Thought out the film we are shown many different expression of the characters that gave off a feel of realism. The scene with the bathroom really shows the cultural and economic differences between Germany and Turkey. The family believed that Turkey was their true home but after spend a good portion of time in Germany and adapting to its cultural. When they returned to Turkey and saw their home again. The disappointing realization of how different Germany is compare to Turkey causing they to expression a small cultural identity crisis but Fatma near the end of film told her family of how Hüseyin maybe German on paper but if you were take him to the village the people there will vouch for him as a true Turk. That line helps describe her children cultural identity. I picked this scene of Hüseyin because it sums up the family’s expression thought out the film.
