Snow and the Bear (2022) Movie Script
FOR EVERYONE WAITING HOPEFULLY
UNTIL THE ENDLESS WINTER HAS ENDED...
Hello. Is Akeken straight ahead?
- You took the wrong turn.
The road is closed. You must go back.
Did you see a big tree?
You must have the turn at that tree.
Then I'll turn around here.
- That doesn't work here. Further on, yes.
Okay thanks.
I just wanted to go back.
I can show you the way.
Are you going to Akceken?
- I am from Akeken.
Please. Thank you. That's nice.
This is a difficult time. When the snow
is gone, you can see paradise below.
No, this is fine.
That must have been an unexpected accident.
We can have it made in the village.
This is fine for now, but would
you like to fasten the side?
Yes there.
I'll have it repaired.
Stay seated.
Stay put, madam nurse.
Welcome. - Hello.
I am Mahmut, the village chief.
- Nice to meet you.
Would you like to bring in your
belongings and get some rest?
Please. - Akif, boy.
Akif works for the village. If you
need anything, you should come to him.
Feeling hungry? - No, thank you.
No baklava either?
- No, I'm going to the health center.
Good. Shut up, it's cold.
Samet, you forgot your pockets.
Thank you.
You are one to me.
Come on in.
This house has been empty for a long time.
This is the kitchen. Everything is there.
Plates and stuff. Let me
know if you need anything else.
When did you say the doctor is coming?
- The doctor?
It's coming soon.
He normally comes on Tuesdays.
They say he got stranded
in the next village. In Sopan.
The road to opan is even
worse than the one to here.
He's blocked. But it will open
again. I can give you his numbers.
Okay, I'll talk to him.
Make yourself at home.
It's clean here, don't worry.
I change and then go to the
health center. Thank you Akif.
I'm going to get the rest of your things.
- I'll do that myself.
All right then.
Just tell me if you need anything.
Welcome again. Have a nice day.
Everything is fine, mom.
I've installed myself.
Give daddy.
- I don't know if he wants to talk to you.
Still not? - He told you not to go.
Give him. - Ahmet, Asli on the phone.
And you shouldn't be so stubborn.
Who cares that this is
your mandatory service?
He can get you transferred.
I'm here now and I'm not
going to change my mind.
Then you just have to know for yourself.
You are a loner.
How are you supposed to survive there
on your own? You can work here, too.
I haven't slept in days. - Please, mom.
He won't talk to you if
you're being so stubborn.
Tell him I got that from him too.
I'll call again. Lots of love.
- I talk to you soon. Best.
Those blood pressure
meds don't work for a meter.
It feels like a cow is
sitting on my chest.
And how are you now?
- I'm checking that now.
Check it out, honey.
I am glad you are here.
Are your parents still alive?
- Yes sir. Don't talk for a while, okay?
Do you have children?
You're all right. Just keep
taking the doctor's meds.
He'll examine you when he gets back.
- Those drugs don't work at all.
Welcome. - Hello.
Congratulations. - Thank you.
The doctor prescribed these pills.
They came from the city.
He's not here now. Can
you tell me how to take them?
But you shouldn't have come. You
should have sent someone to ask.
I'm sure the doctor
told you to stay in bed.
I will examine you. You're done.
Just come back for an investigation.
Come. - Tell me how to take them.
I'll come when the doctor comes back.
I'm in a hurry.
I will examine you. Maybe he
won't come all week in this weather.
This way.
Are you in pain? - No.
Did you bleed?
A little.
When? - Yesterday. But not that much.
I'm sure the doctor said the baby
is in danger if you don't stay in bed.
You are only allowed to get
up to go to the toilet and stuff.
Take one pill after
breakfast and one before bed.
You have to stay in bed, okay?
- Thank you.
Have a nice day. - Thank you. You too.
Mr. Refik, shall I take you home?
The US president wants to
withdraw from the climate agreement...
erif, make me a fresh cup of tea.
America will eventually have to eat fuel.
God gives you something
and takes away something else.
Listen up. Can't you hear me?
This tea is ice cold.
And give Samet some too.
Do you want tea, boy?
Mahmut, he should have left
those bags outside. They stink.
No more bones for you.
Not even if you pay for it.
A bear would have dug up a corpse...
erif, turn that thing down a bit.
The panic-mongering.
They went there the next day and
the body was no longer in the tomb.
Traces of claws were visible.
He dug up that body.
They'll be here soon.
Little Niyazi Alarca says he saw one.
Many people have seen one.
Those beasts must be hungry.
May God protect our children.
I've always said it.
Now they dig up the dead
and soon they will attack us.
God forbid.
Do I really smell like meat?
- Yes, a little bit.
No, boy, that was a joke.
Hopefully the nurse didn't mind.
There is a new cemetery
at the hill, Hasene.
You can bury me there.
I don't like the old cemetery.
It's so dark.
That new cemetery is better.
Lots of daylight and a nice view.
All right, Refik, hurry up then.
Those graves will be gone in no time.
Good Lord.
This is dinner for tonight.
And put this around your neck.
Otherwise the cold
will still enter your lungs.
Normally the snow is now gone
and green can be seen again.
It feels like God is
leaving us out in the cold.
Forgive me, God.
Hasene. This is her mandatory service.
Naturally. No one would
come here if it wasn't mandatory.
That fat nurse was gone in no time.
It is very nicely knitted. Thank you.
Apparently his father
was also a half-wit.
He would prefer to sleep with the animals.
But a man is a man and
a beast is a beast, right?
Right, boy? Look.
Welcome.
Welcome, madam nurse.
What would you like?
Some minced meat please.
Is 300 grams enough? - Yes.
I told you to rest.
Who should do all the work then?
Who rests without having worked...
They say the roads will soon be blocked.
If you have a bleeding,
you cannot go to the hospital.
Madam nurse.
You're welcome here, but
you're talking us down the drain.
How so?
When the doctor comes
back, we'll figure out what to do.
You don't have to
bother people for nothing.
The doctor will say the same.
The doctor can't come in this weather.
He won't be back for a few weeks.
Ahmet, what are you standing there for?
Get out.
Madam Nurse, the people
of this village are tough.
You are new here.
You don't know much yet.
Go to work. We'll be fine.
I'm doing my job. - Hasan, enough.
I'm fine. I know how I feel myself.
Do not you worry. I'll be fine.
Nice day.
Would you like to open the door?
Then we stick it here.
Didn't I say I'd take care of it?
That was not necessary.
I don't even drive it.
It will remain in place until
the window is replaced.
Just let me know if you
need any firewood or anything.
I can use that.
Just let me know what it costs.
No. You don't owe me anything.
Thank you. - You too.
MINISTRY OF PUBLIC HEALTH
HEALTH CENTER AKEKEN
What a rotten weather. You
have come here at the worst time.
I am Hayri. - Hello.
The villagers are used to it, but we...
- It's very cold.
I know it's late, but would
you look at my hand?
What happened? - A bat.
A bat?
I don't know if he bit or scratched me.
Come on, I'll take a look inside.
Sorry to bother you with it.
- No problem.
The barracks are full of those beasts.
They should hibernate.
Instead, they destroy state property.
We found their nest.
But then they did this.
I thought there were no bats now.
This is a strange place.
I mean, with all those
people and animals here.
Can I sit down? - Yes of course.
They are stubborn.
But once you get used to it, it's fine.
I had trouble with it
in the beginning too.
They say the roads are getting
blocked. What if there's an emergency?
They say so much.
The upper road is sometimes closed.
- Would you put it here?
But it takes a lot of
snow to block our way.
And that will take a few days at the most.
It's a nice village.
I do all sorts of things here. Maybe
I'll write a book about it someday.
The diary of a gendarmerie commander:
The Revenge of the Bats.
But who would want to read that?
Why wouldn't people read it?
I'm curious how it ends.
Nice. Then I have at least one reader.
But it's about the end.
Bat-bitten Hayri goes to his
cold room at the barracks...
eat dry beans from yesterday
and dream of a warm future.
End.
Is there a supermarket near here?
There is one near the mosque.
But don't go there now.
They say bears roam.
No problem.
I wanted to study archeology...
but fate decreed otherwise.
I became a bat exterminator here.
Anyway, this is a nice village.
Do I really need an injection?
- I'll give one just in case.
Mahmut, listen up.
Pass the bread.
Hasan. Can't you hear me?
Pass the bread.
You've been drinking a lot again.
What's wrong?
How did that thing end?
How is your wife?
Please don't bring up Cemile.
- I'm talking about that other woman.
I stopped doing that. Real.
I promised Cemile that. I said
we're leaving here after the winter.
Gossip is still going on.
Come on, you're not going anywhere.
You let that woman bully you.
Cemile is behind this, isn't she?
- Of course not.
Come on.
I'm tired of this place.
I'm really up to here, Mahmut.
No one supported me when I
got that fine. Neither do you.
I risked my life to
protect their children.
They are ungrateful.
They are all ungrateful.
Samet, come in.
What?
Are you doing this on purpose?
You don't mean this, do you?
I'm going. This is no use. - Samet...
I was wondering why you
invited me all of a sudden.
Hasan, shut up. Samet, sit down.
I have invited you.
It's been nice.
We're going to talk this out tonight.
Hasan, Samet's father
asked me to watch him.
And you are like a brother to me.
- Mahmut, it's not my fault, is it?
He reported me. Traitor.
That bear tried to get into my shed.
And then I killed him. Did
you say that to the government?
Hasan. It's not allowed by law.
There is a fine.
It is prohibited by law.
So if the law allowed you
to kill them all, would you?
So a bear's life is worth nothing?
Did God make him so we could kill him?
He shot and killed a bear
that was caught in a trap. Killer.
Have you gone crazy?
What kind of life is he talking about?
I didn't shoot anyone.
Do you think you understand everything?
Am I stupid sometimes? You keep spinning.
Hasan, shut up.
- He doesn't know what he's talking about.
The people were in danger.
Thanks to you I got fined.
They should have rewarded me.
Sample. - Watch your language.
You keep taking those
bones and stuff to the woods.
If that other bear gets hungry
and comes to the village...
I'll shoot him right away.
Do you hear what I say?
Then I immediately shoot him down.
Samet, don't. Don't, dude.
Samet. - Monster.
You ruined the evening.
I'm really tired of this place.
The snow, the winter, the
bears and the monsters.
And the people. I'm sick of it.
Hello. A pack of cigarettes, please.
Thank you. Where are the oranges?
Madam nurse.
What are you doing here so late?
This weather makes you fearless.
I am talking to you.
Stop. What do you want?
You just say what you
want and you rant at people.
And you don't listen when we talk.
Do you think we're retarded?
Do you think I can't
take care of my wife?
I am talking to you. - Don't touch me.
Stupid drunk. Maniac.
Maniac.
mer's eyebrow is open. You
must come to the health center.
Good. I'll be right there.
BUTCHERY
Run. come. - Wait for me.
Thank you. Omer, pay attention.
Soon your other eyebrow will also be open.
How is your mother?
- She's sad again because of daddy.
He can drop dead. All men are
the same. They run after their dick.
That's all you can talk about, right?
Ali. - Well done, Hamiyet.
Am I sometimes lying? Stop it, girl.
Omer, we're going home.
Hello.
What is? - Nothing.
How are you? Everthing allright?
- Sure.
With you? - Good.
I brought some wood.
I put a tarp over it.
Thank you. What do I owe you?
- You don't owe me anything.
Madam nurse.
Madam nurse, we were looking for you.
Cemile is not feeling well.
And Hasan is gone again.
Can you come and have a look?
- Naturally. I'll be right there.
Samet. What are you doing here?
- Nothing.
You don't have to shut down. I will stay here.
- Fine.
Good luck. - Thank you.
Carefully. Watch the ice.
Come in, Miss Nurse. Here it is.
Just keep walking.
Come on in. Cemile isn't feeling
well and I didn't know what to do.
Welcome. They let you come for nothing.
That's okay, Cemile. I'll examine you.
I've already told them
there's nothing wrong.
I'm fine. I was dizzy.
Now it's okay again.
Roll up your sleeve.
Have you taken your meds? - Yes.
Have you had any bleeding? - No.
Have a look.
Just raise your arm.
Your blood pressure is now normal.
But you have to stay in bed.
Mahmut. You should go find Hasan
instead of bothering me for nothing.
Dear God, give me some patience.
Hello darling. Nothing wrong.
Your mother is fine.
What happened?
There's nothing wrong with me.
Ayten was worrying about nothing again.
You take better care of
Hasan than you do yourself.
And he got you pregnant again.
They saw him with that woman.
He'll be with her again.
Who saw him? - I heard that.
Didn't I tell him he
wouldn't keep his word?
We were going to leave
here too, weren't we?
I never believed him.
Go do the dishes. Hurry up. Now.
You shouldn't believe everything you hear.
- Come on.
What a big mouth.
She has become a stubborn know-it-all.
- Who would she get that from?
I'm not like that anymore. This
village will also put her in her place.
You're a chatterbox, Ayten.
Hasan promised me it's over.
But people need something to talk about.
Where can he be?
You have to stay in bed, okay? You
must call me if you are not feeling well.
Otherwise call. - God bless you.
Wait, I'll walk you home.
- That's not necessary. Its not far.
No, it's already late.
Mahmut. Go talk to the gendarmerie.
Go find Hasan.
Why were you drinking again last night?
I hope Hasan didn't freeze to death.
You should dress warmer.
You'll catch a cold soon.
The people don't know what to do.
The government protects the
bears, but this is no ordinary bear.
He's aggressive.
He has psychological problems.
This endless winter
has driven them all crazy.
They are no longer afraid of fire.
They are used to rattling cans.
Have they seen one recently?
- They say yes.
May God protect us. I'm terrified of it.
I encountered one as a child.
We looked straight at each
other and I was so scared I...
He looked at me and maybe he
kept walking because I was so small.
I still see him in my dreams.
What if Hasan...
Just imagine. God forbid.
We are almost there. Thank you.
Good evening. - Good evening.
You are not your picture.
Your photo belongs to my world.
I don't know you, but your picture does.
Maybe you'll destroy
all my beautiful feelings.
Your behavior stems from fear.
- Yes, fear that...
Madam nurse.
I was on my way to you.
What is?
I thought I heard something.
- Hopefully it's not a bear.
Why were you looking for me?
- Commander Hayri wants to see you.
Why? - He just said to get you.
Okay fine. Let's go.
Hasan the butcher has still not
been found and his phone is off.
He sometimes stays
away, but his wife is worried.
He and Samet have a disagreement.
The night before they had
been drinking and arguing.
No one has seen him since.
Why would I hurt him?
He says you saw him go
home. He had brought firewood.
I ran into Samet that
evening in the village square.
In the morning he came to bring that wood.
But I also saw Hasan on my way home.
He was drunk.
Could barely stand on his feet.
A lot of nonsense came out of him.
Commander, the bats have shit
all over the equipment. Apologies.
Our people clean it up,
but one of them got bitten.
Why are you laughing?
How dare you barge in here?
We are conducting an investigation.
Get out. - Yes sir.
They can't behave.
Let's hit the road. Come along too.
If you do not mind. - Fine.
Tell me where you last saw
him. Then we'll look there.
Samet, you can go.
But I'll keep an eye on you, okay?
It was about here.
Stop.
Sorry we've been a nuisance to you.
- Does not matter.
I'm going to the health center.
- Naturally. We'll take a look around.
We won't find anything,
but we'll do our best.
Good luck. - Thank you.
We split into two groups. You go down.
Carefully.
Hello. - With Dr. Kansu Grler.
Who am I speaking to? - With me, Asli.
Asli? - We have spoken eachother.
The nurse. How are you?
- Good. With you?
I couldn't reach Akif,
but the way here is open.
He has to bring some stuff.
- He's got food poisoning.
Then I will call the village chief.
Bring the meds to him.
I can bring them.
- It's not easy to get here.
It's hard to find. - I have a phone.
If something happens...
- What medicines should I bring?
Just hold on.
Akif is such a carefree boy.
He must be sleeping at home.
He has food poisoning.
Have you taken your medicines?
I take them alternately.
Then I have no headache one day
and normal blood pressure the next day.
I can tell from your blood pressure which
one you took. Keep taking the medicines.
It's good that the doctor ran away.
- He didn't run away, he got stranded.
Why would he run away?
- Of course he ran away.
I've never seen such a winter.
It's one big curse.
If I could, I'd run too.
This snow doesn't just melt.
What shame is underneath?
Say hello to Hasene. - I will do.
Hello people. Where are you going?
- Find Hasan.
Have you heard anything about him?
That too.
Are you following me or something?
I'm going to the forest.
Leave food for the animals.
Are you stuck?
Thank you for saying so, Samet.
Where are you going?
Hello? Hello.
You can walk to the village with me. Then
we take a shorter route through the forest.
A tractor can tow the car away.
I'll wait here. Just send someone
when you get there. Say it's urgent.
Do you want to wait here? - Yes.
How long will it take?
- Walking takes a while.
Is it very far? - A little.
Okay thanks.
Wait, I'm coming with you.
Did you get the wood?
Oh yes, thank you.
But the heater doesn't work very well.
Thank you. Thanks to you,
the commander let me go so fast.
No problem. I just said what I saw.
I'm blamed for everything.
I would have been in trouble
if you said you didn't see me.
I say it, but they don't understand.
There are no bears now.
They don't just wake up.
But they keep on talking about it.
Do you come here every day? To
keep them from coming to the village?
They only come when they are starving.
Those animals want nothing to do with us.
We only cause them problems.
They fear that Hasan
has been killed by a bear.
What?
My father often told this story.
When he was my age he met a bear.
He held his rifle to the bear's head.
The animal crouched.
He raised both hands.
Like he begged for his life.
My father said: He lifted up his
hands and begged like a man.
He didn't understand. He had
the gun and pulled the trigger.
"Click." The gun jammed.
The bear grabbed my father and hit him.
My father lost consciousness.
When he came to, the bear was gone.
He was covered in blood and
had a claw mark on his neck.
That scar was his trophy, he said.
The lesson he had learned.
The animal raised his hands and
said: Don't touch me, I have a life too.
He gave me a chance,
but I didn't take it.
I had a gun, so I pulled the trigger.
My father said: Before,
I blamed the bear...
but now I see that I was wrong.
Hello? - Hello, Dad?
Hello darling? Is your stubbornness over?
- And yours? I got that from you.
How is it going there?
- Do not worry. Fine.
Did my friend Sinan call you?
He's spoken to a high-ranking friend.
Why? - He'll get you transferred.
Who told you to do that?
- That's fine with a mandatory service.
He can transfer you. - How?
What do you care? He arranges it.
- I didn't ask for it.
Why didn't you ask?
You make us miserable.
Your mother misses you.
I miss you guys too, but...
- It feels like you ran away.
I'm not coming. It's fine here.
- Whatever you want, Asli.
Hello?
Is there any news about him?
- No, we can't find him.
AKEKEN GENDARMERIE BARS
Here. - Okay, don't worry.
I know where he is.
I'll get him towed away.
You shouldn't have walked.
That weird Samet can't be trusted.
Thanks again. - Be careful.
What are they called?
- This is Hayriye and that is Pimaniye.
Did you call them that?
- Mama invented Hayriye.
How is your mother? - The same.
I said dad left her again.
And she's mad at me.
I never believed Dad. I'm not crazy.
He kept saying we
would leave in the spring.
I'll get out of here myself.
That will teach him.
Should I stay here and
marry such a man too?
Do you need help?
Thank you. Come and see mom.
Are you getting used to it a bit?
- I'm fine.
I turned off the stove.
Just pour the coffee.
Be quiet, don't make your mother wake up.
Lying in bed all the time is not good.
All that worrying only makes her sicker.
Hasan can go to hell.
- His cock can go to hell.
You shouldn't say that.
They say Samet has
done something to Hasan.
Then they probably
wouldn't have released him.
That monster.
God knows what he told them.
You were there too. What did he say?
Samet? - Yes.
Not much.
He said he didn't do anything to him.
Thank's sweetheart.
You want so much to blame someone.
That will cost you
dearly in the afterlife.
A slumbering darkness.
Here.
There is a path going down.
It's like a black hole.
A hand is visible. Look here.
The hand is extended to you.
God forbid, I see a funeral.
There is a tall, dark man.
He has a...
very long tail, like a rat.
It seems he has evil plans.
He's watching you from afar.
And that's you.
You can be seen from behind.
You carry...
a heavy burden with you.
It's pitch dark.
You keep it all to yourself.
Go away.
I have lit the stove. I got some wood.
Have you lit the stove?
I came to see if you were okay.
The door opened like this.
You didn't get the heater on, did you?
Now it's nice and warm.
Have you gone crazy?
You just snuck in. - Not true.
Samet, what is it? - Welcome.
What are you doing here?
I am talking to you.
What are you doing here?
- Mind your own business, Ahmet.
What did you do with Hasan? Where is he?
Calm. - Ahmet, stop.
Samet, what are you doing here?
Can I have a pack of cigarettes?
Do I have something on you?
Do you want to fight?
Do I have something on you? - Stop.
Do you want to fight? - Stop.
Samet, you always cause trouble.
He just stood there.
He can't come. He is suspected.
Come with me. - Let's see your face.
Go on, boy.
Madam nurse.
Is everything all right? I was worried.
I'm fine.
You were mad at me,
but I just wanted to help.
Okay.
Hasan.
Hasan.
Hikmet, what are you doing?
I heard something.
I thought it was a bear.
Did you see something? - No, but...
Then why are you shooting?
It's not a toy.
Take that gun away from him.
We better go back.
Soon we will end up as bear food.
From here it's kinda... I don't know.
- There's nothing to be afraid of.
Come on, walk on.
Sir. - What?
You didn't let Samet come with you,
but maybe we should call him anyway.
He knows the woods like the back of
his hand and can track down animals.
He got that from his father.
Shall I call him?
Keep that fool away from us.
He's up to something, sir.
I'm sure he's behind it.
- I'll pick you up soon.
Don't interfere with my work.
That man is a suspect.
He cannot be trusted.
Because he's a suspect, we
don't know if he'll help or hinder us.
Do not get me wrong.
- Then you tell us where to go.
You're good at tracking, right?
We'll follow you.
We're going to take a break.
I had never experienced
such food poisoning.
I saw chickens on TV and it made me sick.
I thought: Akif, you are
becoming a vegetarian.
Akif, you mess. - How stupid.
Only some foam has run out.
I prefer coffee without foam.
Have you spoken to the doctor?
- Yes, we solved it.
Thank you. - Enjoy it.
I heard there's something
wrong with your car.
For a place like this,
that car isn't good enough.
May he come back soon and
this child gets her father back.
I have to do some shopping.
You have to take me by car.
Is it far? - No, it's close.
My feet can't carry me anymore.
Before, I climbed like a goat.
We're going to get the keys.
Hasan.
Hasan.
Look. That's what a bear did.
Those are claw marks.
Not true. How did you come up with that?
This way.
Village chief, this way.
We're going to look at the stream.
The snow is soft. You should
not go there with too many people.
You see if there's a bear around.
That's why you're here.
We work systematically.
Mind your own business. - Let's go.
They belong to a bear.
He dragged someone along.
Paw prints. - Bear footprints.
Go look.
There's nothing here.
- Nothing? You walked on it.
Samet, come and have a look.
You know so much about it, don't you?
I don't see anything, sir.
Okay.
Gentlemen, it's getting late. We'll
go back and then we'll see later.
This also happened when I was little.
Samet's father Osman cut
down the old tree in his yard.
They said it was a sacred
tree, but he didn't listen.
When he woke up the next day,
the tree was sprouting everywhere.
You will soon see. It's a God's miracle.
A few days later, a bear attacked him.
He had a claw mark on his face.
That winter exactly the same thing happened.
The crops froze and the cattle died.
Hasan has done the same.
He killed an innocent bear.
He has brought himself
and the village into trouble.
Tie this up, honey.
Dear Lord, You are mighty.
You give us spring and winter.
You give us life. - I'll be right back.
And you take it away from us again.
Have mercy on us, sinners.
Bring back the sun and drive out the cold.
Give the soil new life.
Miss nurse?
Were you looking for me?
I'll make tea. - No thanks.
Let's drink tea. - I don't want tea.
What is? I do not understand.
Do you want to tell me something?
What were you doing there that night?
Who were you waiting for?
That's my daughter. She is in Ankara.
The youth no longer stays here.
You used to have three coffee
houses here, full of people.
Now there is no one left.
The people move to
the city or the afterlife.
Refik. Come eat something.
Dad, were you asleep?
No darling. Why are you calling so late?
Nothing wrong.
I just wanted to hear your voice.
I was shocked.
I thought something was up.
No, it's fine. How is Mom doing?
Good. She's worried about
you, but otherwise you're fine.
She sleeps. I hang up.
I don't want to wake her up.
Call her in the morning, okay?
I'll talk to you tomorrow.
Sleep well. - Best.
Brother Mahmut.
Brother Mahmut.
Can't you hear me?
I'm going to search. - Don't, Samet.
I don't know what you
did, but keep me out of it.
Did you bring this?
What is this about?
I saw you that night.
You didn't do it on purpose.
I have arranged it. Do not worry.
What have you arranged?
What have you arranged? Answer.
What have you done?
You're just like the rest.
They always blame someone else.
They never wonder what
they themselves have done.
That is not good.
But do not worry. I have arranged it.
He was already frozen.
We're going to the gendarmerie. We're going
to tell them everything. Come with me.
Why? You should have told
them that day, but you didn't.
When he was alive, he
was of no use to anyone...
and dead he is still a burden to me.
Hasan rolled off the mountain drunk.
The bears got him.
Must be the brother of the bear
he killed. The animal retaliated.
That's how it is in nature.
Let's go!
UNTIL THE ENDLESS WINTER HAS ENDED...
Hello. Is Akeken straight ahead?
- You took the wrong turn.
The road is closed. You must go back.
Did you see a big tree?
You must have the turn at that tree.
Then I'll turn around here.
- That doesn't work here. Further on, yes.
Okay thanks.
I just wanted to go back.
I can show you the way.
Are you going to Akceken?
- I am from Akeken.
Please. Thank you. That's nice.
This is a difficult time. When the snow
is gone, you can see paradise below.
No, this is fine.
That must have been an unexpected accident.
We can have it made in the village.
This is fine for now, but would
you like to fasten the side?
Yes there.
I'll have it repaired.
Stay seated.
Stay put, madam nurse.
Welcome. - Hello.
I am Mahmut, the village chief.
- Nice to meet you.
Would you like to bring in your
belongings and get some rest?
Please. - Akif, boy.
Akif works for the village. If you
need anything, you should come to him.
Feeling hungry? - No, thank you.
No baklava either?
- No, I'm going to the health center.
Good. Shut up, it's cold.
Samet, you forgot your pockets.
Thank you.
You are one to me.
Come on in.
This house has been empty for a long time.
This is the kitchen. Everything is there.
Plates and stuff. Let me
know if you need anything else.
When did you say the doctor is coming?
- The doctor?
It's coming soon.
He normally comes on Tuesdays.
They say he got stranded
in the next village. In Sopan.
The road to opan is even
worse than the one to here.
He's blocked. But it will open
again. I can give you his numbers.
Okay, I'll talk to him.
Make yourself at home.
It's clean here, don't worry.
I change and then go to the
health center. Thank you Akif.
I'm going to get the rest of your things.
- I'll do that myself.
All right then.
Just tell me if you need anything.
Welcome again. Have a nice day.
Everything is fine, mom.
I've installed myself.
Give daddy.
- I don't know if he wants to talk to you.
Still not? - He told you not to go.
Give him. - Ahmet, Asli on the phone.
And you shouldn't be so stubborn.
Who cares that this is
your mandatory service?
He can get you transferred.
I'm here now and I'm not
going to change my mind.
Then you just have to know for yourself.
You are a loner.
How are you supposed to survive there
on your own? You can work here, too.
I haven't slept in days. - Please, mom.
He won't talk to you if
you're being so stubborn.
Tell him I got that from him too.
I'll call again. Lots of love.
- I talk to you soon. Best.
Those blood pressure
meds don't work for a meter.
It feels like a cow is
sitting on my chest.
And how are you now?
- I'm checking that now.
Check it out, honey.
I am glad you are here.
Are your parents still alive?
- Yes sir. Don't talk for a while, okay?
Do you have children?
You're all right. Just keep
taking the doctor's meds.
He'll examine you when he gets back.
- Those drugs don't work at all.
Welcome. - Hello.
Congratulations. - Thank you.
The doctor prescribed these pills.
They came from the city.
He's not here now. Can
you tell me how to take them?
But you shouldn't have come. You
should have sent someone to ask.
I'm sure the doctor
told you to stay in bed.
I will examine you. You're done.
Just come back for an investigation.
Come. - Tell me how to take them.
I'll come when the doctor comes back.
I'm in a hurry.
I will examine you. Maybe he
won't come all week in this weather.
This way.
Are you in pain? - No.
Did you bleed?
A little.
When? - Yesterday. But not that much.
I'm sure the doctor said the baby
is in danger if you don't stay in bed.
You are only allowed to get
up to go to the toilet and stuff.
Take one pill after
breakfast and one before bed.
You have to stay in bed, okay?
- Thank you.
Have a nice day. - Thank you. You too.
Mr. Refik, shall I take you home?
The US president wants to
withdraw from the climate agreement...
erif, make me a fresh cup of tea.
America will eventually have to eat fuel.
God gives you something
and takes away something else.
Listen up. Can't you hear me?
This tea is ice cold.
And give Samet some too.
Do you want tea, boy?
Mahmut, he should have left
those bags outside. They stink.
No more bones for you.
Not even if you pay for it.
A bear would have dug up a corpse...
erif, turn that thing down a bit.
The panic-mongering.
They went there the next day and
the body was no longer in the tomb.
Traces of claws were visible.
He dug up that body.
They'll be here soon.
Little Niyazi Alarca says he saw one.
Many people have seen one.
Those beasts must be hungry.
May God protect our children.
I've always said it.
Now they dig up the dead
and soon they will attack us.
God forbid.
Do I really smell like meat?
- Yes, a little bit.
No, boy, that was a joke.
Hopefully the nurse didn't mind.
There is a new cemetery
at the hill, Hasene.
You can bury me there.
I don't like the old cemetery.
It's so dark.
That new cemetery is better.
Lots of daylight and a nice view.
All right, Refik, hurry up then.
Those graves will be gone in no time.
Good Lord.
This is dinner for tonight.
And put this around your neck.
Otherwise the cold
will still enter your lungs.
Normally the snow is now gone
and green can be seen again.
It feels like God is
leaving us out in the cold.
Forgive me, God.
Hasene. This is her mandatory service.
Naturally. No one would
come here if it wasn't mandatory.
That fat nurse was gone in no time.
It is very nicely knitted. Thank you.
Apparently his father
was also a half-wit.
He would prefer to sleep with the animals.
But a man is a man and
a beast is a beast, right?
Right, boy? Look.
Welcome.
Welcome, madam nurse.
What would you like?
Some minced meat please.
Is 300 grams enough? - Yes.
I told you to rest.
Who should do all the work then?
Who rests without having worked...
They say the roads will soon be blocked.
If you have a bleeding,
you cannot go to the hospital.
Madam nurse.
You're welcome here, but
you're talking us down the drain.
How so?
When the doctor comes
back, we'll figure out what to do.
You don't have to
bother people for nothing.
The doctor will say the same.
The doctor can't come in this weather.
He won't be back for a few weeks.
Ahmet, what are you standing there for?
Get out.
Madam Nurse, the people
of this village are tough.
You are new here.
You don't know much yet.
Go to work. We'll be fine.
I'm doing my job. - Hasan, enough.
I'm fine. I know how I feel myself.
Do not you worry. I'll be fine.
Nice day.
Would you like to open the door?
Then we stick it here.
Didn't I say I'd take care of it?
That was not necessary.
I don't even drive it.
It will remain in place until
the window is replaced.
Just let me know if you
need any firewood or anything.
I can use that.
Just let me know what it costs.
No. You don't owe me anything.
Thank you. - You too.
MINISTRY OF PUBLIC HEALTH
HEALTH CENTER AKEKEN
What a rotten weather. You
have come here at the worst time.
I am Hayri. - Hello.
The villagers are used to it, but we...
- It's very cold.
I know it's late, but would
you look at my hand?
What happened? - A bat.
A bat?
I don't know if he bit or scratched me.
Come on, I'll take a look inside.
Sorry to bother you with it.
- No problem.
The barracks are full of those beasts.
They should hibernate.
Instead, they destroy state property.
We found their nest.
But then they did this.
I thought there were no bats now.
This is a strange place.
I mean, with all those
people and animals here.
Can I sit down? - Yes of course.
They are stubborn.
But once you get used to it, it's fine.
I had trouble with it
in the beginning too.
They say the roads are getting
blocked. What if there's an emergency?
They say so much.
The upper road is sometimes closed.
- Would you put it here?
But it takes a lot of
snow to block our way.
And that will take a few days at the most.
It's a nice village.
I do all sorts of things here. Maybe
I'll write a book about it someday.
The diary of a gendarmerie commander:
The Revenge of the Bats.
But who would want to read that?
Why wouldn't people read it?
I'm curious how it ends.
Nice. Then I have at least one reader.
But it's about the end.
Bat-bitten Hayri goes to his
cold room at the barracks...
eat dry beans from yesterday
and dream of a warm future.
End.
Is there a supermarket near here?
There is one near the mosque.
But don't go there now.
They say bears roam.
No problem.
I wanted to study archeology...
but fate decreed otherwise.
I became a bat exterminator here.
Anyway, this is a nice village.
Do I really need an injection?
- I'll give one just in case.
Mahmut, listen up.
Pass the bread.
Hasan. Can't you hear me?
Pass the bread.
You've been drinking a lot again.
What's wrong?
How did that thing end?
How is your wife?
Please don't bring up Cemile.
- I'm talking about that other woman.
I stopped doing that. Real.
I promised Cemile that. I said
we're leaving here after the winter.
Gossip is still going on.
Come on, you're not going anywhere.
You let that woman bully you.
Cemile is behind this, isn't she?
- Of course not.
Come on.
I'm tired of this place.
I'm really up to here, Mahmut.
No one supported me when I
got that fine. Neither do you.
I risked my life to
protect their children.
They are ungrateful.
They are all ungrateful.
Samet, come in.
What?
Are you doing this on purpose?
You don't mean this, do you?
I'm going. This is no use. - Samet...
I was wondering why you
invited me all of a sudden.
Hasan, shut up. Samet, sit down.
I have invited you.
It's been nice.
We're going to talk this out tonight.
Hasan, Samet's father
asked me to watch him.
And you are like a brother to me.
- Mahmut, it's not my fault, is it?
He reported me. Traitor.
That bear tried to get into my shed.
And then I killed him. Did
you say that to the government?
Hasan. It's not allowed by law.
There is a fine.
It is prohibited by law.
So if the law allowed you
to kill them all, would you?
So a bear's life is worth nothing?
Did God make him so we could kill him?
He shot and killed a bear
that was caught in a trap. Killer.
Have you gone crazy?
What kind of life is he talking about?
I didn't shoot anyone.
Do you think you understand everything?
Am I stupid sometimes? You keep spinning.
Hasan, shut up.
- He doesn't know what he's talking about.
The people were in danger.
Thanks to you I got fined.
They should have rewarded me.
Sample. - Watch your language.
You keep taking those
bones and stuff to the woods.
If that other bear gets hungry
and comes to the village...
I'll shoot him right away.
Do you hear what I say?
Then I immediately shoot him down.
Samet, don't. Don't, dude.
Samet. - Monster.
You ruined the evening.
I'm really tired of this place.
The snow, the winter, the
bears and the monsters.
And the people. I'm sick of it.
Hello. A pack of cigarettes, please.
Thank you. Where are the oranges?
Madam nurse.
What are you doing here so late?
This weather makes you fearless.
I am talking to you.
Stop. What do you want?
You just say what you
want and you rant at people.
And you don't listen when we talk.
Do you think we're retarded?
Do you think I can't
take care of my wife?
I am talking to you. - Don't touch me.
Stupid drunk. Maniac.
Maniac.
mer's eyebrow is open. You
must come to the health center.
Good. I'll be right there.
BUTCHERY
Run. come. - Wait for me.
Thank you. Omer, pay attention.
Soon your other eyebrow will also be open.
How is your mother?
- She's sad again because of daddy.
He can drop dead. All men are
the same. They run after their dick.
That's all you can talk about, right?
Ali. - Well done, Hamiyet.
Am I sometimes lying? Stop it, girl.
Omer, we're going home.
Hello.
What is? - Nothing.
How are you? Everthing allright?
- Sure.
With you? - Good.
I brought some wood.
I put a tarp over it.
Thank you. What do I owe you?
- You don't owe me anything.
Madam nurse.
Madam nurse, we were looking for you.
Cemile is not feeling well.
And Hasan is gone again.
Can you come and have a look?
- Naturally. I'll be right there.
Samet. What are you doing here?
- Nothing.
You don't have to shut down. I will stay here.
- Fine.
Good luck. - Thank you.
Carefully. Watch the ice.
Come in, Miss Nurse. Here it is.
Just keep walking.
Come on in. Cemile isn't feeling
well and I didn't know what to do.
Welcome. They let you come for nothing.
That's okay, Cemile. I'll examine you.
I've already told them
there's nothing wrong.
I'm fine. I was dizzy.
Now it's okay again.
Roll up your sleeve.
Have you taken your meds? - Yes.
Have you had any bleeding? - No.
Have a look.
Just raise your arm.
Your blood pressure is now normal.
But you have to stay in bed.
Mahmut. You should go find Hasan
instead of bothering me for nothing.
Dear God, give me some patience.
Hello darling. Nothing wrong.
Your mother is fine.
What happened?
There's nothing wrong with me.
Ayten was worrying about nothing again.
You take better care of
Hasan than you do yourself.
And he got you pregnant again.
They saw him with that woman.
He'll be with her again.
Who saw him? - I heard that.
Didn't I tell him he
wouldn't keep his word?
We were going to leave
here too, weren't we?
I never believed him.
Go do the dishes. Hurry up. Now.
You shouldn't believe everything you hear.
- Come on.
What a big mouth.
She has become a stubborn know-it-all.
- Who would she get that from?
I'm not like that anymore. This
village will also put her in her place.
You're a chatterbox, Ayten.
Hasan promised me it's over.
But people need something to talk about.
Where can he be?
You have to stay in bed, okay? You
must call me if you are not feeling well.
Otherwise call. - God bless you.
Wait, I'll walk you home.
- That's not necessary. Its not far.
No, it's already late.
Mahmut. Go talk to the gendarmerie.
Go find Hasan.
Why were you drinking again last night?
I hope Hasan didn't freeze to death.
You should dress warmer.
You'll catch a cold soon.
The people don't know what to do.
The government protects the
bears, but this is no ordinary bear.
He's aggressive.
He has psychological problems.
This endless winter
has driven them all crazy.
They are no longer afraid of fire.
They are used to rattling cans.
Have they seen one recently?
- They say yes.
May God protect us. I'm terrified of it.
I encountered one as a child.
We looked straight at each
other and I was so scared I...
He looked at me and maybe he
kept walking because I was so small.
I still see him in my dreams.
What if Hasan...
Just imagine. God forbid.
We are almost there. Thank you.
Good evening. - Good evening.
You are not your picture.
Your photo belongs to my world.
I don't know you, but your picture does.
Maybe you'll destroy
all my beautiful feelings.
Your behavior stems from fear.
- Yes, fear that...
Madam nurse.
I was on my way to you.
What is?
I thought I heard something.
- Hopefully it's not a bear.
Why were you looking for me?
- Commander Hayri wants to see you.
Why? - He just said to get you.
Okay fine. Let's go.
Hasan the butcher has still not
been found and his phone is off.
He sometimes stays
away, but his wife is worried.
He and Samet have a disagreement.
The night before they had
been drinking and arguing.
No one has seen him since.
Why would I hurt him?
He says you saw him go
home. He had brought firewood.
I ran into Samet that
evening in the village square.
In the morning he came to bring that wood.
But I also saw Hasan on my way home.
He was drunk.
Could barely stand on his feet.
A lot of nonsense came out of him.
Commander, the bats have shit
all over the equipment. Apologies.
Our people clean it up,
but one of them got bitten.
Why are you laughing?
How dare you barge in here?
We are conducting an investigation.
Get out. - Yes sir.
They can't behave.
Let's hit the road. Come along too.
If you do not mind. - Fine.
Tell me where you last saw
him. Then we'll look there.
Samet, you can go.
But I'll keep an eye on you, okay?
It was about here.
Stop.
Sorry we've been a nuisance to you.
- Does not matter.
I'm going to the health center.
- Naturally. We'll take a look around.
We won't find anything,
but we'll do our best.
Good luck. - Thank you.
We split into two groups. You go down.
Carefully.
Hello. - With Dr. Kansu Grler.
Who am I speaking to? - With me, Asli.
Asli? - We have spoken eachother.
The nurse. How are you?
- Good. With you?
I couldn't reach Akif,
but the way here is open.
He has to bring some stuff.
- He's got food poisoning.
Then I will call the village chief.
Bring the meds to him.
I can bring them.
- It's not easy to get here.
It's hard to find. - I have a phone.
If something happens...
- What medicines should I bring?
Just hold on.
Akif is such a carefree boy.
He must be sleeping at home.
He has food poisoning.
Have you taken your medicines?
I take them alternately.
Then I have no headache one day
and normal blood pressure the next day.
I can tell from your blood pressure which
one you took. Keep taking the medicines.
It's good that the doctor ran away.
- He didn't run away, he got stranded.
Why would he run away?
- Of course he ran away.
I've never seen such a winter.
It's one big curse.
If I could, I'd run too.
This snow doesn't just melt.
What shame is underneath?
Say hello to Hasene. - I will do.
Hello people. Where are you going?
- Find Hasan.
Have you heard anything about him?
That too.
Are you following me or something?
I'm going to the forest.
Leave food for the animals.
Are you stuck?
Thank you for saying so, Samet.
Where are you going?
Hello? Hello.
You can walk to the village with me. Then
we take a shorter route through the forest.
A tractor can tow the car away.
I'll wait here. Just send someone
when you get there. Say it's urgent.
Do you want to wait here? - Yes.
How long will it take?
- Walking takes a while.
Is it very far? - A little.
Okay thanks.
Wait, I'm coming with you.
Did you get the wood?
Oh yes, thank you.
But the heater doesn't work very well.
Thank you. Thanks to you,
the commander let me go so fast.
No problem. I just said what I saw.
I'm blamed for everything.
I would have been in trouble
if you said you didn't see me.
I say it, but they don't understand.
There are no bears now.
They don't just wake up.
But they keep on talking about it.
Do you come here every day? To
keep them from coming to the village?
They only come when they are starving.
Those animals want nothing to do with us.
We only cause them problems.
They fear that Hasan
has been killed by a bear.
What?
My father often told this story.
When he was my age he met a bear.
He held his rifle to the bear's head.
The animal crouched.
He raised both hands.
Like he begged for his life.
My father said: He lifted up his
hands and begged like a man.
He didn't understand. He had
the gun and pulled the trigger.
"Click." The gun jammed.
The bear grabbed my father and hit him.
My father lost consciousness.
When he came to, the bear was gone.
He was covered in blood and
had a claw mark on his neck.
That scar was his trophy, he said.
The lesson he had learned.
The animal raised his hands and
said: Don't touch me, I have a life too.
He gave me a chance,
but I didn't take it.
I had a gun, so I pulled the trigger.
My father said: Before,
I blamed the bear...
but now I see that I was wrong.
Hello? - Hello, Dad?
Hello darling? Is your stubbornness over?
- And yours? I got that from you.
How is it going there?
- Do not worry. Fine.
Did my friend Sinan call you?
He's spoken to a high-ranking friend.
Why? - He'll get you transferred.
Who told you to do that?
- That's fine with a mandatory service.
He can transfer you. - How?
What do you care? He arranges it.
- I didn't ask for it.
Why didn't you ask?
You make us miserable.
Your mother misses you.
I miss you guys too, but...
- It feels like you ran away.
I'm not coming. It's fine here.
- Whatever you want, Asli.
Hello?
Is there any news about him?
- No, we can't find him.
AKEKEN GENDARMERIE BARS
Here. - Okay, don't worry.
I know where he is.
I'll get him towed away.
You shouldn't have walked.
That weird Samet can't be trusted.
Thanks again. - Be careful.
What are they called?
- This is Hayriye and that is Pimaniye.
Did you call them that?
- Mama invented Hayriye.
How is your mother? - The same.
I said dad left her again.
And she's mad at me.
I never believed Dad. I'm not crazy.
He kept saying we
would leave in the spring.
I'll get out of here myself.
That will teach him.
Should I stay here and
marry such a man too?
Do you need help?
Thank you. Come and see mom.
Are you getting used to it a bit?
- I'm fine.
I turned off the stove.
Just pour the coffee.
Be quiet, don't make your mother wake up.
Lying in bed all the time is not good.
All that worrying only makes her sicker.
Hasan can go to hell.
- His cock can go to hell.
You shouldn't say that.
They say Samet has
done something to Hasan.
Then they probably
wouldn't have released him.
That monster.
God knows what he told them.
You were there too. What did he say?
Samet? - Yes.
Not much.
He said he didn't do anything to him.
Thank's sweetheart.
You want so much to blame someone.
That will cost you
dearly in the afterlife.
A slumbering darkness.
Here.
There is a path going down.
It's like a black hole.
A hand is visible. Look here.
The hand is extended to you.
God forbid, I see a funeral.
There is a tall, dark man.
He has a...
very long tail, like a rat.
It seems he has evil plans.
He's watching you from afar.
And that's you.
You can be seen from behind.
You carry...
a heavy burden with you.
It's pitch dark.
You keep it all to yourself.
Go away.
I have lit the stove. I got some wood.
Have you lit the stove?
I came to see if you were okay.
The door opened like this.
You didn't get the heater on, did you?
Now it's nice and warm.
Have you gone crazy?
You just snuck in. - Not true.
Samet, what is it? - Welcome.
What are you doing here?
I am talking to you.
What are you doing here?
- Mind your own business, Ahmet.
What did you do with Hasan? Where is he?
Calm. - Ahmet, stop.
Samet, what are you doing here?
Can I have a pack of cigarettes?
Do I have something on you?
Do you want to fight?
Do I have something on you? - Stop.
Do you want to fight? - Stop.
Samet, you always cause trouble.
He just stood there.
He can't come. He is suspected.
Come with me. - Let's see your face.
Go on, boy.
Madam nurse.
Is everything all right? I was worried.
I'm fine.
You were mad at me,
but I just wanted to help.
Okay.
Hasan.
Hasan.
Hikmet, what are you doing?
I heard something.
I thought it was a bear.
Did you see something? - No, but...
Then why are you shooting?
It's not a toy.
Take that gun away from him.
We better go back.
Soon we will end up as bear food.
From here it's kinda... I don't know.
- There's nothing to be afraid of.
Come on, walk on.
Sir. - What?
You didn't let Samet come with you,
but maybe we should call him anyway.
He knows the woods like the back of
his hand and can track down animals.
He got that from his father.
Shall I call him?
Keep that fool away from us.
He's up to something, sir.
I'm sure he's behind it.
- I'll pick you up soon.
Don't interfere with my work.
That man is a suspect.
He cannot be trusted.
Because he's a suspect, we
don't know if he'll help or hinder us.
Do not get me wrong.
- Then you tell us where to go.
You're good at tracking, right?
We'll follow you.
We're going to take a break.
I had never experienced
such food poisoning.
I saw chickens on TV and it made me sick.
I thought: Akif, you are
becoming a vegetarian.
Akif, you mess. - How stupid.
Only some foam has run out.
I prefer coffee without foam.
Have you spoken to the doctor?
- Yes, we solved it.
Thank you. - Enjoy it.
I heard there's something
wrong with your car.
For a place like this,
that car isn't good enough.
May he come back soon and
this child gets her father back.
I have to do some shopping.
You have to take me by car.
Is it far? - No, it's close.
My feet can't carry me anymore.
Before, I climbed like a goat.
We're going to get the keys.
Hasan.
Hasan.
Look. That's what a bear did.
Those are claw marks.
Not true. How did you come up with that?
This way.
Village chief, this way.
We're going to look at the stream.
The snow is soft. You should
not go there with too many people.
You see if there's a bear around.
That's why you're here.
We work systematically.
Mind your own business. - Let's go.
They belong to a bear.
He dragged someone along.
Paw prints. - Bear footprints.
Go look.
There's nothing here.
- Nothing? You walked on it.
Samet, come and have a look.
You know so much about it, don't you?
I don't see anything, sir.
Okay.
Gentlemen, it's getting late. We'll
go back and then we'll see later.
This also happened when I was little.
Samet's father Osman cut
down the old tree in his yard.
They said it was a sacred
tree, but he didn't listen.
When he woke up the next day,
the tree was sprouting everywhere.
You will soon see. It's a God's miracle.
A few days later, a bear attacked him.
He had a claw mark on his face.
That winter exactly the same thing happened.
The crops froze and the cattle died.
Hasan has done the same.
He killed an innocent bear.
He has brought himself
and the village into trouble.
Tie this up, honey.
Dear Lord, You are mighty.
You give us spring and winter.
You give us life. - I'll be right back.
And you take it away from us again.
Have mercy on us, sinners.
Bring back the sun and drive out the cold.
Give the soil new life.
Miss nurse?
Were you looking for me?
I'll make tea. - No thanks.
Let's drink tea. - I don't want tea.
What is? I do not understand.
Do you want to tell me something?
What were you doing there that night?
Who were you waiting for?
That's my daughter. She is in Ankara.
The youth no longer stays here.
You used to have three coffee
houses here, full of people.
Now there is no one left.
The people move to
the city or the afterlife.
Refik. Come eat something.
Dad, were you asleep?
No darling. Why are you calling so late?
Nothing wrong.
I just wanted to hear your voice.
I was shocked.
I thought something was up.
No, it's fine. How is Mom doing?
Good. She's worried about
you, but otherwise you're fine.
She sleeps. I hang up.
I don't want to wake her up.
Call her in the morning, okay?
I'll talk to you tomorrow.
Sleep well. - Best.
Brother Mahmut.
Brother Mahmut.
Can't you hear me?
I'm going to search. - Don't, Samet.
I don't know what you
did, but keep me out of it.
Did you bring this?
What is this about?
I saw you that night.
You didn't do it on purpose.
I have arranged it. Do not worry.
What have you arranged?
What have you arranged? Answer.
What have you done?
You're just like the rest.
They always blame someone else.
They never wonder what
they themselves have done.
That is not good.
But do not worry. I have arranged it.
He was already frozen.
We're going to the gendarmerie. We're going
to tell them everything. Come with me.
Why? You should have told
them that day, but you didn't.
When he was alive, he
was of no use to anyone...
and dead he is still a burden to me.
Hasan rolled off the mountain drunk.
The bears got him.
Must be the brother of the bear
he killed. The animal retaliated.
That's how it is in nature.
Let's go!
