Sinekatalog’s take
A drama about a wife fighting to hold her family together after being betrayed, within her father-in-law's household. It looks at endurance and domestic pressure. A sober, humane choice for admirers of Turkish social realism.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
