Kübra

Kubra comes with a message for all humanity, a message that can be assimilated by everyone, regardless of religion, ethnicity, country. Universal values such as truth, love, brotherhood, joy, happiness, compassion, generosity are the same for all people on earth. The duality existing in everything makes us choose between faith and doubt, between love and hate, between light and darkness, between balance and chaos. We need faith, without which we are lost in the whirlwind of the world. Kubra is a successful serial in terms of script, direction, acting. Cagatay Ulusoy disturbs us, by the way he animates Gokhan, so deeply, convincingly, to the point of identification with him. I liked Kubra, it impressed me, it surprised me with that last episode, the key to the series, artificial intelligence, who and how will use it, this is the question of the moment. My recommendation is addressed to those who follow a series with their eyes, heart and mind. Don't miss Kubra.

As someone who can both relate to the culture and the religion displayed in the series, until the end, I was only watching hoping that the ending would be in a similar fashion. Kubra is a series that display simply mankind. All though some part were quite corny and hard to watch, the message that is delivered is the status quo of the country it is based out of. It depicts the balance of power, social and economic realities, political Islam and the tension within the nation that could be ignited with a single match. All though it seems far-fetched from reality, it is closer than it seems. The dystopian and fiction aside, with certain twists to the plot, it has the potential to be real, because it did in the past and the original author was most likely influenced and referrenced it.

Faith, belief, cultism, looking for a better future, entrenched powers fighting change, corruption..... Basic human traits and flaws meet in this Turkish series. Is Gokhan chosen by God to be his spokespreson and usher a change? Or is he just delusional? Or are there other factors at play? It's a nice look at.intersection of faith, politics and social movements. Who is playing whom? Who has ulterior motives? Who really believes and who is just going with the flow? And who is trying to harness this for their own gain?

Overall the story is interesting and compelling but at points thing happen at the pace of plot and people act the way they do simply to further plot and not because it's a rational and logical thing to do.

There is a Hollywood series with a similar premise and plot, which was in turn inspired by different series as well. I won't say which ones due to spoilers but you'll likely recognise them if you've seen either.

A verry different story from the usual stories,difficult to deal with and just as difficult to tell. Maybe a journey between spirituality and artificial intelligence ,between beliving unreservedly or not beliving at all,between the hope that we can always change our lives if we want and the meddling of the evil one. A very well told story,not borring at all. The cast is very solid,the bond between the actors is as strong as if they were really there. The actors story is also very well played by everyone. The main actor Cagatay Ulusoy doesn't need to be told anymore because he already takes his character to another dimension with his beautiful performance. A series absolutely to be watched especially with the head and then with the heart.

Yesterday, I finished Kubra and I was impressed as always, by the extreme performance of the actor Cagatay Ulusoy. I can reaffirm that this actor chooses his role out of a desire to convey a clear message to humanity. Each role performed by Cagatay has a clear message that urges inner circumspection. This time, Cagatay took on a role I never thought he would pull off, and in some places, he brought a few tears to my eyes. And God, how well he performed, how much dedication and pathos he put into the penciling of the Gokhan character! The crux of the first season is in the last episode... Will Gokhan continue to believe in God's power after learning the truth? Yes... I think so... Kubra conveys messages of love for one's neighbor, of the inner struggle taken to extremes by the poor, and of the chasm between the social strata from a political and financial point of view.

Kubra is the quintessence of all the spiritual values that God has passed on to us, regardless of religion, country we come from, or spiritual affiliation. It is a bundle of spiritual dogmas, which prompts you to ask yourself the question: What is the purpose of my arrival on this earth?
