horizontal line

While a discontented Turkish university professor (Baki Davrak) in Hamburg returns to Istanbul to search for the daughter (Nurgül Yesilçay) of a prostitute (Nursel Köse) accidentally killed during an argument by his lonely, widowed, elderly father (Tuncel Kurtiz) in this compelling, down-to-earth, well-acted, Oscar-nominated film, a Turkish political activist goes to Germany to search for her mother whom she believes sells shoes in Bremen and is befriended by a gay German student (Patrycia Ziolkowska) who invites her to move in with her and her mulish mother (Hanna Schygulla).
