I've discovered this movie through a friend of mine who highly recommended it. After watching it, I HAD to recommend it further to other people, since this is a movie that WILL have an impact on you.
I haven't seen the 2013 Korean movie, but I might, because this is such an interesting and heartbreaking story. And since it's been adapted from real life events, it's even more heartbreaking.
But getting back to Yedinci Kogustaki Mucize. The writers, Özge Efendioglu and Kubilay Tat done an amazing job, and the director, Mehmet Ada Öztekin, put the story perfectly on the screen with the help of Aras Bulut Iynemli, who has played his role perfectly. So yeah, writing/script, directing and the acting of Aras Bulut Iynemli, Ilker Aksum, Mesut Akusta, Yildiray Sahinler, Deniz Celiloglu and Sarp Akkaya made this into a masterpiece of emotional art. I was not impressed by the rest of the actors, but the ones I mentioned really deserve many applause. The pace is perfect and you cannot be bored, not even for a second, since everything is so well done that the two hours pass by without realizing, only by the weight it puts on your soul and how much you can take at an emotional level.
Besides the emotional value, it also has a religious and mystical value that ads up to the overall experience, an experience that will probably leave a mark on you. It gives us the opportunity to understand things better, and from other perspectives. You have the perspective of the child, the father, the grandmother, the teacher, the community, the political, the law, the criminal, the religious, the mystical, the way they differ and the way they connect to a point of human being as a whole, with all its imperfections.
In conclusion, if you want to experience the true magic of cinematic art, this is your chance.
