Mahir Ogretmen was sent to teach in a remote area in the mountain somewhere in Turkey [in the 60's] but there was no school. He however eventually decided to stay and even managed to get the money to build a school for the villagers. He got to know the village Chief, his family and the people there. The noblest thing Mahir did was to teach Aziz, the disabled child of the chief who had been an outcast all the while. His determination and honesty to provide education had touched the hearts of the people and he had formed a special bond with the villagers.
A beautiful movie that took me to the scenic countryside of Turkey as well as to observe the culture and customs of the people there. And there are a few subplots that deal with the theme of love and humanity, with some acts which are comedic and at times, hilarious. Mahir had made a miracle happen, which gives the movie its title in Turkish, and you have to wait right until the end to see how the whole thing ends. Be ready with your box of tissue as you will shed some tears especially as the movie is about to conclude.
With no hesitation, I am giving the movie a 10-star rating. 🌟
