Netflix: The sequel to the Turkish drama that shocked viewers in 2022 is a success on the platform

The rest of life 2 is available on Netflix

On March 21, 2022, Netflix subscribers were surely expecting to discover a classic romantic drama Rest life. However, the Turkish film preferred tragedy to romance, with Melisa (Aslı Enver), a single mother with an incurable disease. She lives every moment she has left with her six-year-old son. She however thinks about the future and who could take care of him when she is no longer here. This is how she meets Firat (Kaan Urgancıoğlu), a handsome man used to ending up on the front page of magazines. Even if they don’t seem really made for each other, the two will get closer and experience a moment of happiness.

When it was uploaded to Netflix, Rest life shocked the audience. Because there is no turnaround and no miraculous recovery for Melisa. Thus, at the end of the feature film, she left behind her son Can (Mert Ege Ak) and Firat. Enough to break the hearts of many spectators. But after the success of the film, Netflix mainly ordered a second work: The rest of life 2. Also directed by Ketche, the drama is available on the platform from May 23rdand immediately attracted the attention of subscribers.

Fewer tears but still emotion afterwards

In fact, a few days after its arrival on the streaming service, The rest of life 2 he got inside the 10 best new releases most watched on Netflix in France, in 3rd place. In this sequel we find Firat, who is obviously not at his best since Melisa’s death a year ago. In fact, we discover him drunk and struggling to get home during the first scene of The rest of life 2. Man is in a phase of self-destruction, but he must compose himself. Why now he has to take care of his son (revelation of the first work). The film therefore first and foremost places emphasis on the relationship between this father and his son, who discover each other and their suffering in Melisa’s absence. It is then that a new meeting will upset their daily lives.

While chatting in a bar, Firat and his son are interrupted Sezen (Melisa Asli Pamuk), a woman who asks them to be quieter, explaining that she has to work. The latter is not very understanding, and does not hesitate to shatter Can’s dream of going back in time. A somewhat tense meeting that could have ended there. Only during a party, and still drunk, Firat meets Sezen again. A love story will then begin between them and they will both discover the tragedies of their past.

If the audience had been very touched by the first film, The rest of life 2 it shows less tragic, even if the emotion is there. A proposal that should convince fans of this type of production Netflix.
