Finally,after different other awards in Cannes,Sewilla appreciated in Germany .I saw the film yesterday with 9 other people in the movies,what a crowd!
All what I can say is that film is perfectly made and difficult for average cinemagoer,shows sensible issues together with the beauty of Turkish Black Sea coastline and Istanbul for a while.
My first thought was ¨will the film be shown in Turkey¨?
 or has it already been?
