Perhaps a heavy and suffocating theme; but deeply effective: Condemned to exile for success
The screenplay was fantastic. The acts were brilliant, facial expressions and portrayal of emotions were fascinating. Although the theme of the movie is going to take your nerves down and make you feel deeply desperate and sad over the course of the film, but it's a great movie which achieves what it wants to present. It's not a simple story of an unfortunate incident. It's also a glimpse of the life of a generation; A part of leaving behind a huge aspect of life, the very dear memories of growing up in a country and immigrating with uncertainty, leaving behind a child! Saying goodbye to it! Despite expressing that they will return in 3-4 years, the observer can sense their uncertainty. The movie begins with scenes of sucking air out of vacuum compressed bags; sucking out air, sucking out life, suffocation of a baby ... They can't change their minds, they must go forward. It's how they've been always told; it's how the environment expects them to be so that they can be considered successful. Even the suffocation of air out of what constitutes their identities shouldn't be able to stop them of moving forward in that direction. Leave it behind my dear, leave it behind and go on living with that dark memory forever! This was more than just an incident; this was the story of us: Condemned to exile for success ...
