Warning: Spoilers
Sometimes in our lives, we don't realize or want to realize what we have, like Alper. Maybe we pretend like we don't realize due to our fear of losing someone that we are connected with all of ourselves. Alper has Ada but he is afraid of losing her after he is connected to her totally. He tries to escape from the probability of losing her. He tries to end the relationship before he is connected to her with all of himself. But he fails to evade the experience of losing her. He realizes that he has been intensely in love with her and connected to her, with his entire own being. This realization of Alper makes him desperate and miserable. But i think that, he has been aware of everything from the moment that he has bought that book. He has known that he would suffer the pain of losing Ada. But the question is: Is it worth to experience this love despite everything?

Kaan is a man who is chronically addicted to the euphoria that comes with the newness of people and situations. But this addiction of him causes him to be lost in a loop. This situation makes him an unpredictable and neglective man. In the relationship between Zeynep and Kaan, the beginning of it is full of passion and fun. However, in the long term, Zeynep, who has a goal to achieve, has conflicts with Kaan's perspective on life and expectations. Zeynep, contrary to Kaan, has high expectations of life and has problems with Kaan's belief that life is meaningless and empty. The oxymoron which is a factor that i love about this movie is that meaninglessness is a theme that processed with such quotes that sound meaningful and deep. Zeynep tends to change Kaan's point of view, but she fails. This effort of her is total nonsense, because the attractiveness and beauty of Kaan come from his perspective on life. She falls in love with him because of his attractiveness that comes with his rock n roll lifestyle and she tends to change the thing that has made her fall in love with him. Kaan is a man who is not going to change, and he doesn't want to. He enjoys the situation of being melancholic and lost on the streets of Kadikoy, the heart of rock n roll lifestyle in Istanbul.
