The biggest success of this Turkish movie, a big hit thanks to its popular stars, is that it is the sole film ever made on one of the darkest and least openly discussed era of Turkish history. The mandatory "super tax" imposed in 1940s on everyone, but most exercised on the non-Muslims was publicly made known to the Turkish people through the eye of a female director, experienced in making documentaries for the Turkish state TV.
The dialogues, the acting and some of the landscapes are truly amazing, but the sound department fails.
With its ups and downs, this movie will still be one of the best and the most controversial Turkish movie in 1999.
