Why watch this film?
Using strong inspiration from the classic 'Before Sunrise' by Richard Linklater, the Turkish Netflix exclusive movie 'Yarina Tek Bilet' is one of those tear-jerking, heartwarming, and dreamy romances. Directed by Ozan Açiktan (of the acclaimed 'Annemin Yarasi') and written by Faruk Ozerten (of the mystery 'Silsile'), the feature film focuses on the story of two strangers who meet during a train journey between Ankara and Izmir. From there, 'Yarina Tek Bilet' plays with the possibilities of these meetings--and mismeetings, of course--and shows how relationships can arise "out of nowhere". It should be noted, however, that this is a movie like the aforementioned 'Before Sunrise', almost entirely based on the script with deep dialogue and some good conversations.

Last Summer
"Last Summer" is a Turkish drama about adolescence and the love stories of this chaotic and turbulent period. A sensitive romance and a beautiful, contained, relatable and exciting story. The movie seems tailor-made for those who like dramas about maturity, and talks about the blossoming of love, first experiences and the awakening of adolescence to deal and relate with the world. A gem that will probably go unnoticed due to being an independent and international film, but which is undoubtedly a sure recommendation that is worth it. A beautiful and honest movie about the experience of adolescence, without romanticizations and exaggerations.
Romance
Licença para Enlouquecer
When the lives of friends Sara, Lia and Leia turn into chaos of planetary proportions, they have to share a tiny apartment in São Paulo and almost go crazy. Who never? But the three are enough. They become accomplices to fulfill an indecent and irrefutable proposal: crossing the country to “animate” a secret party on the paradisiacal beach of Maragogi, in Alagoas. An absurdly unexpected adventure, with twists, passions, the strength of friendship and a surprise that will transform their destinies.
How to Date Billy Walsh
There's a reason why, despite being so repetitive, teen romantic comedies like Clueless work so well: we've all been there, somehow. The plot of How to Date Billy Walsh is set in Britain, but follows the same formula as many other similar proposals from the United States: a guy, Archie, has been friends with Amelia since childhood, but secretly loves her. However, when he finally gathers the courage to confess, she falls for Billie Walsh, a handsome and athletic exchange student. The story is predictable and, except for a Netflix Sex Education-like layer of paint, there's not much new. However, it's a good contender for a Gen Z classic.
The Taste of Things
From Vietnamese-French director Anh Hung Tran (The Scent of Green Papaya) and starring the legendary Juliette Binoche and Benoît Magimel, The Taste of Things was France's selection for the 2024 Oscars, although it was not nominated. Set in 1889 and based on the character of Dodin-Bouffant created by Marcel Rouff, the story follows a chef (Magimel) enchanted by his cook (Binoche), for whom he feels not only culinary admiration, but genuine love. However, she is not ready to take the step into marriage and is happy and content with the relationship they have. Sensual in its visuality and narrative, it is a powerful story of love and about love, which, while not entirely breaking free from conventions, is elevated by the formidable talent of its protagonists.
Me Before You
Young and quirky Louisa "Lou" Clark moves from one job to the next to help her family make ends meet. Her cheerful attitude is put to the test when she becomes a caregiver for Will Traynor, a wealthy young banker left paralyzed from an accident two years earlier. Will's cynical outlook starts to change when Louisa shows him that life is worth living. As their bond deepens, their lives and hearts change in ways neither one could have imagined.
