In the last few days, everyone is talking about that. 7. Koğuştaki Mucize is the latest on Netflix. Directed by Mehmet Ada Öztekin, this Turkish film is an adaptation of the South Korean film Miracle In Cell No,7 . A touching story but also very moving -most of the spectators having shed a few tears-. 7. Koğuştaki Mucize, a drama about the life of 7-year-old Ova and her mentally disabled dad Mehmet. Living with Mehmet's grandmother, the small family leads a peaceful life in the hills, until one day an incident destroys everything in its path.
An unshakable bond
A very good student, Ova shares a very strong bond with what remains of her family, especially her father, nicknamed Memo. Despite his disability, this dad a little different from the others would be ready to get the moon for love for his daughter. When the daughter of the martial law commander (and Ova's classmate) dies, Memo is accused and immediately sentenced to death. Despite her young age, little Ova will lead a fierce fight to exonerate her father. In this Turkish feature film, director Ada Öztekin was keen to highlight a subject often despised: mental disability. Throughout the film, it is with great emotion that he shows us that despite their difference, these people do not deserve the relentlessness and mockery they arouse. Often endowed with a much purer and loving heart, they are an integral part of society and deserve to be much more highlighted. 
In 7. Koğuştaki Mucize, it is also a question of justice -or rather injustice-. Denouncing the Turkish judicial system, Ada Öztekin is not afraid to fit into the mold of the cliché. Considered "too much" by some, this feature film offers us despite this breathtaking wide shots. Perhaps it is the beauty of the plans and landscapes that would bring tears to our eyes, all things considered.
A surprising twist
Cell 7. Far from his daughter and grandmother, Mehmet is carving out a place for himself among his fellow inmates. The director then tells us about the important place of religion in the daily life of Turks. We discover here, as we go along, what earned all these men the confinement, creating a certain link between the detainees and the spectator. It is by revealing personal information about these characters, at first sight detestable, that Ada Öztekin gives us the opportunity to attach ourselves to them. 
Like Parasite who has also been much talked about, 7. Koğuştaki Mucize is a perfect illustration of the strength of love and family bonds. Ready for each other, Mehmet and Ova prove to us that we must never give up. Despite obstacles that can deviate or block the way, you must always keep your goal in sight. Giving up is not an option, let alone a solution. And as the saying goes:
"When we want, we can!"
Of the whole film, if there was only one principle to remember, it would be that of solidarity. Unity is strength, it is well known, and it is in this drama that the director has made a point of honor. Too often set aside by the hero when difficulties arise at the beginning of the film, it is not without importance for the outcome of the story. Ada Öztekin perfectly illustrates this famous solidarity and offers us a poignant film. If you want to be moved to tears during this time of confinement, 7. Koğuştaki Mucize is available on Netflix. (Everyone shed a tear, you won't have to hide.)
