In fact, although the Evrenists were thought to be against religious communities in the 90s, they gave the greatest support. In fact, no religious community dormitory was inspected like in the film. If there had been, the nationalists would have used it as material and there would have been a lot of news. In addition, it can be said that the part where secularists attack the dormitories creates its own reality.
In conclusion, I think the film reflects the viewpoint of the Evrenists very well, they tried to stay in the middle by saying a little from them and a little from them.
Even this news provides information about the situation. Shorturl at / 3ytSl.

Dormitory
The film radiates corners, longing and monochromatic volumes. It is a heart where the blooming childhood enters in the forest of demarcations. The picturesque of black and white creates an enigmatic frame of emotions. It fleshes the character into the nuances of humanity of the bygone era and question about it. Promising frames, detailed costumes, classic editing, layered actors. The child Ahmets vulnerability, innocence and understanding goes through the tones of revolution. The film showcases an individual revelation of Godhood, companionship, parental relationships and openings of love.
If you only knew how sorry I feel for our children who experienced this and similar things. Unfortunately, things like this can still happen. Children who are sent to such dormitories for a purpose without even consulting their children may face many psychological problems throughout their lives. They always filter the events they experience through a religious filter and forget who they are. They lose their own character because they constantly shape their perspectives according to the moral values imposed on them. As someone who has many friends around him, like our main character Ahmet, and who has talked to people who have experienced such things many times, I was amazed. The director touched on the sensitive points so correctly that I felt like I had experienced these things. An incredible expression, so emotional. In my opinion, every viewer can find something from themselves in this movie... Congrats all the actors, especially precious director Nehir Tuna.
I really loved this film-visually splendid and carried by outstanding performances. It subtly explores the grip of religious brotherhoods, operating in the shadow of Atatürk's legacy. With meticulous direction and a sensitive narrative, Yurt reveals an unfamiliar Turkey (for me) far from the cosmopolitan image of Istanbul that defines the country for most of people.,
The film is caught between tradition and secularism. We follow the inner turmoil of a young man navigating between these two opposing worlds, torn between the weight of his father's expectations and his desire to live freely, like any other teenager-but also those who don't have the privilege of existing between the two. Very touching and immersive, the film offers a poignant reflection on the search for freedom in a country undergoing profound transformation. A striking and singular work.

When I first saw the trailer, I was genuinely excited and eagerly looking forward to watching it. There was something about the atmosphere and the visuals that instantly caught my attention and stayed with me. Last night, I finally had the chance to see it-and I absolutely loved it. It exceeded all my expectations and left a lasting impression. Both in terms of storytelling and cinematography, it was one of the most powerful, visually stunning, and emotionally captivating films I've seen in a long time. Every frame felt intentional, every moment meaningful. I can't recommend it enough-truly a must-watch.
