For sale on DVD at www.strandreleasing.com
Nejat initially disapproves of his widower father Alis choice of prostitute Yeter for a live-in girlfriend. But the young professor warms to her when he learns that most of her hard-earned money is sent home to Turkey for her daughters university studies. After Yeters accidental death, Nejat travels to Istanbul to search for Yeters daughter Ayten. Political activist Ayten has fled the Turkish police and is already in Germany. She is befriended by a young woman, Lotte, who invites rebellious Ayten to stay in her home, much to the displeasure of her conservative mother, Susanne. When Ayten is arrested and her asylum plea denied, she is deported and imprisoned in Turkey. Passionate Lotte abandons everything to help Ayten. A tragic event brings Susanne to Istanbul to help fulfill her daughters mission. Winner of the Best Screenplay in the Cannes Film Festival 2007.
