to your own life. This film fulfilled this purpose for me. It's worth the watch if you are in the state of mind to absorb a serious study of the human condition. Happy Viewing!

How come "Sumru Yavrucuk" not nominated for an Oscar on this movie !!

Amazing mother daughter story, only the ending is not that good, I preferred a happy ending not sad.

This movie is a must watch movie.

This movie broke me.

I watched other turkish movie like Miracle from cell no. 7 and Mucize (The Miracle) and i somehow knew that, this is gonna be a movie were i (most likely) might cry.

From the start, the mother shows affection to her daughter, loves her, worries about her when she's cold/sick. The father...not so much And honestly, this kinda started to look familiar

And then, when her daughter grows up and goes to school, she makes sure that she has everything she needs, make sure she eats, visit her at school to bring her something to eat. But her daughter feels like she's embarased by her mother for showing up at school because the kids might laugh at her.

Again, it looks so familiar

Even when they were fighting, the mother was still looking for her, loved her, even bargaining in the local market to save money, in the actual cookie jar, for her daughter to go to college.

At this point i kinda startet to sob, that's definitely 100% my mother. She does this kinda of things for me, even if we bicker sometimes And most of the times i don't see that or i refused to acknowledge.

When her daughter left for the big city and had to say goodbay to her, stalling by keep talking to her, she realised she has to let her go and started crying. At that point i started crying as well, seeing my mother in the same position, knowing how much she cares about me and seeing me go, alone, by myself, without her by my side to make sure i'm fine.

At his point were sequences were they made me cry or sob because little things made by her mother, like bringing potatoes or beetroot from her village to her daughter in the big city. I know that feeling, even if me and my mother we live in the same city.

But the scene were i realy lost it, was when her daughter returns back in the village and her mother say "every kid returns to his mother", i just completely explode in tears. I could't see the next minutes from the movie.

And the fact that everytime when her daughter was visiting her, she was getting older and older which, sadly, is what i'm dealing right now. Seeing my mother getting older is breaking my heart.

And if that wasn't enough, when her mother finds out somthing about her daughter, my entire body was freezing. I could't imagine to be in that position to say that to my mother. It's just so painfull.

The ending is the same, i understand it, the fate is written. I cried even through the credits, i just couldn't stop.

I tried to keep this as spoilerless i could, you have to see this movie by youself and understand that even the smallest thing made by your mother it's gonna count so much for her.

It took me more than 40 minutes to write this, i was crying even typing this review, it made me see the relation beetwen the mother and his kid from an outside perspective. Even if my mother does the same, most of the times i just don't appreciate or i'm taking it for granted because i'm her son.

Doesn't matter if right now i'm 32 or will be 40 or 50, i will still be my mother's kid, the one who would love me and trying to do what's best for me, even that means she won't have to eat so i have something to.

I don't understand the low reviews, maybe they didn't have such a close connection with their mother or didn't get the same treatment, which it makes it sad.

Don't waste time, love your mother before it's to late and feel bad when she's gone because you didn't show her that. At that point, even tears won't help you.
