Uzak (2002)
(Distant)
Country: TUR
Technical: col 110m
Director: Nuri Bilge Ceylan
Cast: Muzaffer Özdemir, Emin Toprak, Nazan Kirilmis
Synopsis:
A country mouse comes to Istanbul and stays with a city mouse, his cousin. Neither is able to relate effectively to other people.
Review:
So runs the director's own précis of his film, more or less. It is a deeply suggestive work in which one is left to make one's own observations and draw one's own conclusions, but the frequently snowbound chilliness certainly extends to the characters' lives and the prevailing atmosphere of pessimism.
