I LOVE THIS!
An absolute feast of cinematic delights... From breathtaking cinematography to richly textured screenplay... This is a very very special film.
There's no point in telling the synopsis... The director, Nehir Tuna, uses the 'show, not tell' strategy to present this unique coming-of-age story... A wealthy teenage boy in 1996 Turkey parallelly attending a private school for rich kids and a religious school for poor kids where he also lives in a dormitory or Yurt... It is filled with countless fleeting moments of quiet observations and subtle commentaries on power, politics, love, rage, religion, obsession, friendship, class difference, income inequality, maturity and much more... which makes this film so Effective and Unforgettable.
Can't wait to watch more films from this director. Top-notch craftsmanship.
