Is it some kind of music DVD? It's not available yet in the UK, so I don't know what I'll think of it.. but I see Sezen Aksu, so it must be nice

No it's a film which doesn't play in the 'commercial' cinemas, but more in the cultured ones. I haven't seen it yet, but I have the filmposter I stole it from the culture-classroom at school
It's not available on DVD yet in Holland (are you in UK now?), but it's in the cinemas now. After that, I think it will be available in dvd-shops as well.

Hi Mara
Sorry for late reply
Yes, I saw it in February at FEST – Belgrade Film Festival and I was fascinated. My friends who went with me were also impressed – it was their first meeting with Turkish culture. Actually, I think that it is not enough seeing it only once. I'm waiting impatiently for DVD so I could enjoy it again and again.

It was shown on TV a few months ago, but at first I didn't know it was made by Fatih Akın.
The sentence they use in the introduction is so true. If you want to know a culture or the country, listen to its music.

here it was also during a film festival : Transilvanian Film Festival ...
and this film impressed many people. For example, while going out from the cinema hall i heared next to me some guys talking ( they were around 25-30 years old )
one was saying to the other : can u realize i've been listening to musik all my life and i've never heared before of those trkish singers?? and they are here at only 1000 km away 
< this are the moments when i start feeling smart >

Hehe ok. Do you know Apeldoorn? It has a cinema called 'De Gigant'. They play it. It's kind of the cultural cinema of the city, so I expect other cities to play it as well in their cult-places. |
