Year 1977, a September morning in Ankara… Yilmaz tries to rush his pregnant wife Neriman to the hospital and he crushes into Omer’s car. This accident causes Omer’s pregnant wife Inci, who was in the back seat, to have a pre-term labor. The babies are born on the same day. They see each other for the first time… This accident is the threshold of the coincidences that bring Ozgur and Deniz together. They come across each other in Ankara several times during their childhood and youth. Each intersection has a butterfly effect, resulting in drastic changes in their lives. They become each other’s puppy love or their first heartbreak… But beyond this, each confluence changes their route of life. Not only theirs, but also their families’… They sometimes cause disasters, sometimes miracles. However, they can never be together. Whatever it is that brings them together…
User Reviews: I watched the movie “Ask Tesadüfleri Sever” – “Love Likes Coincidences” tonight the 11th of February 2011, and loved it by all means… In a movie, if you don’t believe in a few coincidences, it is one thing, but in this movie, the story telling is a musical coincidences symphony in which two parallel lives, a love and the people circling around are successfully portrayed. Ömer Faruk Sorak is a powerful director who makes the spectator find a place for him/herself a place in the story. He just finds the tempo and lets the river flow… Mehmet Günsür & Belçim Bilgin as the two main characters just fit in too… Especially Mehmet Günsür with his performance and charisma gives the movie the energy it needs. I’d like to congratulate Gökçe Doruk Erten as the director of casting too.. Since the movie covers a story of two people from their ages 7-10 up to end of 20′s it is actually difficult to cast a continuum and that was done superb. In many successful American movies you sometimes get shocked by the casting of characters by different actors in such a long and evoluting piece of time.
Also an Oscar goes to Ipek Sorak who has created a perfect symphony of coincidences that lead to a touching love with her concept & story.
Thanks for all the efforts, I can say “Ask Tesadüfleri Sever” is the best Turkish movie I’ve watched for the last few years.
