"Tears dripping down my face."

Netflix users have been flocking to social media in tears over a movie which came onto the streaming service earlier this year.

If you've been getting a bit bored of all the cheeriness and festivity of Christmas and need something to break up your rewatches of Elf and The Holiday a bit, then fear not, because there's a film reducing people to tears which you can find on Netflix.

Get ready to request a new heart from Santa after yours breaks:

Directed by Mehmet Ada Öztekin, the Turkish film stars the likes of Aras Bulut İynemli - known for his work in As Time Goes By - and İbrahim İlker Aksum.

Netflix's synopsis for the movie reads: "Separated from his daughter, a father with an intellectual disability must prove his innocence when he is jailed for the death of a commander's child."

The film first came out in October 2019 and was the most-watched film in Turkish theaters that year.

It's inspired by the 2013 South Korean comedy-drama film of the same name, which was based on the real-life story of a man who pleaded guilty under duress to the rape and murder of a nine-year-old girl in Chuncheon, 1972 - with the man tortured before his plea. In 2008, the man was eventually exonerated.

The 2019 movie was released onto Netflix in March this year and if the reviews flooding onto social media are anything to go by, it's definitely one to add to your watch list.

Netflix's description says it all really.

Not only does the film have an impressive Rotten Tomatoes audience score of 85 percent, but people have been flocking online in pieces after having stumbled across the film - Miracle in Cell No.7 - on Netflix.

One X - formerly known as Twitter - user said: "When I wasn't already emotionally stable enough this past week that I decided to watch miracle in cell no. seven. love to make myself suffer.

"The fact that I so randomly decided to watch it & man I've never cried as much while watching a movie."

A TikTok user wrote: "Cried from beginning to end. I relate to that movie."

Another added: "Just watched it. OMG tears dripping down my face. Absolute game changer. It's totally brilliant. Thanks for the recommendation x."

And a final resolved: "Me and my twins watched this and sobbed absolutely fantastic film total softest!!"
