    the movie has just won the best film award in Golden Orange festival, and i was able to watch the movie in the festival.

    the story is a simple one. we see a man living in a big city and somehow isolated a bit from the small hometown and the people living there. One of the people is his mother.

    One day his mother dies and the man returns to hometown for funeral. There he meets with the girl who was taking care of his mum.

    The man who don t care about life, who do not cry, discharges with a funny coincidence.

    With stable and wide frames, long sequences and clever jokes, this movie deserves watching.
