Yunus Emre (2015–2016)
9/10
Masterfully done - heart touching exploration of Sufism
13 March 2019
Absolutely brilliant series, the acting top tier, the cinematography is beautiful, I feel transported to a different time and place. I am fascinated by the teachings of the Sheikh and the humanized struggles of the protagonists as we see Yunus struggling with his unchecked ego. Many scenes/teachings leave me teary eyed (I never cry!)

The only criticism I have concerns the subtitles, they are not good enough for a masterpiece such as this. I would implore Netflix to PLEASE re subtitle this series for the world audience. Although I can follow along, I feel that I am missing out on like 25-50% of the beauty of the old Turkish language with respect to the spiritual lessons being taught by the character of the Sheikh.

God Bless all of you.
