✦Review
7.0/10★★★★☆ 7.0**My Problem is Bigger Than the World**, set in the heart of a neighborhood of Istanbul, tells in a striking way how traditional values conflict with modern pressures. While the film deeply observes the ordinary details of daily life, it also skillfully reveals the resistance of the neighborhood's social structure to change. Orhan's inner conflict is reflected to the audience through his voice tones and body language; Apo's imprisonment, Ipek's entrustment to his care, and the hidden emotions that arise during this secret keep the characters' complex relationships alive. Rahmi Bey's factory plan and Engin and İpek's relationship add a new dimension to the social dynamics of the neighborhood. While the acting successfully draws the thin boundaries between Orhan and İpek, scene transitions and dialogue flow do not compromise on realism. In cinematography, the use of natural light and location shooting add realism to the atmosphere of the film. The sound design integrates with neighborhood sounds, drawing the audience directly into the story. While the film offers the audience an emotional journey, it presents the transformation experienced by the characters in an eye-catching visual texture.
