My Mother's Wound is a powerful movie. Dramatic and suspenseful. It's rare that I feel so involved in a movie, I had feelings for everyone.

I haven't thought of the atrocious civil war, in civilized Europe at the end of the 20th century in a long time. I'm ashamed to say I don't even know who "won", or what was won.

How is it that we ordinary humans are capable of taking just vile action against each other. Especially to people we've known our entire lives?

Wow! Trying to find a flaw . Acting is superb. Story is fantastic. This was a very special film. I loved it. Thank you who ever wrote and directed it.

A powerful movie played by remarkable actors telling a realistic story about an 18 year old orphan and his lost family whom he seeks to find with some additional twists throughout the movie.

The movie features some beautiful sceneries and has an important message about how children have the right to live their lives well, regardless their past.

It is really hard to find flaws in this movie, the only ones I recognized were the poor CGI of the boar swimming in the swamp and the weird music scene in the end of the movie where the semi-musicians seemed so much on point in the music as if the music was dubbed. But these minor flaws did not affect my final rating.

I believe there could have been more told to the story and more emotional scenes in the movie as I've seen in other Turkish movies.

In conclusion the movie had a powerful message told with a touching story that could have been further emotionally elaborated. The story seemed a little too simple but maybe it was intended for the movie's realism. Overall a very well made movie!

I started watching this with low expectations but within a few minutes I realized that this was something special. It is surpurbly well acted, cinematography exceptional but most importantly the script is authentic and without cliche - something that is unfortunately very rare these days. A gem of a movie!

Thank God...and the humans on this planet,there is more than Erdogan,Trump,Merkel and "power",there is cinema,films that can convey stories,complex or simple,humanity at it's best and Turkey often succeeds in this through directors,actors,actresses and the stories,yes...the stories!!!Love this!
