Zehra and Olgun spend most of their young lives working in a service station cafeteria near a lonely highway. Their work shifts are only broken up by sparks of naive expectations of a brighter future. They will experience a bittersweet rite of passage, leading to both suffering and awakening.
Touching on the disorienting chapter of young adolescence in a monotonous town, Yeşim Ustaoğlu’s lacerating drama examines the plight of young women constrained by social mores. With scintillating performances by Neslihan Atagül and Nihal Yalçın, this is a profoundly moving tale of hope and despair.
