Storyline
Born into a poor family, witnessed the tragedy of his mother and his baby sister getting killed by his father in front of his eyes, a serious car accident, which he was first pronounced dead that left him partially deaf and gave him gestural and speaking difficulties, which later became part and parcel of his eccentric personality, a tumultuous relationship with a movie actress and singer who is 21 years older than him. Muslum found his redemption in music from the initial trauma that lingered over his musical and personal life as "internalizing the grief. He rose through his ashes of shattered dreams like a phoenix. He walked in darkness, sang songs filled with sorrow which stirred people's souls and created a cult following.

Although great performance of Esen, film has a weak story. Sudden pass from his teenager years to adult was very disappointing. Some parts of the film is rather than a film story it seems like documentary or vice versa . Also a paragraph for the young actor Sahin Kendirci (young Muslum). I congratulate him from heart for his great performance which made us cry. Zerin Tekindor was perfect in the role of Muhterem Nur.
As a result, rather than story great performances saves the film being a bad one
