Çemberimde Gül Oya

Çemberimde gül oya is a masterpiece. People who want to learn what happened in Turkey in 70's should watch it. Personally, I believe that most of the last episodes or last parts of the movies or films end in a bad way. But in this film, final episode was perfect because you understand that every character and every event is connected to each other and everybody is found by the main character. This makes you surprised. Besides, Çemberimde gül oya manages a person to cry and laugh simultaneously!!! Although its ratings were not that high, this film created its own fans. I want to say thanks to Çagan Irmak for directing such a film.

am an Egyptian girl but i've been told that my great grandparents were Turkish..i've visited turkey for couple of times, antalya and Istanbul recently..i love the European and Asian combination...it just made me want t know more and more about anything that have to do with turkey.. i've been watching the TV series recently, tomorrow is the last day..i am THRILLED about the story...when it finishes i just cant wait to see it again..its translated here to Arabic.. it teaches you many things..there are political events happening..great love story going on...and warm family bondings taking place...all of these three factors are just belnded together in a very exciting and interesting way...and most of all its a very true reflection of the Turkish society and the life out there...i HONESTLY LOVE it!!!

it's one of the best Turkish TV series ever. why? first, the director/writer of the series has not added anything that never took place in turkey, i mean it includes no lies, no exaggerations. second, it is all about Turkish people, the neighbor relations were completely accurate. third, the relationship of the lead characters, yurdanur and mehmet, was not all painted in pink; we could feel that they were real people who had to disagree on some things and have fights from time to time. they were in love, but they were still on earth! fourth, i could always feel that the whole story was written with sincerity, with a purpose to remind Turkish people of their past, and not just with a motivation of earning quick cash. i can go on and on like this, but i think the summary is;thank you cagan irmak! for feeling, and for sharing this with us.

Basically this film is reflecting on the times of Turkey in the 1970's, the anarchy, the fight, the power. These times are told by a woman and her experience to a reporter> her daughter which works for a news agency. These times which in political disorder affect confusion and similarities on everyones mind blinds them silence.! But a girl of a rich family finds it worth loving a different man than loving money>> like her father. But he was also in love with her mother, this girl is the woman in this day.. They experience the fight which they unknowingly accepted the day they met, in a street of scattering crowd and open fire

In my opinion, Çemberimde Gül Oya is certainly one of the best TV series ever, as it shows the plain truths of the tough life in 70's and 80's in Turkey. Every episode displays the real difficulties that Turkish people had faced and had to struggle with. People being killed without a blink just because of their thoughts, no matter women or baby or old.. Some scenes can make you cry and some of them can make you laugh and also think deeply about life. Actors and actresses perfectly matched to their roles and the connection between past and present is marvelously played. Surely it deserves the best comments and it worths watching without missing any second of it. I have to say congratulations for both Çagan Irmak ,the director, and talented actors and actresses.
