Having just entered puberty, the bride had been forced to marry with the groom whom returned to his hometown after doing many years of jail time and more than fifty years older than her.
Set in a single room, this evocative wedding-night drama summons the spirit of Scheherazade stories to spark a mythical, timeless feeling. With nuanced performances from Ilyas Salman and Dilan Aksüt, Reis Çelik’s film subtly explores the burden of patriarchal traditions and a fragile masculinity.
