A fami­ly is coming apart: unem­ploy­ed actor Samir just wants to be left alo­ne; his wife Fidan thinks about taking on a job in Berlin and their son Mahmud just wants to get as far away from his par­ents as pos­si­ble. But then a dra­ma­tic inci­dent during a trip to the beach unco­vers the fami­ly’s weak spots pain­ful­ly. The film mas­terful­ly navi­ga­tes bet­ween the­se three cha­rac­ters and por­traits them as both stran­gers and accom­pli­ces at the same time. Cologne-based direc­tor Elmar Imanov’s film recei­ved the FIPRESCI Critics Award at this year’s International Film Festival in Rotterdam.
