Le Festival des troubadours

It is great that story is not in Isranbul but in Anatolia expressing a real cultural thema this timeunlike previous netflix Turkish movies. I find the intention of the movie good and really wanted to enjoy it. However there is a big lack of story telling and it was boring from the beginning to the end. It is kind of a road movie but you hardly get to know places they been to or peaple they met. Characters are all superficial. Kivanç and Settar are both great actors and their skills make the movie watchable, otherwise story was told in a boring way with serious issues on editing. I liked the cinematography though.

In Netflix's coercive universe of puzzling, superficial and fast-paced, mostly duplicate movies and TV shows, this movie stands elsewhere. This cinematic language may seem a bit challenging for someone who is used to today's illusion of speed, but someone who leaves himself to that flow can find the courage to face many emotions he has suppressed. One of the strongest aspects of the film is that it is adapted from Kemal Varol's novel of the same name. In particular, a phrase that became the motto of the film and was constantly shared on social media was quite interesting: "Daddy (papa) is an unfinished word." Indeed, "pa" is one of the first syllables that babies say, when they repeat that syllable repeatedly, "papa" comes out, as if they are trying to say a word that starts with "pa".

A little bit melancolic but speed of the movie was like meditation. Also Congrats for Kivanc Tatlitug to his performance.

A very touching story of a lost son & father relationship. Connecting childhood memories while trying to walk over a broken relationship bridge between the past and today, knowing there is not much time left to re-build. Cinematography and acting is five Stars. For whom have lived in Anatolia for some time, or from this land, or traveled there and are familiar with this culture will undoubtedly enjoy the music, scenery, and story more than many of us. Congratulations on bringing us something that is different, not revealing what was the real story behind why the father left his son behind and leave it to our imagination, Everyone can guess and complete their own story in the blanks.

Like all Ozcan Alper films, this is a quiet, reflective film that deviates from the mainstream. Don't expect fuss or thrills. Immerse yourself in a pensive journey with Yusuf and Heves Ali masterfully acted by kivanc tatlitug and settar tanriogen and let the tears flow. The cinematography is also stunning and the folk music is beautiful. The film's theme is summarised towards the end ... it is not always about happy endings or problem resolutions ... even when time is running out, it is often difficult to open up and resolve deep rooted relationship issues and overcome deep seated hurt. A beautiful film that should be watched.

I don't see any point in this movie . Even a twelve year old could've come up with this story . There is no story . If you like meaningless road trips this movie is for you .complete waste of time . I fall asleep during the movie . I wish I never saw this movie or I slept thru the all movie .Kivanc has great reputation he just needs to stop accepting extremely cheap projects like this pathetic scenario . This movie leaves you hanging as if you never invested time to find out what's going to happen .cheap movie cheap ending cheap everything .there is just a nice car and some view . 5.9 overal rating is too much for this .
