Arzu ile Kamber, another film shot by Lütfi Ömer Akad alongside Tahir ile Zühre in Iraq, is one of Akad's attempts at fairy-tale historical films. In folk literature, the story of Arzu ile Kamber, like those of Tahir ile Zühre, Leyla ile Mecnun, and Ferhat ile Şirin, is a tragic love story passed down from generation to generation, so heartbreaking that it inspired elegies to be written in their names.
