Rosie D. @Rosieeeee Apr 14 A stunning portrait of sisterhood and the fight for freedom. It hits the same emotional beats as Shawshank, proving that the female spirit belongs to the world at large, not within four walls. The finale is perhaps a touch too optimistic, but after everything they went through, maybe that’s exactly what we needed. Truly moving See more addison g @RT75165757 01/07/2025 A movie I think all women should watch. It was beautifully done and you feel a genuine connection to these girls very early on the movie. Love it. See more Gaylord R @RT95327010 12/14/2024 It's difficult to discern whether the director wanted us to take sides. I didn't. For the longest time of history marriages were arranged, it made sense economically, genetically, politically. Then "love" made its appearance, seemingly the cure-all. Fact is that love marriages break down more often than arranged ones. One can sympathize with the girls who want to escape their uncle-imposed prison and live a life of their own. But will they be happier? A great film, magnificently filmed and acted, with plenty to think about. See more Sarah G @RT98315220 03/20/2024 Sublime filmmaking. Beautifully shot. See more isla s @RT89656869 09/03/2022 This is another sobering world cinema film. It portrays a number of close teenage sisters who find themselves heavily criticised in a conservative country, following a neighbour reporting them cavorting on a beach with boys. Their 'cared for' by guardians after having been orphaned and they find their freedoms become more and more restricted as they age. This is a film about the power of friendship and sibling relationships - it covers some important topics and it highlights the misogny or lack of freedom in such places. It makes you think about some things we have in western society which are perhaps taken for granted. I felt the women did well in playing their parts, the teenagers were quite convincing in their roles. It was nice to see how the sisters managed to get around the restrictions at times and frustrating when they were reprimanded. I thought it did well at portraying a group of young women trying to be independent and make the most of their lives, while they could, even though they felt it was sure not to last. There's something uplifting about it, despite the clearly sad tone. This is a good film I'd recommend to fans of world cinema. its in Turkish with English subtitles. See more thiago s @Thiagostone 08/21/2022 Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, o filme mostra 5 irmãs que passam por coisas da vida na Turquia, como ir a um estádio e outras coisas, depois uma das 5 irmãs morreu e não teve nada de interessante dono resto filme. Por isso eu não recomendo esse filme. See more Read all reviews
