9/10

First of all, its an absolute crime that this movies rating is anything but 80+. This is genuinely the saddest and most depressing movie ive ever seen. Really makes you think about life and shakes your view of death with punch after punch, but still lending a little hand at the end of the movie just to make you feel a bit better, emphasizing that theres always a bit of hope. Still after all this manages to be a great piece of art even getting rewarded in Turkey. I believe it to be one of the best turkish movies if not top 5. An unexpectedly dark and sad storyline executed impressively good.
