Une famille en vrille

Its different, its refreshing. Its a rollercoaster of emotions. The story flows and you just keep watching bc you're curious how the dots are going to connect. Its about a family with secrets, mental health issues, some lonely, misunderstood, but most of all interesting. I actually loved the absurdity. Especially the scenes with Haluk Bilginer was amazing, he cracked me up. BRILLIANT acting (even the performance of little girl Ece), directing, production, music, casting. And the last episode is the best, it has some genius overlaps between conversations from one scene to another. Bravo!

I and my wife really enjoyed this series. The subject is different than what we see Turkish series and acting is perfect. Onur Saylak is a great director. I recommend it to anybody.

This series is definitely not meant for the mainstream. It is more an arthouse-style series. If you watched other Turkish Netflix series, this is comparable with Ethos / Bir Baskadir. Unique characters, unique storytelling, unique work. It is slow but still moves forward. It has an amazing soundtrack and the DOP also made a good job, the visuals are incredible. Hakan Günday is known for his left political opinion and you can find many hidden messages and criticism regarding the government in this series. But the criticism is also going beyond the Turkish border - it is rather a global / social criticism. Everyone can feel free to be offended.

Story is well written, actors are good too. It was a good description of today's Turkey except economic conditions. Wife was too annoying and by that you can understand that she acted very well. Father figure also a mess. I wonder if there will be a season 2.

Hakan Gunday is a great writer/screenwriter. Onur Saylak is a great director. In addition to these, a great cast selection and very good songs set the series apart. Netflix Turkey has set the bar very high. I hope such projects continue.
