Set on the northwest coast of Turkey, this film is a portrait of of life, family and school in a hillside village as seen through the eyes of three young people. “Erdem’s calculated juggling of small events creates an atmosphere of much more going on than is actually shown on screen,” writes Variety critic Derek Elley. The film won a Golden Tulip for best film at the 2006 Istanbul International Film Festival.
