Quite simply a masterpiece

This is a film where art, life and cinema collide, bridging culture and language. A stunner. If Hollywood is your thing, stay away. If you can cope with a film which relies on fabulous visual imagery and superb acting, rather than lots of words, to tell a story then you're in for a rare treat. And my Turkish mate tells me it's portrayl of life in his country is as authentic as it gets.
