Plot

The movie, spanning a time from the 1940s to the 1970s, features a dramatic as well as bright and charged story.

After becoming orphan at an early age, Ali (starring Kenan İmirzalıoğlu) immigrates to Turkey from Bulgaria with his oil wrestler grandfather Süleyman. Settled at Eyüp in İstanbul, he is raised by his grandfather as a brave and equalitarian individual.[1][2]

During his teen years in the 1950s, Ali falls in love with Münire (starring Tuğçe Kazaz), the daughter of an outdoor cinema owner. Ali abducts Münire as her parents does not allow their marriage. From then on, Ali spends a life together with the woman he loves, moving from town to town at railway stations. In the meantime, the couple welcome a son they name Mustafa. Ali, nicknamed now "the Socialist", earns a living by his typewriting and accounting knowledge. He is, however, sacked by plotting towners because of his intolerant character against injustice and discrimination. Meanwhile, Mustafa is growing and pursues his own life stories.[1][2]

gollark: Personally, I also don't really trust "cloud" stuff with all my datas.
gollark: Generally it's actually not cheaper to use "cloud" stuff if you plan to use it *constantly*.
gollark: The biggest issue is that I would need to cross-compile everything to ARM.
gollark: My server stuff probably *could* mostly run off a raspberry pi, but those have downsides and when I occasionally do want to do heavy computing it would be VERY IRRITATING.
gollark: I'm sure streaming services would *never* randomly pull content.
