Kasaba (1998): Told from the perspective of two children, and in four parts which run parallel to seasons, KASABA describes relationships between members of a Turkish family in a small town. The first part is in a primary school where the family's 11 year old doughter is a pupil. It shows the social environment to which she has to adopt, and its difficulties. She faces with her feeling of shame and some merciless clues of life... The second part is in spring. We see the girl with her brother, who is four years younger, and their journey to the corn field where their family are waiting for them. As they pass through the countryside, they encounter the mysteries of nature and wildlife... In the third part the brother and sister witness the complexities and darkness of the adult world... The fourth part takes place at home. This is a tranquil sequence moving between reality and dream.
Clouds Of May (1999): This May in the town seems to be warmer and gloomier than the previous years. Still, everyone seems to be happy despite their small worries and lives closed for any surprises. However, this happiness is a little disturbed by the arrival of Muzaffer who has made up his mind to shoot a film in this town where he had passed his childhood.

Kasaba
Nuri Bilge Ceylan's debut feature is a beautifully poetic evocation of small town life, with a few minor, forgivable flaws.

Sweet nature
I was loving this film for the first 30 or 40 minutes.
Wintery small Turkish town. Mongrel dogs skulking a solitary road into nowhere. Wood pigeons ... read more »
