Featured reviews
I liked the movie very much. The incident is told very realistically and very naturally. There is a traumatic event in the movie. The characters constantly blame each other, but all characters are innocent. The movie seems to say that these are the conditions and they cannot be prevented. I was just disturbed by some of the child actors' dialogues. Because they were amateurs, it didn't sit well in their mouths. The kids were very grinning next to the professional players. It was a perfect festival movie. I congratulate the entire team who contributed.
It's so beautiful, sensational, genuine, simple and deep. It tackles an interesting important subject and implies a very powerful message and sheds light on a sad depressing reality. It's nicely shot, written and acted as well.
First of all, I would like to say that the script is particularly good and very strong. The acting is also above standard and very good. As the movie progresses, we see this. Actually nobody is clean. Everyone has a negative impact on the development of the story. I was especially mesmerized by the successful acting of the child actor. The only flaw is that the visuals could have been better. The fact that it was a low-budget movie affected the money allocated to cinematography. Directing indoors is difficult. But the director successfully overcame this challenge. If you want to watch a different movie, this movie will be a perfect alternative for you.
A thorough portrayal of people of Turkey conveyed by the illness of a primary school student. The plot is well written down to the smallest details such as the cigarette brand of the state teacher. Dialogues and actions fit into the world and reflect the selfishness and irresponsibleness of people clearly.
8/10, must watch for anyone interested in Turkey.

Such a simple and perfect movie.
Cinema should not be all about spending a fortune on GDI and stars.
A simple, good scenario, realistic characters and dialogs. It will take you to the atmosphere. You will feel cold and worried. It is telling the real, everyday people with good and bad inside them.

- TriviaThe kids in the movie were all locals of Van.
- GoofsThe movie's plot is based on the inability to transport a very sick child to a hospital, during a snowstorm, because of impassable roads. Yet, at 14 min. 21 sec., you can clearly hear a helicopter hovering nearby... which would have allowed for an immediate solution to the problem.
