In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious and the Most Merciful,
Why do I exist?
Why was I born?
Does my life carry a purpose, a meaning?
Help! Help me!
Help me!
Save me!
Have you ever wondered,
"Why did God create the universe, all living beings, and me?"
He created me, It must be for a purpose, He wouldn't have done it otherwise,
Save me! Help!
If the Almighty has a purpose for me, then my destiny must also have a meaning,
If my destiny has no purpose or direction,
what sets me apart from other beings?
Help!
Everything in the universe, Galaxies, countless stars, planets, black holes…
Why did He create countless things that lack the capacity to worship Him?
Help!
Why did God, unique and incomparable and in need of nothing,
say "Be!" and bring everything into being?
Why does something exist instead of nothing?
MIGHTY - ARROGANCE - GREAT - GRAVE
Do you think you are a policeman, Gokhan? Or a firefighter?
-Merve… -Why risk your life?
It's okay, Merve, See? I'm right here,
Consider this,
What if it was God who put me on a mission to save that kid
and made me His instrument?
That child might end up being a great asset to humanity,
Maybe he'll find a cure for some disease or contribute to world peace,
Or maybe he'll become the next Hitler,
It could happen in this world,
Didn't feel that way,
Gökhan…
Don't you ever think about me?
What if something happens to you?
Why are you always so reckless?
You weren't like this before,
Since you got back from the army, it feels like…
Feels like what?
It's like you're always flirting with death, Gökhan,
And you seem to be enjoying it,
Why are you like this, Gökhan?
I am like this…
Because…
-I'm… -"You are different,"
What's this, Gökhan? Who is it?
-Kübra, -Kübra?
-Uh-huh, -So you know her?
No, I don't,
She obviously knows you,
She says you're different,
-I really don't know her, -Then why is she texting you, Gökhan?
Users of this app can text each other at will,
Didn't you say this app is for talks about religion and spirituality?
-Yes, -"Yes"?
So you're using God as an excuse to flirt, huh?
-Merve, please, -Bravo,
Please,
Ask her what she wants, then,
You said you don't know her, Ask her,
-Really? -Really,
"What do you mean, ma'am?"
Merve, this is ridiculous,
I'm gonna find out who that is and what they want, okay?
I promise,
MASTER HAMİT CAR REPAIR SHOP
-Gökhan? -Yeah?
Had I saved that kid, I'd be telling everyone on the block,
No news from Serhat, Salih?
I always forget he works here until you ask about him,
I got used to it, and so should you,
Let me call him,
Eren, Ahmet,
Tidy up around here,
Gotta keep it neat and tidy, so come on,
The person you've called cannot be…
I swear, Serhat…
Good evening, Gökhan,
You too, folks, Have a good time,
Goal!
Salih, tell us what happened from the beginning,
-Yeah, -I've told you,
Ask him when he gets here,
Assalamu alaikum,
What's going on?
Did you tell them?
Don't make it a big deal,
"Gökhan the Great Hero," in golden letters!
-Enough, Let's go, -Was the car on fire?
Thank God you're okay,
-Yeah, thank God, -Tell us exactly how it happened,
-Salih never told us, -First, the game,
-Oh, come on! -Come on!
Are you okay?
We're doing great,
Ruşen, have you seen Serhat today?
No, he wasn't around,
I can't believe our striker goes missing before such an important game,
He'll be here,
-I hope so, Salih, -He'll be here soon,
-Ready? -We're ready,
-Let's go! -Come on!
-I'm going, Mıstık, Let's go, -Go on,
SEMAVİ: WHAT DO YOU MEAN, MA'AM? KÜBRA: I MEAN WHAT I SAY,
SEMAVİ: DO WE KNOW EACH OTHER?
KÜBRA: I KNOW YOU, YOU ARE DIFFERENT,
SEMAVİ: YOU'RE QUITE WEIRD TOO,
KÜBRA: IT ISN'T WEIRD TO BE UNIQUE,
SEMAVİ: I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND,
Sorry,
Where are my socks?
KÜBRA: MERVE IS THE RIGHT PERSON FOR YOU,
SEMAVİ: HOW DO YOU KNOW MERVE?
Come on, dude, Get dressed,
Are you going to play in your boxers?
-Oh, Mr, Serhat, -Yeah?
You're not at the shop and nowhere around, and you don't pick up your phone,
-So where were you? -Look, let me tell you,
Watch who can hear you, They'll think you're my beau,
-Serhat, you're slipping, Snap out of it, -I don't fucking want to,
I'm not doing it, What are you gonna do? Tell my father?
You'll be like, "Master Hamit! Your son is being naughty"?
Were you drinking?
I had a few before I got here,
Great job, Serhat, This is how you take the field?
No worries, Captain,
As you know, I score more goals when I'm drunk,
How are we gonna play without you two? Why aren't you coming?
Come on, guys!
-Pass it to me! -Salih!
-See that pass? -Here,
-Captain, here, -Gökhan!
-Captain, here, -I'm open out the back,
-Pass it, -Come here,
-Come on, -Kick it,
Goal!
-Goal! -Come help defend,
Come on, guys! They started messing around,
Bravo,
-Pass it, -Kick!
Come on!
-Damn it! -Better luck next time,
-Salih, -Salih…
Bravo, Captain,
-Passed! -Score already!
-Goal! -Bravo!
Nice!
-Come here! -Gökhan!
One, two, three, Ormancılar!
Good job!
Good job, guys!
Let's go celebrate, Raki's on me!
You're so fucking lucky,
I score all the goals, I buy all the rounds…
Guys, enjoy your meals,
Not without you, Captain!
I've a long day tomorrow,
-Boss… -Just tag along,
Come on, you can have turnip water instead,
Come on,
-Fine, I'm coming, -Here we go!
We're all going, Come on,
-Change quickly, -Go on,
Bravo! Good job!
Well done!
So, guys, one last game before the championship finals, eh?
We'll win,
Well then, Cheers!
-Cheers, -Good job, guys,
Take it easy, You're gonna choke,
I ran much faster this time, I deserve it,
That pig will be fine,
I heard you tempted death again today,
Never mind that,
You're gonna kick the bucket trying to be the hero,
I felt different today,
Different how?
I don't know,
As if there's something I must remember,
or something I should forget,
For God's sake, no philosophy, please,
-Gökhan? -Yes, brother?
-Is it because of health issues? -What do you mean by that?
You don't drink, so I wondered…
That's right, dude, Health issues,
Thankfully, it's nothing physical, The issue is his mental health,
Gökhan used to be able to drink a bottle of raki
and never break his stride,
He's laid off alcohol after his military service,
Did something bad happen?
No need for something bad to happen,
Our religion commands it,
It tells us not to let it cloud our minds,
For God's sake,
Who would have thought that Gökhan, the party animal,
would pull the brakes like this?
God works in mysterious ways,
Right,
God must have a plan, right, Serhat?
Sure,
Come here,
-What? -What did you get from that dude?
-What dude? -You know who I mean,
-Are you using again? -Oh, for the love of God,
"Who did you talk to? What did you do?" Are you my father? Lay off me,
Enjoy your meals, guys,
-Where to? -Why? We were having a nice time,
It's quite late for me,
Gotta get up early for work,
No, I said I'm paying,
It's okay,
Good evening, then,
-See you, Salih, -See you, Gökhan,
Was it something I said?
No, man, that's not it,
Serhat gets a kick out of causing tension,
Just enjoy your food, okay?
Mom?
-Nihat? -It's me,
I'm home,
-Go to bed, or you'll be stiff and sore, -Is that you, son?
It's me, Mom, I'm home,
-Come, -I must have dozed off,
Yeah,
-Come on, turn off the TV, -Yeah, I'll go to bed too,
-My back is sore, -Sleep well,
You too,
Let's not call it "lies,"
Our guest is just expressing his opinion,
What do you say to that?
Sorry, but that's what it is, This is not how you do politics,
SEMAVİ: HOW DO YOU KNOW MERVE? KÜBRA: I'M LOOKING AT MERVE RIGHT NOW,
SEMAVİ: RIGHT NOW?
KÜBRA: NOW AS BEFORE AND AFTER,
What are you talking about?
SEMAVİ: SO YOU CAN SEE MERVE?
Watch your words!
KÜBRA: ALWAYS AND EVERYWHERE,
Always and everywhere,
Okay, please calm down,
Let's not raise our voices,
KÜBRA: LISTEN TO YOUR HEART, OPEN YOUR EYES, FREE YOUR MIND,
LISTEN TO YOUR HEART, OPEN YOUR EYES, FREE YOUR MIND,
How can this be happening?
Help!
Help! Help me!
YOU ARE DIFFERENT
"You are different,"
I think it's someone we know,
Who could it be?
Maybe one of Gülcan's friends who has a hopeless crush on you,
-Come on, Merve, -"Come on" what? Am I wrong?
-They're all taken with you, -Can we drop the subject?
I'm just saying,
Or maybe it's one of the locals,
No, that can't be, They're not smart enough to pull this off,
"Not him, not her," Who is it, then?
I wish I knew,
I'm so sick and tired of this place, It feels like a cage,
I'm dragging my feet every single day,
You can quit and become a housewife when we marry,
Oh, really? Is that so?
-So I'll stay home and depend on you? -Why not?
You'll have an allowance and be a happy housewife,
Oh, wow,
Won't that do?
I don't know, Maybe,
When are you gonna talk to Master Hamit about becoming a partner?
I don't know, I'm feeling a bit uncertain,
With Serhat in between…
He said Serhat'd run the shop into the ground
and you two should be partners,
He said it once but never brought it up again,
Then you should, Gökhan,
Ask him, Find out what he's thinking,
I'll talk to him tonight,
Promise?
My father keeps asking when you're gonna ask for his blessing,
I promise,
Okay,
I gotta go,
Give me your phones,
-We were just checking something, -I need to check something too,
What are you looking for, boss?
-An app called Soultouch, -Some kind of touch?
Soultouch,
Here you go,
Carry on,
What's up, Salih?
I'm checking up on these gears,
We need them ready by tomorrow, How are we gonna make it?
-And Serhat isn't around, -Don't wait up,
When I left, he was ordering another bottle,
-I'm gonna go talk to Master Hamit, -About what?
The partnership,
Good, You've upheld the shop for years, You deserve it,
Thanks, Salih,
Speak of a good partner, and he's sure to appear,
Welcome, boss,
You're up, Feeling better?
No, Serhat hasn't come home, His phone's off, so I came here to check,,
What's he got into this time? He is the bane of my existence,
Don't worry, boss, We'll find him,
Take a seat,
-Lads, tea, -No, thanks,
Gotta visit the clinic, See you,
-Someone could accompany you, -No need,
You could've told him you wanted to talk,
He has enough on his plate right now, Another time,
Ahmet?
Yes, boss?
-Go see if Serhat is at the coffeehouse, -Yes, boss,
I'm here to see Gökhan Şahinoğlu,
Yes, sir, That's me,
Hello,
I'm Fırat's father, My name is Haluk,
I came here to thank you,
Welcome, Mr, Haluk, Please come in,
-How is Fırat doing? Is he well? -He's fine, and it's all thanks to you,
Thank God,
And the gentleman in the front seat?
He was our driver,
My condolences,
Thank you,
I… I don't know how to express my gratitude to you,
-If not for you… -Mr, Haluk, don't mention it,
-Anyone would have done the same thing, -No, They wouldn't,
And apparently they didn't, They just stood there and watched,
So if you hadn't appeared just in time…
Fırat was meant to live a long life, Let's see it that way,
He has Behcet's disease,
The treatment isn't working,
He's getting worse every day,
-May God help him, -I'd like to…
-That's not necessary, Mr, Haluk, -No, I… Thank you once again,
-God bless you, -May He bless us all,
God bless you,
KÜBRA: WRONG DIAGNOSIS!
KÜBRA: THE TESTS WERE WRONG!
Mr, Haluk!
Did you take Fırat to another doctor?
No, Why?
I don't know, Could the tests be wrong?
Our doctor is the best in the country in this field,
Oh, I don't doubt that,
Still, a second opinion could be useful…
God bless you,
Thank you,
Trying to mess with my head?
DELETE APP
THIS APP WILL BE DELETED, ARE YOU SURE?
What's up with you? Is something wrong?
-I'm way too full of myself, Salih, -Yeah?
I keep doing foolish things,
Foolish,
Gökhan? Where are you going?
-We have a ton of work, Gökhan! -I'll be back later,
They all bail on me,
-So it's time to leave, eh? -Yeah,
Only 98 days left,
Welcome back,
He only has a week left,
Yeah, After that, I leave,
-What are your plans? -I'm gonna get married, get a job,
Duck!
SALİH: SOMEONE SAW SERHAT AT KÜLHAN,
Where'd you score this pot?
Serhat!
Fuck! It's my brother,
-Give me that, -How did he find us?
Serhat!
Why, Mr, Gökhan!
-Do you want to kill your father? -Yes, but only psychologically,
Killing the father is crucial,
Yours has already died, and you have peace of mind,
-Let's go home, -Hard pass,
I'll be here for a few more days,
Tell your Master Hamit not to worry about me,
Serhat, you'll catch lice here, You'll get sick,
-Let's go, -Not coming,
-Serhat, get up, -Leave me alone,
-Come on, -Let go of me,
-Come on, get up, -Let go of me! Leave me be!
I need to lie low for a while,
Where have you been, Mom?
Where do you think?
I went to Feride's,
What's up?
Gülcan isn't home either, I called, but her phone is off,
Any idea where she is?
She must be off visiting a friend,
Why are you doing this?
Why am I doing what, son?
We barely pulled her back together and got her up on her feet,
She's home,
Welcome home, Gülcan,
-Where have you been? -At a friend's,
-I called, Your phone was off, -Ran out of power, Anyway, I'm home now,
It's late, You didn't let us know,
Told you she'd be with a friend, and you needn't worry,
But…
Never mind,
-I'm going to the workshop, -Okay,
I got some groceries in the kitchen,
She must be hungry, Make her some food, okay?
Don't wait up, I'll be late,
Come here,
My sweet mother,
Don't be too late, Go now,
-God be with you, -Okay, See you,
-Ahmet! -Yes, boss?
-Could you make some coffee? -Will do,
KÜBRA: ALWAYS AND EVERYWHERE
How?
NEITHER FORTUNE NOR MISFORTUNE CAN BE AVOIDED
You asshole!
You fucked up the car!
You call this driving?
Watch your mouth!
"With Him are the keys of the unseen,"
"No one knows them except Him,"
Anyone who claims to receive information from the great beyond
is committing a grave sin,
"Neither fortune nor misfortune can be avoided,"
received seconds before the crash,
-I've seen it, heard it, -No, no,
The "misfortune" you mention is one thing, the "misfortune" in Qur'an another,
In the Qur'an,
it signifies events destined to occur at their appointed time,
So what you're telling me
is either coincidental, or it's done by means of technology,
Perhaps this person…
They saw the car through a security camera or CCTV
and surmised the crash,
And they sent you a message just to mess with you,
Okay then, Hodja,
How about the time I heard on TV the same message that I received in text?
-How is that a coincidence? -That's "perceptual selectivity,"
It's a notion used in psychology,
How should I put it? Now…
You know, there's a certain car I wanna buy,
Now, when I'm out, I see that exact model everywhere,
Did their sales increase?
Same number of cars, right? But now it's everywhere, Why?
Because I'm fixated on it, My mind spots it among all the other cars,
That's it,
A trick of the mind,
Okay, Hodja,
-Thank you for your time, -Don't mention it,
-Come to me whenever you want, -Thanks, I appreciate that,
So tell me, what have you decided?
Like you suggested, I'll stop talking to them,
That is for the best,
-It's up to you, but… -No, you're right,
I won't,
May God look after you,
Godspeed,
-Cover them so they don't get wet, -Okay, boss,
Let's go in,
Come, come,
Come,
-Yes, there he is, -Gökhan!
Fırat, my man!
-Come here, How are you? -I'm okay,
Welcome, Mr, Haluk,
What are you doing?
-Please don't, -Come here,
May God bless you,
-May He turn what you touch to gold, -What happened?
When you said what you said, I got a nagging feeling,
We consulted another doctor, The diagnosis was wrong, It's Mediterranean fever,
Had we kept up the initial treatment, he could have died,
You're such a blessed man,
You saved my son twice,
God bless you,
Turns out you were right!
I was right,
SEMAVİ: WHERE ARE YOU?
KÜBRA: ALWAYS AND EVERYWHERE
SEMAVİ: WHO ARE YOU?
KÜBRA: THE PATH ASSUMES THE FORM OF TIME
DARKNESS IS A PUNISHMENT FOR THE EYE, LISTEN TO YOUR HEART
SEMAVİ: I AM LISTENING TO MY HEART, SHOW YOURSELF
Show yourself,
Come on!
Come on,
NIGHT LIGHTS CANNOT DISPERSE THE DARKNESS
REAL DARKNESS IS WITHIN LIGHT, REAL LIGHT IS IN THE DARKNESS,
LISTEN TO THE DARKNESS, YOU'LL HEAR MY VOICE,
