    • Quotes

      Tonton Ali: They have thought us during the military service. Ten years of war and ten years of victories. Now it is the babies who are singing the same song. It has been 30 years since. Still we do not have a pant of our own. Ten years of war, ten years of victories. My ass.

    10/10
    An excellent film on the prisons during military intervention in Turkey
    Duvar is the last film of Yilmaz Guney. It was made in France under very bad conditions. But it is successful on describing the violence in prison without being too much 'political'. It's a striking movie, which nobody could stay indifferent to it.
