Eflâtun

The film Eflatun is a high-quality, "tasty" festival movie. The Director Cüneyt Karakus, who wrote the script, was inspired for creation of Eflatun by a meeting with a visually impaired man on the street. He offered to help him, but to his shame (by his own admission) he realized that he didn't know how to behave with that man. Cüneyt Karakus dedicated this movie to all people with disabilities.

The main emphasis in the film is made on details and seemingly insignificant little things. The Director especially emphasizes sounds, smells and imagination

Kerem Bürsin playing Oflaz in this movie is again quite different than in other his works. He hardly laughed, seemed detached and lost. Meeting with Eflatun changed him, or on the contrary, reminded him of what he once was. Oflaz "showed" Eflatun a different world, as I thought he reminded her of her father, with whom she had special relationships.

Several times I held back tears, the play of Kerem (one love) and Irem (bravo), touched the most delicate strings of the soul, and of course, at the end I could not resist.

It would seem to be a classic plot, the meeting of a guy and a girl, but the aftertaste of watching this film is felt like warmth inside, as from a cup of hot chocolate on a cold day.

This film became a symphony for me! Enchanting in its sounds and beyond.

What a magnificent sound this film has! There is something incredible about it! A perfect harmony! And, of course, the voice of Oflaz (Kerem Bürsin).

I found the director's choice to show the world through the prism of shimmering colors and shadows in Eflâtun's imagination extraordinary and original.

And, of course, symbolism is present in everything: in the sounds, colors, objects, phrases, movements, and scenes. Nothing is superfluous. A high and perfect harmony of every element.

A very delicate, fascinating, aesthetic, and at the same time deeply touching and passionate film. A work that leaves a deep mark on the soul and an endless trail of reflections on the meaning of life.

In one word, a symphony that mesmerizes from the very first note and doesn't let go until the final chord.

Kerem Bürsin is incredible here, as he is everywhere! Once again, I was amazed by his outstanding acting professionalism! A true master of transformation! The actress Irem Helvacioglu, who played Eflâtun, was very natural and authentic.

One of the best films about love. It's a beautiful story. Sensual, very soulful.

The film is incredibly bright. I have so many emotions and aftertaste... And from the first to the last frame. I watched this movie until the very end credits, I just couldn't stop the music. And at all.

All the ambitions of the director are fully justified.

This is really the most romantic and most wonderful film about love.

The pandemic was terrible, but even in the worst there is something good. Eflyatun.

This is a movie for everyone, for the widest range.

I was afraid of some kind of hopelessness and depression, but I repeat, the film is very bright, warm, emotional in the best sense of the word. So many powerful scenes. That's really every frame is valuable.

Well, actually, this is basically one of the best films I've seen. And among the melodramas, perhaps the best.

The film is measured, unhurried, you have time to comprehend the plot. There are pauses between dialogues and in such pauses you leaten to silence, or some natural sounds: if the characters are in a watch workshop, you can hear the clock running; if they are on the sea shore, you hear the sound of the surf, but all these sounds are soft and unobtrusive.

The sound of rain...- there is a separate story related to rainy days and umbrellas. Music and sounds represent key aspects in the story and in the life of Eflatun (the main women character).

Both actors play great and no one hogs the blanket. Everything is very calm, without quarrels and scandals. Kerem Bursin here acts in a completely new image. When I watched the movie I did not see Kerem and totally believed he was Oflaz.

The movie makes you want to watch it a second time, it makes you think. And definitely recommend to watch Eflatun on the big screen (if you have a chance).

Cuneyt Karakus (the Director of the film) told what motivated him to make this story and the actors magnificently embodied in this movie his feelings, emotions, his inner world.

Independent Turkish production, whose theatrical release after excellent reviews and awards at several international festivals, has finally been announced in Turkey for next March 29, 2024.

It is important to highlight the excellent performance of its two main protagonists Eflatun and Olaf.

Kerem Bursin internationally recognized and admired actor in the role of Olaf alongside Irem Helvacioglu in the role of Eflatun.

The plot revolves around love combined with the sensations and feelings that human beings are capable of perceiving far beyond the feeling of sight and therefore the physical appearance, simply from a tone of voice.

A priori there is no doubt that this is a really interesting and different argument.

It is very important to highlight how difficult it is in today's film industry for an independent production to be released without the support of any production company.

Eflatun has been able to achieve this Congratulations.
