Mehmet is a man living with his family in a mountain village. He earns his life breeding a few animals, while looking for a mineral reserve on the mountains but his pursuit is seen as useless by his family. Destroyed in search of a mineral reserve, his hope is renewed with the news of competition.
A slow-burning intensity surrounds this rural drama about a family’s fight to survive in the inhospitable mountains of northern Turkey. The changing of the seasons, the beauty—and brutality—of nature, and a deliberately hypnotic pace: all this captures their remarkable perseverance amid adversity.
