影評：
- 「……一部感人而引人入勝的悲喜劇，年輕素人演員飾演主角，表現優異……」
- 「本片的結局令人難以忘懷，虛構的劇情反映了當前規避責任的體制，屈從與不公義的樣貌迴盪在觀眾心中。」（凱文賈格納思，The Playlist）
- 「製作優良的劇情片，《失格教育》欲傳遞的訊息及製作都值得稱道，角色的編寫可更細膩」（傑伊韋斯伯格，綜藝報）
- 「法利卡拉罕帶來優質的第二部長片，與克里斯提普尤的《Death Of Mr. Lazarescu》有相似之處，但《失格教育》是一個更精簡、更有推動力的敘事」（溫蒂伊德，銀幕日報）
- 「一部技術成熟但概念可再加強的劇情片……本片傳達了挫折的訊息，過於天真。」（弗拉丹佩特科維奇，Cineuropa）
- 導演法利卡拉罕的第二部精彩製作，靈感來自本身的不愉快經歷……卡拉罕善於執導童星，伊爾迪茲深邃的眼神富有表情，如同羅伯特布列松的《驢子巴達薩》，記錄著每一次無可名狀的打擊……」
Synopsis
Yusuf and his best friend Memo are Kurdish pupils at a boarding school secluded in the Anatolian mountains. When Memo falls mysteriously ill, Yusuf is forced to struggle through the bureaucratic obstacles put up by the school’s repressive authorities to try to help him. When the adults finally understand the seriousness of Memo’s condition and try to get him to the hospital, the school is cut off from the world by a heavy snowfall. With no way out and now desperate to find help, teachers and pupils engage in a blame game where grudges, feelings of guilt and hidden secrets emerge, as time ticks mercilessly on.
Synopsis
At a remote boarding school for Kurdish boys in the mountains of Eastern Anatolia, close friends Yusuf and Memo make the best of difficult conditions: freezing temperatures, unappetizing meals, callous instructors. When Memo falls ill, Yusuf desperately tries to get the attention of the adults around him, but frustratingly, he’s met with apathy and complacency at every turn. With naturalistic performances from his young stars and evocative cinematography, filmmaker Ferit Karahan presents a revealing child’s eye view of the damaging dysfunction of a dispassionate bureaucratic system. Winner of the Fipresci prize in the Panorama competition of the Berlin Film Festival.

Reviews:
- “…a truly touching and fascinating tragicomedy with an impressive young protagonist played by a non-professional actor…”
- "The film’s haunting conclusion is a pointed, damning echo between fiction and that reality, and a disarming snapshot of resignation and injustice that lingers like so much fallen snow." Kevin Jagernauth: The Playlist
- "Well-made yet predictable drama (...) Worthy in message and filmmaking prowess, 'Brother’s Keeper' is ill-served by its lack of nuanced characters" Jay Weissberg: Variety
- "Ferit Karahan’s superb second feature (...) There are similarities with Cristi Puiu’s The Death Of Mr. Lazarescu, although Brother’s Keeper is a leaner and more propulsive piece of storytelling" Wendy Ide: Screendaily
- "A technically accomplished but conceptually flawed and often tone-deaf drama (...) the message the film sends are disappointing and feel very naive." Vladan Petkovic: Cineuropa
- Sophomore director Ferit Karahan mines his own unhappy experiences with this well-made yet predictable drama…… Karahan directs the child actors admirably, and there’s no escaping Yıldız’s dark, expressive eyes, incomprehensibly registering each blow like Robert Bresson’s Balthazar…
