I don't really know why this movie is so underrated.
It is, as i know, the first feature film of the director. And the struggle to choose between your family and society is real. Not only in Turkish families, not in every family but in some for sure. Murder because of honer still exists. Murder because of different pictures of society still exists. And also it's a movie. I think it is really realistic but if you don't remind yourself of every Hollywood romance film existing. Yeah very realistic stuff..
I also don't get in what way this is racist. It is a story of a family not every family. This movie is a great example of using a different language than English or German and the cast is actually Turkish. It celebrates diversity in movies.
There are many many other films which portray Turkish people in a more ghetto and criminal style but this film is about relationships and the problem of honor and empowerment in a society.
The camera-work is beautiful. You feel like being sucked in that isolated world of the family. The dialog is beautiful written.
I just love that film and i would recommend watching it.
