Furkan Palali Ali Sürmeli Altan Akisik Altan Gördüm Emin Olcay Firat Tanis

Plot

Based on a real life story of sufi dervish Somuncu Baba, who lived in Aksaray in Turkey.

Sinekatalog’s take

A devotional historical drama about the Sufi saint Somuncu Baba, in which faith, humility and service are the main themes. It plays reverently and leans on sincerity more than cinematic daring. Viewers interested in Anatolian spiritual heritage are its natural audience.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
