Bir Başkadır - Acht Menschen in Istanbul

Have not seen such tremendous work for ages and i see lot of international TV shows. Every scene is so beautifully portrayed. It's provoking.It gets you. It should win lot of awards.Some of the best #ÖykuKarayel performance here. What cast ensemble. Just WOW!!! 👌 🏆

I don't remember ever watching a show from Turkey, so I didn't know what to expect. Not only is the story captivating, but the acting is top notch, world-class, and what's more, it's not "just a show", it actually has a high artistic value.

It's probably just me that I'm a little weird but the show also made me laugh to tears a couple of times. It's not intentionally funny, but there are dialogues that are so realistic and, even if delivered in an angry way, are painful and funny just like life is.

Turkish cinema has produced 2 phenomenal work of art in last decade. First one, Persona (2018), which was the rebirth, silver lining of the long dead performance arts, and Ethos showed us that Persona was just a beginning for a lot to come.

I am an Anglo Canadian for context. This series is among the finest I have seen in a long time. This gem needs no polishing. Every aspect is absorbing without any pretentions. Despite the cultural setting of multiple slices of Turkish society enveloped in secular and traditional tensions; each of the characters was well developed and very real. The interactions between the characters are so brilliantly crafted they elevate the drama beyond national borders. The actors are completely new to me but have become instantly memorable. A follow-up series? Just do it!

I'm not turkish but I visited several times, the show explains a lot of the contrast in lifestyle and culture present in Turkey. I love that the writing is not biased against any of the social levels and the scenario is very natural and sincere The cinematography, music and acting is excellet. I think personally a lot of international audience can relate to the story as alot of communities have the same polarisation within that feels like the fabric of the society is no longer consistent. Its the same here in Egypt and Middle East in general. We are exposed to same socio-economic and political unbalance, so its no surprise we reach the same outcomes. I can't wait for more episodes to be released! Please keep up the good work.
