not only boring but technically annoying, 27 June 2008
4/10
Author: hkocer from Turkey

Yusuf was selling old books in a city. He learned that his mother living in a small town was dead and he returned to his hometown to join the funeral. After the funeral he was planning to return city but with unexpected events, he stayed in the village 2 days more.

Scenorio is boring and suffering from lack of communications. Cinematography (composition-light-sountrack) is not successful. I watched the film till end, for the sake of my movie love.

I couldn't realize the reasons that juries gave the national and international awards to this film.

In summary there very successful films from Turkey, gaining awards all over the world and are really joyful.
