About Meçhul Kahramanlar
Ayşe is the daughter of a father who sided with the sultan against the National Struggle. She is about to marry a captain against her will. Osman, on the other hand, is one of the soldiers fighting for the liberation of the country. One day, he and his men raid Ayşe's house and take some money. After this incident, Ayşe's father, overcome with fear, wants to return to Istanbul. Ayşe, however, insists that they must join the National Struggle. This leads to an argument between Ayşe and her fiancé, the captain. During the argument, the captain accidentally kills Ayşe's father. After this incident, Ayşe decides to join the National Forces.
Directed by Agah Hün, Meçhul Kahramanlar leans on a strong ensemble — Ayhan Işık, Turan Seyfioğlu, Sezer Sezin — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1958.

7.1Cross of Iron
1977 7.1
It is 1943, and the German army—ravaged and demoralised—is hastily retreating from the Russian front. In the midst of the madness, conflict brews between the aristocratic yet ultimately pusillanimous Captain Stransky and the courageous Corporal Steiner. Stransky is the only man who believes that the Third Reich is still vastly superior to the Russian army. However, within his pompous persona lies a quivering coward who longs for the Iron Cross so that he can return to Berlin a hero. Steiner, on the other hand is cynical, defiantly non-conformist and more concerned with the safety of his own men rather than the horde of military decorations offered to him by his superiors.
