Zalim (1970)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

The film tells the story of conjoined twin brothers who want to avenge their father. The Byzantine governor makes a deal with the Russian tsar to avoid paying taxes to the Turks. Led by Zalim, the Russians attack the city of Amuryon. While the Russians are attacking the city, a Turkish warrior named Kafkaslı Mahmut has two sons. Although the Russians kill Mahmut, the twins are saved. Mahmut's servant Ömer sends one of the children, Cafer, to Samarkand to be under the protection of Uluğ Bey. He takes Cafer's brother, Ali, under his wing. When Cafer and Ali reach adulthood, they will take action to avenge their father's death.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
