Sinekatalog’s take
A poor welder and a salon manicurist fall in love until a spoiled rich man's obsession threatens them. Metin Erksan stages the class conflict inside a classic Turkish melodrama. Emotional and sharp about social divides; recommended for fans of Yeşilçam romantic tragedies.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
