This is my favorite Turkish film. it was made in the 1970s, and the stars of the film are Turkan Saray and Kadir inanir. it's a drama, and it's about love.

i want to talk about the story because if you don't know the story you can't understand the message at the end of the film. Kadir comes from istanbul to Asya's (Turkan) village, and they love each other. Then, they get married and have a baby, whose name is Samet. By the way, Kadir is a lorry driver and always goes to other cities. One day, he goes and doesn't come to his home again. Asya gets so upset and escapes from the village. She meets another man, ilyas, he is interested in her and her son. They start to live together. One day, ilyas finds a man. it is Kadir and he has had an accident. They treat him. Asya is very surprised because she still loves him. At the end of the film, Kadir wants her to come with him. However, she says 'Love is a labor, ilyas looked after my child. Samet calls him father. He is very nice to us. You cheated me. i can't come with you.' She goes home with ilyas and Samet but she still loves him.

i love this film because of the message at the end of the film. i think that it's important to every culture in the World because love is an international feeling. This is a Turkish language film, and it is my favorite film because love is explained very well.

'Selvi Boylum' means 'He is very tall like a tree' and 'Al yazmalim' means 'my wife with the red scarf'.
