Faraway

Zeynap Altin is at the end of her tether: she works far too much and is not valued at all by her husband, daughter and father. To make matters worse, the funeral home dressed her beloved late mother in a man's suit instead of her favorite dress. Enough is enough: Zeynep flees from Munich to the previously unknown holiday home on a Croatian island that her mother secretly bought years ago - with the hope of finding quiet, peace and herself there. If only the previous owner Josip, a rough islander, didn't still live on the same property and annoy her with his views and wisdom.
Sure, we've seen this movie done many times before. But then again, so has just about any other movie. While this movie drifts dangerously close to becoming a Hallmark channel movie I think that it ever quite gets there. Beyond that... I really enjoyed the movie. I found the chemistry between the leads to be fantastic and I found myself rooting for them (something I rarely do). You can certainly do worse than this movie.
