1
00:03:37,302 --> 00:03:42,134
ABOUT DRY GRASSES

2
00:03:47,052 --> 00:03:48,509
Here.

3
00:03:49,177 --> 00:03:50,926
This is for you.

4
00:03:51,718 --> 00:03:54,259
Thanks. What is it?

5
00:03:54,593 --> 00:03:56,175
The olive oil you liked.

6
00:03:56,260 --> 00:03:58,842
- From the farm?
- Yes, cold pressed.

7
00:03:59,218 --> 00:04:00,634
Thanks.

8
00:04:01,468 --> 00:04:03,884
Did you go anywhere on holiday?

9
00:04:04,010 --> 00:04:06,134
No. How could I?

10
00:04:07,343 --> 00:04:09,176
Lots of trouble at the village.

11
00:04:09,302 --> 00:04:11,426
My dad got worse again.

12
00:04:12,093 --> 00:04:13,592
Hospital and injections.

13
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,259
With my mother it’s another story.
She’s all upset.

14
00:04:17,385 --> 00:04:18,426
About what?

15
00:04:18,552 --> 00:04:20,634
Because I’m not married.

16
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,967
Same old story.

17
00:04:23,135 --> 00:04:25,676
But she’s really out of control now.

18
00:04:25,802 --> 00:04:28,134
Sulking, cross. Even got sick.

19
00:04:28,260 --> 00:04:29,466
Really?

20
00:04:29,552 --> 00:04:31,925
Spent holiday in bed because of that.

21
00:04:32,052 --> 00:04:36,134
As if there was a decent girl
and I didn’t like her!

22
00:04:37,093 --> 00:04:40,426
Be careful, they want to tax bachelors.

23
00:04:40,552 --> 00:04:41,967
Stop it.

24
00:04:42,177 --> 00:04:44,592
Believe me, my holiday was exhausting.

25
00:05:09,552 --> 00:05:11,717
- Welcome back, sir.
- Thanks.

26
00:05:11,843 --> 00:05:14,342
- Welcome back.
- Thanks, thanks.

27
00:05:17,927 --> 00:05:19,801
Cut it out, boy!

28
00:05:25,933 --> 00:05:27,898
- Good morning.
- Yeah, good morning.

29
00:05:28,024 --> 00:05:30,301
Well, well, well!

30
00:05:30,399 --> 00:05:32,426
The teacher of teachers, welcome!

31
00:05:32,552 --> 00:05:34,426
Hey, Nail, how’s things?

32
00:05:34,552 --> 00:05:35,426
Fine, fine.

33
00:05:35,552 --> 00:05:37,341
Came back to the coral, huh?

34
00:05:37,427 --> 00:05:39,467
Yeah, what else can you do?

35
00:05:39,593 --> 00:05:42,009
- Is everyone here?
- They are.

36
00:05:42,135 --> 00:05:43,842
- Hey, Samet!
- Yes?

37
00:05:43,968 --> 00:05:45,301
I got new chickens.

38
00:05:45,468 --> 00:05:47,926
From now on, you can get eggs from me.

39
00:05:48,052 --> 00:05:49,092
Okay, we’ll see.

40
00:05:49,218 --> 00:05:51,217
Tell the others, okay?

41
00:05:51,427 --> 00:05:52,842
Alright.

42
00:05:55,260 --> 00:05:56,217
Hi.

43
00:05:56,343 --> 00:05:58,216
Welcome back.

44
00:05:58,302 --> 00:06:00,384
Is this all of us?

45
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:04,634
We’re not enough for you, Samet?

46
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,466
With you here, how could it not be enough?

47
00:06:08,552 --> 00:06:09,967
Firdevs the Great!

48
00:06:10,093 --> 00:06:11,009
That’s right!

49
00:06:11,135 --> 00:06:15,217
Just don’t want to be the sucker
who showed up on time.

50
00:06:15,343 --> 00:06:17,384
No, everyone’s here.

51
00:06:18,010 --> 00:06:22,676
It was so hard for me to
get out of bed today.

52
00:06:22,843 --> 00:06:26,467
We get used to being lazy
so quickly, don’t we?

53
00:06:26,593 --> 00:06:29,009
- Right.
- Bekir isn’t here?

54
00:06:29,177 --> 00:06:31,466
Hofe’s in his office. Had breakfast?

55
00:06:31,552 --> 00:06:34,426
I haven’t
and probably won’t.

56
00:06:35,218 --> 00:06:37,633
If Firdevs isn’t eating, me neither.

57
00:06:37,718 --> 00:06:39,301
She knows why.

58
00:06:39,427 --> 00:06:43,259
Stop teasing me. Give me the other one, Nail.

59
00:06:43,385 --> 00:06:45,259
- Try the honey.
- From your home town?

60
00:06:45,385 --> 00:06:46,925
My brother’s hives.

61
00:06:47,010 --> 00:06:49,509
- Morning all. Bon appétit.
- Good morning.

62
00:06:49,635 --> 00:06:53,801
There’s a cigarette butt in my cup.
Nail, what the hell?

63
00:06:53,927 --> 00:06:56,463
Must be the plumbers during the holidays.

64
00:06:56,589 --> 00:06:58,345
Had I seen, I’d have stopped them.

65
00:06:58,469 --> 00:07:00,217
That’s outrageous.

66
00:07:00,427 --> 00:07:04,009
They even took the broken taps with them!

67
00:07:04,135 --> 00:07:04,841
Outrageous.

68
00:07:04,927 --> 00:07:07,384
Come sit down. The food’s almost gone.

69
00:07:07,510 --> 00:07:09,800
- Here’s your tea.
- Thank you.

70
00:07:09,885 --> 00:07:12,759
Nail says he has eggs. Did he tell you too?

71
00:07:12,927 --> 00:07:16,176
What’s up, Samet?
Are you getting a commission?

72
00:07:16,427 --> 00:07:19,467
This job doesn’t pay enough.
What else can I do?

73
00:07:19,677 --> 00:07:22,300
His kid’s away at high school. He needs help.

74
00:07:22,385 --> 00:07:26,884
Sorry, I can’t eat this local stuff anymore.

75
00:07:27,010 --> 00:07:29,926
You buy perfume from peddlers. Why not eggs?

76
00:07:30,052 --> 00:07:31,551
What do you mean?

77
00:07:31,802 --> 00:07:33,966
The perfumes were originals.

78
00:07:34,052 --> 00:07:36,676
I swear. They really were.

79
00:07:36,885 --> 00:07:40,175
I checked the internet.
I would never buy fakes.

80
00:07:40,260 --> 00:07:41,384
I checked too.

81
00:07:41,510 --> 00:07:43,967
They sell things left behind at airports.

82
00:07:44,135 --> 00:07:47,051
So they’re originals.

83
00:07:47,885 --> 00:07:51,759
When did you find all this stuff out, Kenan?

84
00:07:51,885 --> 00:07:53,800
The guy wasn’t lying.

85
00:07:53,885 --> 00:07:57,384
What’s he doing with original perfumes
out here in nowhere?

86
00:07:57,510 --> 00:08:00,092
- Doesn’t sound right to me.
- Why not?

87
00:08:00,218 --> 00:08:01,883
His tracksuits were fake.

88
00:08:01,968 --> 00:08:03,759
But he told us they were fake.

89
00:08:03,927 --> 00:08:06,884
Only after he found out I’m a sports teacher.

90
00:08:07,052 --> 00:08:09,842
How could he know you’re a sports teacher?

91
00:08:09,968 --> 00:08:13,383
Because he saw me in a tracksuit.

92
00:08:13,468 --> 00:08:17,176
Why would he hide it?
He can sell tracksuits too.

93
00:08:17,302 --> 00:08:20,342
The man showed a little honesty

94
00:08:20,468 --> 00:08:23,176
to make you believe a bigger lie.

95
00:08:23,302 --> 00:08:24,800
A tracksuit counts.

96
00:08:24,885 --> 00:08:27,509
- How do you know?
- Well, how do you know?

97
00:08:27,635 --> 00:08:29,801
Alright, it’s original.

98
00:08:29,927 --> 00:08:33,341
It was original. I get allergies otherwise.

99
00:08:33,427 --> 00:08:35,884
Morning. That’s quite a spread.

100
00:08:36,010 --> 00:08:37,092
Who prepared these?

101
00:08:37,218 --> 00:08:38,926
Kevser did, bless her.

102
00:08:39,052 --> 00:08:40,716
What about the schedule?

103
00:08:40,802 --> 00:08:42,926
Bekir’s preparing it now.

104
00:08:43,052 --> 00:08:44,801
He’ll be here soon.

105
00:08:44,927 --> 00:08:47,509
Take your old classes again for today.

106
00:08:47,843 --> 00:08:49,217
Here’s notebooks.

107
00:08:49,343 --> 00:08:51,134
Then we’ll see.

108
00:08:59,427 --> 00:09:01,926
Very funny. But you didn’t scare me.

109
00:09:02,093 --> 00:09:04,134
You’re lying. I saw you flinch.

110
00:09:04,260 --> 00:09:06,009
Me, flinch?

111
00:09:06,135 --> 00:09:07,633
You shrunk back.

112
00:09:07,718 --> 00:09:09,883
That’s not fear.

113
00:09:10,009 --> 00:09:12,301
That’s just a reflex.

114
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,134
It’s the same, sir.

115
00:09:14,260 --> 00:09:16,509
Alright, have it your way.

116
00:09:17,302 --> 00:09:19,467
Here, this is for you.

117
00:09:20,177 --> 00:09:22,634
It’s heavy. I nearly threw it away.

118
00:09:22,885 --> 00:09:24,592
Oh, so beautiful.

119
00:09:24,718 --> 00:09:27,092
- You like it?
- A mirror!

120
00:09:27,260 --> 00:09:29,383
Look at it later at home.

121
00:09:29,468 --> 00:09:31,176
Thanks very much.

122
00:09:31,385 --> 00:09:33,591
Don’t worry, I won’t show anyone.

123
00:09:33,677 --> 00:09:35,509
Sir.

124
00:09:35,968 --> 00:09:39,426
You said you had an extra bedstead

125
00:09:39,552 --> 00:09:41,926
that you wanted to give away.

126
00:09:42,177 --> 00:09:43,759
- You still have it?
- Yes.

127
00:09:43,927 --> 00:09:45,634
I know someone who needs it.

128
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:46,842
Who?

129
00:09:46,968 --> 00:09:48,467
Emirhan in the 8th grade.

130
00:09:48,593 --> 00:09:50,300
It’s in the basement.

131
00:09:50,385 --> 00:09:52,634
But let me check first. Okay?

132
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,217
Now off to class.

133
00:09:56,718 --> 00:09:58,342
The teacher’s here.

134
00:09:58,510 --> 00:10:00,176
Come on, sit down.

135
00:10:02,052 --> 00:10:04,884
Right, enough. Everyone sit down.

136
00:10:05,802 --> 00:10:09,259
Don’t throw the markers on the floor.
Pick them up.

137
00:10:09,510 --> 00:10:12,634
They keep getting lost. Put their caps on.

138
00:10:13,968 --> 00:10:15,509
Sit down.

139
00:10:17,427 --> 00:10:18,842
Holiday’s over.

140
00:10:18,968 --> 00:10:21,009
Yes, sir, it’s over.

141
00:10:21,843 --> 00:10:22,967
How was it?

142
00:10:23,093 --> 00:10:24,259
Good.

143
00:10:24,385 --> 00:10:26,134
Mine wasn’t.

144
00:10:26,968 --> 00:10:29,301
Did you miss school?

145
00:10:32,718 --> 00:10:34,634
Hey, what’s going on?

146
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:36,592
Holiday’s over.

147
00:10:37,135 --> 00:10:38,467
It’s a new semester.

148
00:10:38,593 --> 00:10:41,341
- Yes.
- I’m your class teacher again.

149
00:10:41,427 --> 00:10:42,383
Okay.

150
00:10:42,468 --> 00:10:44,967
If you have any problems, come to me.

151
00:10:45,093 --> 00:10:46,342
Alright.

152
00:10:46,641 --> 00:10:49,607
But not for nonsense,
like “my friend hit me”, okay?

153
00:10:49,739 --> 00:10:51,883
But sir, he keeps kicking me.

154
00:10:51,968 --> 00:10:53,342
He won’t anymore.

155
00:10:53,468 --> 00:10:55,092
But he does.

156
00:11:06,927 --> 00:11:08,508
Welcome back.

157
00:11:08,593 --> 00:11:10,717
Come on, I’m gonna see Vahit.

158
00:11:12,885 --> 00:11:14,926
I tried calling
over the holidays.

159
00:11:15,052 --> 00:11:17,259
They cut my phone
cause of the bill.

160
00:11:17,385 --> 00:11:19,342
Don’t need it anyway.

161
00:11:19,677 --> 00:11:22,717
I can’t even pay you back yet,
but I will soon.

162
00:11:22,885 --> 00:11:24,592
Forget it.

163
00:11:26,635 --> 00:11:28,216
And the security job?

164
00:11:28,302 --> 00:11:29,717
It was a bunch of lies.

165
00:11:30,093 --> 00:11:32,508
They’d rather get a dog than hire me.

166
00:11:32,593 --> 00:11:34,967
I was stupid to get my hopes up.

167
00:11:35,573 --> 00:11:38,426
They were right.
Why hire a terrorist like you?

168
00:11:38,593 --> 00:11:39,467
For sure.

169
00:11:39,635 --> 00:11:41,801
<i>Welcome back, teacher.</i>

170
00:11:42,427 --> 00:11:47,176
<i>Come, there’s tea brewing at headquarters.</i>

171
00:11:51,635 --> 00:11:53,967
But I’ll be gone soon anyhow.

172
00:11:54,260 --> 00:11:56,676
I might have a job in a nightclub.

173
00:11:56,802 --> 00:11:58,051
Where?

174
00:11:58,177 --> 00:11:59,592
In Varto.

175
00:12:00,385 --> 00:12:02,259
There’s a nightclub in Varto?

176
00:12:02,427 --> 00:12:05,134
- Good money?
- Whatever they pay is fine.

177
00:12:05,427 --> 00:12:07,467
Good thing I gave up smoking,

178
00:12:07,593 --> 00:12:11,467
or I’d be collecting
cigarette butts in the streets.

179
00:12:12,135 --> 00:12:15,592
You’re still in the twilight zone, then.

180
00:12:16,968 --> 00:12:18,384
Fine, go.

181
00:12:18,510 --> 00:12:20,634
I’ll come fucking visit.

182
00:12:21,975 --> 00:12:23,759
Where’ve you been,
motherfucker?

183
00:12:23,885 --> 00:12:26,884
Why would I come here
when it’s full of lowlifes?

184
00:12:27,010 --> 00:12:29,176
That was two hours ago.

185
00:12:29,718 --> 00:12:31,259
Asshole.

186
00:12:32,302 --> 00:12:34,134
Don’t piss me off.

187
00:12:34,968 --> 00:12:36,384
Seref, three teas.

188
00:12:36,510 --> 00:12:39,426
Forget tea. Fetch what’s behind the boxes.

189
00:12:39,843 --> 00:12:42,926
I’d fetch you a punch in the face,

190
00:12:43,093 --> 00:12:45,509
but it’d be rude to the teacher.

191
00:12:45,968 --> 00:12:47,383
Welcome, by the way.

192
00:12:47,468 --> 00:12:48,383
Thanks.

193
00:12:48,468 --> 00:12:50,259
I say to him,

194
00:12:50,427 --> 00:12:52,884
“I’ll pay you. Get those boxes down.”

195
00:12:53,010 --> 00:12:55,676
Say that when no one’s around, then.

196
00:12:56,010 --> 00:12:59,092
What are you talking about?

197
00:12:59,260 --> 00:13:02,092
Was I supposed to kick them out?

198
00:13:03,010 --> 00:13:06,676
Unbelievable, he can’t make it over here
in 20 minutes.

199
00:13:07,552 --> 00:13:11,092
When there’s whisky and stuff,

200
00:13:11,510 --> 00:13:12,717
he’s here in a sec.

201
00:13:12,843 --> 00:13:15,217
Stop going on and fucking bring it out.

202
00:13:15,385 --> 00:13:17,633
It’s gone. Finished.

203
00:13:17,718 --> 00:13:19,633
Shouldn’t have ordered
tea for me.

204
00:13:19,718 --> 00:13:22,509
Can’t go without having tea. No way.

205
00:13:22,635 --> 00:13:24,883
He’ll have tea at army headquarters.

206
00:13:24,968 --> 00:13:28,050
No way. I’m not going there.

207
00:13:28,135 --> 00:13:30,091
He can drink both here and there.

208
00:13:30,177 --> 00:13:32,217
We’re wine people.

209
00:13:32,343 --> 00:13:36,009
Forget about whisky.
It’s not for lefties like you.

210
00:13:36,677 --> 00:13:41,051
What’s this? Like a fairy chimney. Wow.

211
00:13:41,510 --> 00:13:44,758
But it’s all made in factories now.

212
00:13:44,843 --> 00:13:46,509
They say it tastes the same.

213
00:13:46,677 --> 00:13:49,634
- No problem. Wine’s wine.
- Fill it up.

214
00:13:49,802 --> 00:13:55,467
There’s a bunch of mangy dogs
around the school.

215
00:13:55,843 --> 00:13:57,801
Can’t we do something?

216
00:13:57,968 --> 00:14:00,717
They won’t harm the kids.

217
00:14:01,218 --> 00:14:03,591
I don’t mean the kids, but the dogs.

218
00:14:03,677 --> 00:14:06,259
Poor things. They scratch all day long.

219
00:14:06,385 --> 00:14:08,758
You see how people live here.

220
00:14:08,843 --> 00:14:12,217
How do you expect anyone to
care about the dogs

221
00:14:12,343 --> 00:14:14,301
when no one cares about people?

222
00:14:14,427 --> 00:14:15,925
That’s right, but...

223
00:14:16,010 --> 00:14:18,801
You start caring about every living thing,

224
00:14:18,968 --> 00:14:21,801
you won’t last long here, my friend.

225
00:14:37,927 --> 00:14:42,133
Did you always not give a fuck
or is it just now in the army?

226
00:14:42,218 --> 00:14:44,342
What do you mean, sir?

227
00:14:46,343 --> 00:14:50,250
Fill these out and
bring them back to me.

228
00:14:50,376 --> 00:14:51,439
- Okay?
- Yes, sir.

229
00:14:51,552 --> 00:14:54,367
If I’m not here, give them to
whoever’s in charge.

230
00:14:54,493 --> 00:14:55,908
Yes, sir.

231
00:14:56,468 --> 00:14:57,926
Well, Erdi?

232
00:14:58,218 --> 00:14:59,426
I put it here.

233
00:14:59,593 --> 00:15:01,717
Did I ask you that?

234
00:15:02,177 --> 00:15:04,050
Someone must’ve moved it.

235
00:15:04,135 --> 00:15:06,342
Did I ask you that?

236
00:15:06,802 --> 00:15:08,050
I don’t understand.

237
00:15:08,135 --> 00:15:10,008
Did I ask you that?

238
00:15:10,093 --> 00:15:14,259
Were you always a lazy fucker
or is it just now in the army?

239
00:15:15,177 --> 00:15:16,884
Maybe someone moved it.

240
00:15:17,010 --> 00:15:18,926
Answer my fucking question.

241
00:15:19,510 --> 00:15:21,342
Yes, sir, I always was.

242
00:15:21,510 --> 00:15:22,801
What were you, Erdi?

243
00:15:22,927 --> 00:15:24,591
A lazy fucker, sir.

244
00:15:24,677 --> 00:15:27,134
Good job, you told the truth. Go get us tea.

245
00:15:27,260 --> 00:15:28,801
Yes, sir.

246
00:15:29,177 --> 00:15:31,384
I love when a man tells the truth.

247
00:15:31,510 --> 00:15:33,801
Really. He’s a great kid.

248
00:15:35,718 --> 00:15:37,634
Welcome back again.

249
00:15:37,802 --> 00:15:40,592
Tell me what you’ve been up to. How was it?

250
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:44,676
It was nice to go home.
But it’s the same old routine.

251
00:15:44,802 --> 00:15:46,676
- Good.
- What about you?

252
00:15:46,843 --> 00:15:49,384
We don’t get holidays like you.

253
00:15:49,677 --> 00:15:52,342
We hang around here. We went to Erzurum once.

254
00:15:52,468 --> 00:15:55,092
The kids kept going on
about the shopping mall.

255
00:15:55,218 --> 00:15:57,384
Otherwise nothing.

256
00:15:57,718 --> 00:16:01,801
Hey, Berkcan, your thing is sorted.
I talked to them.

257
00:16:01,927 --> 00:16:04,217
Really? Thank you, sir.

258
00:16:04,385 --> 00:16:07,341
It wasn’t easy, but I managed it.

259
00:16:07,427 --> 00:16:09,591
Thank you, sir.
I appreciate it.

260
00:16:09,677 --> 00:16:12,301
Go on, carry on with your work.

261
00:16:12,885 --> 00:16:14,717
And shut the door.

262
00:16:17,968 --> 00:16:21,259
We have a female sergeant here, named Dilek.

263
00:16:21,427 --> 00:16:24,342
I think you’d be right for each other.

264
00:16:24,635 --> 00:16:26,384
Don’t laugh like that.

265
00:16:26,635 --> 00:16:28,300
I want to introduce you.

266
00:16:28,385 --> 00:16:29,592
No, no way.

267
00:16:29,718 --> 00:16:31,383
Why do you say no flat out?

268
00:16:31,468 --> 00:16:34,176
Meet her, get to know her, text her.

269
00:16:34,302 --> 00:16:36,801
If you don’t like her, no problem.

270
00:16:36,927 --> 00:16:39,009
Who knows, it could lead to marriage.

271
00:16:39,135 --> 00:16:42,509
What are you doing? I’m still young.

272
00:16:42,635 --> 00:16:44,592
Stop being so shy. Take action.

273
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:46,634
- I’m not shy.
- Wait a minute.

274
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,801
What are you doing? Stop it.

275
00:16:48,968 --> 00:16:51,509
Wait a minute. I’ll ask her to come.

276
00:16:51,635 --> 00:16:54,258
- Hello?
- No. Leave it.

277
00:16:54,343 --> 00:16:57,426
I’m telling you I’m not interested.

278
00:16:59,468 --> 00:17:02,509
I don’t believe it. You’re crazy, you know.

279
00:17:02,635 --> 00:17:06,967
Fine, but you’re always hanging out
with the wrong people.

280
00:17:07,677 --> 00:17:09,176
Why?

281
00:17:09,510 --> 00:17:12,676
The other day we were checking IDs
in the tea house.

282
00:17:12,802 --> 00:17:15,175
That guy, the one I just saw you with.

283
00:17:15,260 --> 00:17:16,551
He’s got an attitude.

284
00:17:16,677 --> 00:17:19,759
“Why do I have to show ID in my hometown?”

285
00:17:19,927 --> 00:17:21,634
I told him to cut the crap.

286
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,676
“It’s a routine check. Shut up.”

287
00:17:23,802 --> 00:17:25,176
Really? So?

288
00:17:25,302 --> 00:17:28,009
So, nothing.
He fucking showed it, of course.

289
00:17:28,218 --> 00:17:30,426
The guy’s an asshole.

290
00:17:30,677 --> 00:17:32,051
Seriously.

291
00:17:32,218 --> 00:17:35,426
All the losers around here
end up at our door.

292
00:17:35,552 --> 00:17:38,217
You really have your work cut out.

293
00:17:38,343 --> 00:17:41,884
You don’t know the half of it. The other day,

294
00:17:42,052 --> 00:17:44,842
some guy calls the station
stranded on the road.

295
00:17:44,968 --> 00:17:49,051
Had to go in the middle of the night,
find gas and fill his tank.

296
00:17:49,177 --> 00:17:50,051
Really?

297
00:17:50,177 --> 00:17:51,259
Better believe it.

298
00:19:21,385 --> 00:19:22,967
- Hello.
- Hi.

299
00:19:23,135 --> 00:19:25,051
- It’s Nuray, isn’t it?
- Yes.

300
00:19:25,218 --> 00:19:27,967
- I hope you didn’t wait long.
- No, it’s fine.

301
00:19:28,093 --> 00:19:29,551
Have a seat.

302
00:19:29,968 --> 00:19:32,134
Would you like tea or coffee?

303
00:19:33,093 --> 00:19:34,884
I’d like a weak tea.

304
00:19:55,093 --> 00:19:56,592
Thanks.

305
00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,342
Weak enough?

306
00:19:59,510 --> 00:20:00,926
That’s fine.

307
00:20:01,302 --> 00:20:02,426
Sugar’s here.

308
00:20:02,552 --> 00:20:03,926
Thanks.

309
00:20:08,802 --> 00:20:11,509
Your school’s pretty big.

310
00:20:12,343 --> 00:20:14,509
Had to ask my way to the canteen.

311
00:20:14,635 --> 00:20:17,676
Yes, large for this region perhaps.

312
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,634
Compared to our dump,
everywhere seems like Paris to me.

313
00:20:24,343 --> 00:20:26,467
- Which village?
- Incesu.

314
00:20:28,677 --> 00:20:31,259
Never been, but it must be harder than here.

315
00:20:31,385 --> 00:20:33,134
Of course.

316
00:20:35,135 --> 00:20:36,967
How long have you been there?

317
00:20:37,177 --> 00:20:38,717
This is my fourth year.

318
00:20:39,677 --> 00:20:41,926
- Enough for a transfer.
- Yes.

319
00:20:42,218 --> 00:20:43,926
Are you going to ask for one?

320
00:20:44,052 --> 00:20:45,634
You kidding?

321
00:20:46,135 --> 00:20:49,842
From the day I arrived,
I’ve only thought about leaving.

322
00:20:50,218 --> 00:20:52,509
- Where to?
- Istanbul.

323
00:20:58,052 --> 00:21:01,134
It can’t be easy for you here either,

324
00:21:01,302 --> 00:21:03,592
after all that time in Ankara.

325
00:21:04,427 --> 00:21:06,342
That’s right.

326
00:21:07,093 --> 00:21:09,904
But your family’s here, I guess. That’s good.

327
00:21:09,989 --> 00:21:12,384
Sercan said something like that.

328
00:21:12,565 --> 00:21:13,820
Yes.

329
00:21:13,906 --> 00:21:16,676
You live with them or something.

330
00:21:17,149 --> 00:21:19,509
Sercan told you
a lot about me, it seems.

331
00:21:19,635 --> 00:21:22,384
No, not really. Don’t get the wrong idea.

332
00:21:23,135 --> 00:21:25,509
He knows I’m here.

333
00:21:25,677 --> 00:21:27,133
He insisted I call,

334
00:21:27,218 --> 00:21:28,509
said we’d get on well.

335
00:21:28,635 --> 00:21:31,009
You draw too, I guess?

336
00:21:31,802 --> 00:21:34,217
I’m just an amateur.

337
00:21:34,427 --> 00:21:37,259
Community education level.

338
00:21:37,510 --> 00:21:39,926
That’s great. Really.

339
00:21:41,135 --> 00:21:43,384
I studied it at school,
now I teach it.

340
00:21:43,510 --> 00:21:45,259
So I’m an art teacher,

341
00:21:45,385 --> 00:21:47,717
but I haven’t drawn
in a long time.

342
00:21:47,927 --> 00:21:49,884
I’m lazy, I guess.

343
00:21:51,593 --> 00:21:53,383
But sometimes I take photos.

344
00:21:53,468 --> 00:21:56,426
I head out into the wild, things like that.

345
00:21:57,177 --> 00:21:58,717
That’s nice.

346
00:22:48,802 --> 00:22:50,759
Come on, teacher.

347
00:22:51,135 --> 00:22:52,717
Thanks.

348
00:23:01,698 --> 00:23:05,113
Get a bit closer to the horse.

349
00:23:05,635 --> 00:23:07,967
Bow your head a little.

350
00:23:14,677 --> 00:23:16,509
Like this. Okay.

351
00:23:23,677 --> 00:23:25,426
Bow your head a bit more.

352
00:23:25,802 --> 00:23:27,091
Turn it this way.

353
00:23:27,177 --> 00:23:29,008
Look at me, into the lens.

354
00:23:29,093 --> 00:23:30,592
I’m taking it now.

355
00:24:14,343 --> 00:24:16,091
Today we study portraits.

356
00:24:16,177 --> 00:24:18,467
- What’s that?
- Quiet.

357
00:24:18,593 --> 00:24:21,467
People’s faces. Today you’ll draw this.

358
00:24:21,593 --> 00:24:23,676
That’s really hard, sir.

359
00:24:24,093 --> 00:24:26,634
It doesn’t have to be exactly the same.

360
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,591
Do your best. Change it if you have to.

361
00:24:29,677 --> 00:24:31,676
Try to add your own touch.

362
00:24:31,968 --> 00:24:34,217
We always draw the same things.

363
00:24:34,343 --> 00:24:36,551
Mountains, rocks, snow, donkeys.

364
00:24:36,718 --> 00:24:40,176
You draw the things you know well.
What more do you want?

365
00:24:40,302 --> 00:24:43,051
Wouldn’t it be better if we drew the sea?

366
00:24:43,468 --> 00:24:45,258
The sea? What for?

367
00:24:45,343 --> 00:24:47,926
Would be nice. The sea and sun.

368
00:24:48,927 --> 00:24:52,717
But how will you draw things
you don’t know well?

369
00:24:52,843 --> 00:24:54,176
But we do know them.

370
00:24:54,302 --> 00:24:57,384
How? Any of you seen the sea?

371
00:24:57,552 --> 00:24:58,800
Where did you see it?

372
00:24:58,885 --> 00:25:00,967
On TV, sir.

373
00:25:02,552 --> 00:25:04,592
I don’t mean that.

374
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:06,384
I mean in real life.

375
00:25:06,802 --> 00:25:08,175
Yes, Delila.

376
00:25:08,260 --> 00:25:12,341
I visited my aunt in Izmir.

377
00:25:12,427 --> 00:25:13,840
- You saw it there?
- Yes.

378
00:25:13,966 --> 00:25:15,598
- Did you go in?
- Yes.

379
00:25:15,843 --> 00:25:18,009
Fine. Okay.

380
00:25:18,427 --> 00:25:21,301
We can draw the sea as well.

381
00:25:24,093 --> 00:25:28,551
I’ll check my photos, then maybe we can
do what you like.

382
00:25:28,718 --> 00:25:32,384
What’s the name of the sea at Izmir?
Anyone know?

383
00:25:33,052 --> 00:25:35,008
What’s it called? Tell me, Aylin.

384
00:25:35,093 --> 00:25:36,801
Aegean Sea, sir.

385
00:25:36,927 --> 00:25:38,634
Well done, dear.

386
00:25:39,135 --> 00:25:41,426
What other seas are there?

387
00:25:43,677 --> 00:25:44,926
Tell me, Sevim.

388
00:25:45,052 --> 00:25:49,301
Marmara Sea, Mediterranean, Black Sea.

389
00:25:49,593 --> 00:25:50,716
Good job. Bravo.

390
00:25:50,802 --> 00:25:53,009
It’s always the same.

391
00:25:54,677 --> 00:25:56,384
Something wrong, Bilal?

392
00:25:56,510 --> 00:26:00,384
You always ask Sevim and her friends.

393
00:26:00,677 --> 00:26:01,884
What’s that mean?

394
00:26:02,052 --> 00:26:05,842
From the start of the first semester,
you’ve always asked them.

395
00:26:05,968 --> 00:26:07,383
So what if I do?

396
00:26:07,468 --> 00:26:10,217
It’s a kind of discrimination.

397
00:26:10,343 --> 00:26:12,676
Don’t talk nonsense.

398
00:26:13,093 --> 00:26:15,009
You fool. Be smart.

399
00:26:15,135 --> 00:26:16,841
- But you always...
- Shut up!

400
00:26:16,927 --> 00:26:19,551
Be careful when you talk to me.

401
00:26:20,927 --> 00:26:24,009
Don’t take advantage because I’m nice.

402
00:26:24,677 --> 00:26:26,342
Behave yourself.

403
00:26:32,635 --> 00:26:35,508
- Finish drawing.
- Can we draw something else?

404
00:26:35,593 --> 00:26:37,967
Draw whatever you want.

405
00:26:46,260 --> 00:26:48,426
I’ll get the Honda.

406
00:26:48,802 --> 00:26:50,759
The Honda. I want to buy it.

407
00:26:50,885 --> 00:26:53,426
- Really?
- Yeah, life’s short.

408
00:26:53,552 --> 00:26:56,301
Has he dropped the price?

409
00:26:56,552 --> 00:26:59,509
No, but I looked into it.

410
00:26:59,635 --> 00:27:01,259
It’s worth it.

411
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,758
- I see you’ve made up your mind.
- Yeah.

412
00:27:04,843 --> 00:27:06,342
It’s cheap even.

413
00:27:06,510 --> 00:27:08,551
Then buy it and relax.

414
00:27:08,677 --> 00:27:10,426
Buy it. Yeah.

415
00:27:10,885 --> 00:27:13,717
- We’ll drive around.
- Yeah, sure.

416
00:27:14,843 --> 00:27:16,884
What’s up, girls?

417
00:27:17,052 --> 00:27:18,842
Aylin wants to call her dad

418
00:27:18,968 --> 00:27:20,801
about staying for study period.

419
00:27:20,927 --> 00:27:24,176
Study period? Never mind about that.

420
00:27:30,552 --> 00:27:33,301
Don’t let anyone touch these volleyballs.

421
00:27:33,427 --> 00:27:35,301
You’re usually here.

422
00:27:35,510 --> 00:27:37,342
- Send them to me.
- Alright.

423
00:27:37,468 --> 00:27:40,801
They say volleyball
but keep playing football.

424
00:27:40,927 --> 00:27:42,842
Alright. Is your eye better?

425
00:27:42,968 --> 00:27:45,258
- Yes.
- Here you are.

426
00:27:45,343 --> 00:27:46,967
Thank you.

427
00:27:48,802 --> 00:27:51,466
Sir, Ibrahim fell off the slide.

428
00:27:51,552 --> 00:27:53,217
Really? How?

429
00:27:53,468 --> 00:27:55,967
He was walking on it.

430
00:27:56,927 --> 00:28:00,092
He deserved it, then,
if he was walking on it.

431
00:28:04,260 --> 00:28:05,551
Whoa!

432
00:28:05,677 --> 00:28:08,342
What have you done, girl?

433
00:28:08,968 --> 00:28:11,009
You’ve made a mess.

434
00:28:13,677 --> 00:28:15,592
What class do you have?

435
00:28:16,843 --> 00:28:18,551
Social studies.

436
00:28:21,677 --> 00:28:24,342
Mr. Kenan is so boring.

437
00:28:24,468 --> 00:28:27,092
How can you share a house with him?

438
00:28:27,260 --> 00:28:30,342
Shush. You shouldn’t talk like that.

439
00:28:30,468 --> 00:28:31,592
But it’s true.

440
00:28:31,718 --> 00:28:33,634
- Did your dad say yes?
- Yes.

441
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:35,301
Okay.

442
00:28:36,635 --> 00:28:39,676
Can you let me and Aylin
out of class now?

443
00:28:39,802 --> 00:28:43,842
No way. Come on, get to class.

444
00:28:43,968 --> 00:28:46,426
Mr. Kenan doesn’t do anything anyway.

445
00:28:46,552 --> 00:28:48,841
He just shows dumb videos.

446
00:28:48,927 --> 00:28:51,925
- That’s right.
- What more do you want?

447
00:28:52,010 --> 00:28:54,842
Would you rather take notes for an hour?

448
00:28:55,010 --> 00:28:55,926
No, but...

449
00:28:56,093 --> 00:28:58,467
Come on, get to class.

450
00:28:58,593 --> 00:29:00,118
- But...
- Out of my sight!

451
00:29:00,244 --> 00:29:02,884
Don’t talk about your teachers like that.

452
00:29:03,010 --> 00:29:05,551
Come on, off to class now.

453
00:29:35,135 --> 00:29:36,801
What’s up?

454
00:29:37,218 --> 00:29:39,426
Let’s go get water from the hill.

455
00:29:42,677 --> 00:29:44,051
Come on.

456
00:29:44,718 --> 00:29:46,759
Let’s get some spring water.

457
00:29:48,093 --> 00:29:50,967
Right. If we have to suffer here,

458
00:29:51,552 --> 00:29:53,759
let’s at least take advantage of that.

459
00:29:53,968 --> 00:29:55,426
Exactly.

460
00:30:25,260 --> 00:30:26,717
Look.

461
00:30:31,968 --> 00:30:33,592
Who’s that?

462
00:30:34,552 --> 00:30:36,050
Is that her?

463
00:30:36,135 --> 00:30:39,342
Yeah, I told you. I met her the other day.

464
00:30:39,885 --> 00:30:41,009
Did you take that?

465
00:30:41,135 --> 00:30:43,592
No, it’s her Instagram account.

466
00:30:44,718 --> 00:30:46,259
She’s pretty.

467
00:30:47,010 --> 00:30:48,634
Not bad.

468
00:30:49,010 --> 00:30:50,675
- Want to meet her?
- What?

469
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:52,551
I can introduce you.

470
00:30:53,552 --> 00:30:54,966
Why?

471
00:30:55,052 --> 00:30:58,051
I think you’d get on. You’d suit each other.

472
00:30:59,385 --> 00:31:00,634
Why?

473
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,801
I don’t know, you just would.

474
00:31:03,927 --> 00:31:06,801
You’re both from here. You’re both teachers.

475
00:31:07,552 --> 00:31:09,217
What does she teach?

476
00:31:09,385 --> 00:31:10,967
English.

477
00:31:12,552 --> 00:31:14,009
Nice.

478
00:31:14,385 --> 00:31:16,426
You could learn English as well.

479
00:31:16,552 --> 00:31:18,301
You always wanted to.

480
00:31:19,343 --> 00:31:21,634
And you’re both Alawis.

481
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,717
That’s not important.

482
00:31:24,010 --> 00:31:26,717
Maybe not for you and me,

483
00:31:26,843 --> 00:31:29,551
but it is for families.

484
00:31:31,343 --> 00:31:34,092
And she’s smart, and intelligent.

485
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:36,759
She does drawing and stuff.

486
00:31:40,677 --> 00:31:43,967
If she’s so great, why don’t you date her?

487
00:31:44,510 --> 00:31:47,301
I’m leaving here, man.

488
00:31:47,843 --> 00:31:50,091
Besides, I don’t want to get married.

489
00:31:50,177 --> 00:31:52,676
You’re the one who wants to, right?

490
00:31:52,802 --> 00:31:53,717
That’s true.

491
00:31:53,843 --> 00:31:57,341
Your mother will be happy.
You said she was upset about it.

492
00:31:57,427 --> 00:31:58,926
Well, yeah.

493
00:31:59,468 --> 00:32:03,134
I’ll sort it out this year, anyway.

494
00:32:08,260 --> 00:32:11,467
Don’t think I’m not interested
cause of her leg.

495
00:32:11,593 --> 00:32:13,467
It doesn’t matter to me at all.

496
00:32:13,635 --> 00:32:15,509
You don’t even really notice.

497
00:32:15,635 --> 00:32:17,842
She’s just got a slight limp.

498
00:32:19,968 --> 00:32:22,176
It doesn’t matter to me, either.

499
00:32:23,677 --> 00:32:25,759
Maybe it’s even better.

500
00:32:27,385 --> 00:32:28,884
How?

501
00:32:29,718 --> 00:32:31,509
You know.

502
00:32:39,343 --> 00:32:41,176
Let me see.

503
00:32:56,927 --> 00:32:58,551
“We won’t be silent.”

504
00:32:58,718 --> 00:33:01,176
She’s left-wing, I guess.

505
00:33:12,052 --> 00:33:13,884
Yeah, she’s pretty.

506
00:33:38,510 --> 00:33:40,426
She’s really pretty.

507
00:33:41,718 --> 00:33:44,801
Good morning. We’re doing a quick search.

508
00:33:44,927 --> 00:33:46,716
Girls line up at the board.

509
00:33:46,802 --> 00:33:48,842
Boys to the back wall.

510
00:33:48,968 --> 00:33:51,967
- Hurry up. Don’t waste time.
- Be quick.

511
00:33:52,260 --> 00:33:54,759
Don’t touch your bag, boy.

512
00:33:57,260 --> 00:33:58,967
Get in line.

513
00:34:10,593 --> 00:34:11,716
Where’s the box?

514
00:34:11,802 --> 00:34:13,009
There.

515
00:34:20,135 --> 00:34:22,467
What’s this? Who sits here?

516
00:34:22,593 --> 00:34:24,175
- Me.
- Is this yours?

517
00:34:24,260 --> 00:34:26,884
Yes. My sister must’ve put it in my bag.

518
00:34:27,885 --> 00:34:30,426
I really don’t understand.

519
00:34:30,593 --> 00:34:33,009
Such things at your age.

520
00:34:38,010 --> 00:34:39,592
Whose is this?

521
00:34:40,218 --> 00:34:41,676
Whose is this?

522
00:34:42,927 --> 00:34:45,217
Tell me, boys, whose is this?

523
00:34:45,718 --> 00:34:46,884
Yours?

524
00:34:47,052 --> 00:34:49,384
You bring a pen-knife to school?

525
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,176
You’ve been told countless times.

526
00:34:52,468 --> 00:34:54,467
It’s forbidden.

527
00:34:55,968 --> 00:34:58,009
You never listen.

528
00:35:08,093 --> 00:35:11,134
Are you coming to school or a fashion show?

529
00:35:11,885 --> 00:35:13,926
Here’s a laser pointer.

530
00:35:23,218 --> 00:35:24,884
What’s this?

531
00:35:25,093 --> 00:35:26,551
Whose is this?

532
00:35:26,927 --> 00:35:28,342
Mine.

533
00:35:28,718 --> 00:35:30,592
It’s not a school notebook.

534
00:35:30,718 --> 00:35:32,384
What is it, then?

535
00:35:32,593 --> 00:35:34,342
Well, it’s private.

536
00:35:34,468 --> 00:35:35,676
Private?

537
00:35:35,802 --> 00:35:37,967
You’re at school. Private, how?

538
00:35:38,134 --> 00:35:40,009
Stand up straight.

539
00:35:45,653 --> 00:35:47,893
- Your nails...
- I cut them yesterday.

540
00:35:48,020 --> 00:35:49,591
Yesterday?

541
00:35:50,676 --> 00:35:53,009
They grow so fast?

542
00:35:53,135 --> 00:35:55,217
I really did, sir.

543
00:35:57,010 --> 00:35:59,634
Cut them again before tomorrow.

544
00:36:12,009 --> 00:36:14,842
We’ve told you, lighters are not allowed.

545
00:36:15,176 --> 00:36:18,342
Are you coming to school or to a tea house?

546
00:36:24,468 --> 00:36:27,259
What’s up? What are you gossiping about?

547
00:36:28,802 --> 00:36:30,509
It’s funny.

548
00:36:31,093 --> 00:36:31,967
What’s funny?

549
00:36:32,093 --> 00:36:34,801
The letter we found on your Sevim!

550
00:36:35,052 --> 00:36:36,508
My Sevim?

551
00:36:36,593 --> 00:36:37,967
What about her?

552
00:36:38,177 --> 00:36:42,217
Poor thing.
She wrote a love letter, at her age.

553
00:36:42,927 --> 00:36:45,467
A love letter? Sevim? To whom?

554
00:36:45,635 --> 00:36:48,051
I don’t know. Who could it be to?

555
00:36:48,363 --> 00:36:49,987
Who could it be to?

556
00:36:50,119 --> 00:36:51,966
I don’t know.
What do you think?

557
00:36:52,093 --> 00:36:54,217
Don’t know. What do you think?

558
00:36:54,635 --> 00:36:58,134
What’s all this secrecy? I don’t get it.

559
00:36:58,385 --> 00:37:00,217
There’s a letter, so what?

560
00:37:00,343 --> 00:37:02,842
What do you mean “so what”?
There are rules.

561
00:37:02,968 --> 00:37:05,883
Or why bother doing searches?
Let them smoke.

562
00:37:05,968 --> 00:37:08,841
Come on! You understand what I mean.

563
00:37:08,927 --> 00:37:10,634
- It’s not the same.
- It is.

564
00:37:10,843 --> 00:37:13,676
You never wrote a love letter in your life?

565
00:37:13,802 --> 00:37:16,258
What do you mean? Not at that age.

566
00:37:16,343 --> 00:37:19,341
Good for you. You’ve never had a life, then.

567
00:37:19,427 --> 00:37:22,300
What? You only have a life
if you write letters?

568
00:37:22,385 --> 00:37:26,217
Yes. Got nothing better to do than
make fun of a child’s letter?

569
00:37:26,343 --> 00:37:28,591
You’re obviously bored stiff.

570
00:37:28,677 --> 00:37:30,426
What’s up, Samet?

571
00:37:30,635 --> 00:37:33,426
Why are you talking to us like that?

572
00:37:33,552 --> 00:37:36,259
Give me the letter. I’ll sort it out.

573
00:37:36,385 --> 00:37:38,091
Take it, no problem.

574
00:37:38,177 --> 00:37:39,676
What about the principal?

575
00:37:39,802 --> 00:37:42,676
No, Samet’s the class teacher.
Take these too.

576
00:37:42,802 --> 00:37:44,009
Okay, fine.

577
00:37:44,177 --> 00:37:46,134
No need to get upset, Samet.

578
00:37:46,302 --> 00:37:48,426
No one’s getting upset.

579
00:38:11,802 --> 00:38:14,176
Go sit in the warm teachers’ room.

580
00:38:14,302 --> 00:38:16,342
Why do you keep hiding
in this hole?

581
00:38:16,510 --> 00:38:20,342
Screw that madhouse.
At least I can relax in here.

582
00:38:20,510 --> 00:38:22,592
You’re right about that.

583
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:24,926
Won’t argue with that.

584
00:38:25,260 --> 00:38:28,551
But you’ll freeze in here.

585
00:38:29,385 --> 00:38:31,175
Then make some tea to warm us.

586
00:38:31,260 --> 00:38:32,676
I can make tea.

587
00:38:32,885 --> 00:38:34,509
No problem.

588
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,301
The principal showed up late again.

589
00:38:37,468 --> 00:38:39,092
- Really?
- Sure.

590
00:38:39,218 --> 00:38:41,051
He’s newly married.

591
00:38:42,093 --> 00:38:44,634
His wife must be so hot.

592
00:38:45,635 --> 00:38:49,009
If I were him, I’d be late too.

593
00:39:10,802 --> 00:39:12,884
Ah, Sevim.

594
00:39:13,052 --> 00:39:14,634
It’s you.

595
00:39:15,385 --> 00:39:16,342
Come in.

596
00:39:16,468 --> 00:39:18,592
You’ve got my letter, sir.

597
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:20,467
Can I have it?

598
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,759
My letter. You’ve got it.

599
00:39:25,343 --> 00:39:27,426
Can I have it?

600
00:39:32,552 --> 00:39:34,676
Sir, give it back.

601
00:39:36,510 --> 00:39:38,092
Sevim,

602
00:39:38,677 --> 00:39:40,217
why are you crying?

603
00:39:40,343 --> 00:39:42,426
I don’t get it.

604
00:39:43,177 --> 00:39:45,801
Who told you I had the letter?

605
00:39:49,635 --> 00:39:51,759
Who? Mrs. Kevser?

606
00:40:01,093 --> 00:40:02,592
Sevim.

607
00:40:03,718 --> 00:40:05,634
What’s wrong?

608
00:40:17,010 --> 00:40:18,176
Sevim, look...

609
00:40:18,343 --> 00:40:20,259
Okay, it’s alright.

610
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:26,759
Yes, I had your letter.

611
00:40:26,968 --> 00:40:28,967
But I didn’t read it, and I won’t.

612
00:40:29,093 --> 00:40:32,259
I tore it up and threw it away.
No need to worry.

613
00:40:32,385 --> 00:40:35,384
Where, sir? What if someone finds it?

614
00:40:35,552 --> 00:40:39,342
Even if they did, they couldn’t read it.
It’s in tiny pieces.

615
00:40:39,468 --> 00:40:40,842
Don’t worry.

616
00:40:40,968 --> 00:40:43,092
There’s nothing to worry about.

617
00:40:46,677 --> 00:40:50,092
Did you think I was like the other teachers?

618
00:40:50,885 --> 00:40:53,342
These things are normal for me.

619
00:40:57,343 --> 00:40:59,259
Being in love

620
00:40:59,385 --> 00:41:01,384
is a wonderful thing.

621
00:41:01,648 --> 00:41:02,656
Okay?

622
00:41:03,177 --> 00:41:05,551
There’s nothing to be ashamed of.

623
00:41:09,677 --> 00:41:11,926
When I was your age,

624
00:41:12,468 --> 00:41:14,884
I was in love

625
00:41:15,968 --> 00:41:17,926
with my literature teacher.

626
00:41:18,052 --> 00:41:21,926
I saw her face everywhere.

627
00:41:22,593 --> 00:41:26,676
Time passed and lots changed, of course.

628
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:31,884
But one thing I’m sure of...

629
00:41:32,177 --> 00:41:38,176
I never had such strong feelings ever again.

630
00:41:39,010 --> 00:41:40,384
Okay?

631
00:41:40,593 --> 00:41:43,301
I never again had feelings

632
00:41:43,510 --> 00:41:48,217
that were so pure, innocent and powerful.

633
00:41:48,593 --> 00:41:50,134
Really.

634
00:41:51,802 --> 00:41:55,842
You should appreciate these years, okay?

635
00:41:57,968 --> 00:42:01,176
These experiences are so valuable

636
00:42:01,302 --> 00:42:02,967
and so hard to find...

637
00:42:03,093 --> 00:42:04,884
Please, sir.

638
00:42:05,052 --> 00:42:08,009
Give me the letter, I’m begging you.

639
00:42:09,093 --> 00:42:12,676
For God’s sake, what did I tell you, Sevim?

640
00:42:13,343 --> 00:42:17,551
Aren’t you listening?
I said I tore it up and threw it away.

641
00:42:18,635 --> 00:42:20,634
Don’t you believe me?

642
00:42:22,885 --> 00:42:26,342
The letter’s gone. It doesn’t exist anymore.

643
00:42:29,302 --> 00:42:32,759
Come on in. Don’t you see the door’s open?

644
00:42:33,843 --> 00:42:37,342
Here’s your tea.

645
00:42:37,927 --> 00:42:39,801
Alright, Sevim?

646
00:42:45,135 --> 00:42:47,676
Okay? Here’s your gift.

647
00:42:48,135 --> 00:42:51,259
Put it back in your bag.

648
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:54,426
It’s yours, you know.

649
00:42:55,260 --> 00:42:58,176
But don’t bring it to school anymore.

650
00:42:59,593 --> 00:43:02,551
Those idiots don’t understand such things.

651
00:43:04,135 --> 00:43:07,926
I was scared you’d say it was my present.

652
00:43:08,052 --> 00:43:10,342
Well done for not talking.

653
00:43:11,635 --> 00:43:15,134
I didn’t exactly get
what was happening in there.

654
00:43:15,385 --> 00:43:18,259
If I had, I wouldn’t have let them.

655
00:43:18,593 --> 00:43:20,217
Anyway.

656
00:43:23,510 --> 00:43:24,925
So?

657
00:43:25,010 --> 00:43:28,134
Did you read any of the books I gave you?

658
00:43:36,260 --> 00:43:39,176
Won’t you give me the letter?

659
00:43:54,593 --> 00:43:56,551
Not taking your gift?

660
00:44:18,885 --> 00:44:20,592
What’s up with her?

661
00:44:22,093 --> 00:44:23,467
Aren’t you coming?

662
00:44:23,593 --> 00:44:26,051
I’ll get my coat.

663
00:44:33,843 --> 00:44:36,259
We’re going to Turnagöl next week.

664
00:44:36,385 --> 00:44:38,259
- What for?
- Parent visit.

665
00:44:38,427 --> 00:44:40,259
- Really?
- Yeah.

666
00:44:42,177 --> 00:44:47,467
I’m sick of every new principal’s
crappy projects.

667
00:44:47,927 --> 00:44:51,466
We do everything, so he can suck up
to the Directorate.

668
00:44:51,552 --> 00:44:54,092
It’s a pain for the families too.

669
00:44:54,218 --> 00:44:56,217
Some are worse off than others.

670
00:44:56,343 --> 00:44:58,884
Kids can be embarrassed by where they live.

671
00:44:59,010 --> 00:45:02,509
Someone needs to tell that clown
to stop the bullshit.

672
00:45:03,552 --> 00:45:07,134
Something happened on the last parent visit.

673
00:45:07,302 --> 00:45:09,051
It was awful.

674
00:45:09,218 --> 00:45:12,383
I didn’t see my zipper was down.
We went in and sat.

675
00:45:12,468 --> 00:45:14,759
Everyone was staring at me.

676
00:45:14,885 --> 00:45:18,467
Something was off, but I didn’t know what.

677
00:45:21,802 --> 00:45:24,259
I leaned back,

678
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:28,801
and the bottom of my shirt
stuck through my open zipper.

679
00:45:29,385 --> 00:45:31,759
It was a disaster.

680
00:45:32,510 --> 00:45:36,592
That was when the guy asked me
if I wanted sugar.

681
00:45:37,343 --> 00:45:38,967
I got up,

682
00:45:39,093 --> 00:45:42,092
took some sugar and immediately bent over.

683
00:46:14,135 --> 00:46:15,926
She’s here.

684
00:46:20,927 --> 00:46:23,091
- Hi.
- Hi. Welcome.

685
00:46:23,177 --> 00:46:25,050
Sorry. Hope I’m not too late?

686
00:46:25,135 --> 00:46:26,926
No, not at all.

687
00:46:27,177 --> 00:46:31,009
This is my friend Kenan. My housemate.

688
00:46:31,135 --> 00:46:32,884
Came to town together today.

689
00:46:33,010 --> 00:46:34,009
Nice to meet you.

690
00:46:34,135 --> 00:46:35,884
- Likewise. Welcome.
- Thanks.

691
00:46:36,010 --> 00:46:38,591
- Have a seat.
- Sit by the window.

692
00:46:38,677 --> 00:46:41,259
- No need.
- No, please.

693
00:46:43,177 --> 00:46:44,676
Thanks.

694
00:46:46,718 --> 00:46:49,426
- I’ll take your coat.
- Thanks.

695
00:46:57,593 --> 00:46:59,759
Want a drink? We already ordered.

696
00:46:59,885 --> 00:47:01,634
No problem.

697
00:47:02,010 --> 00:47:03,842
Tea again, weak.

698
00:47:04,093 --> 00:47:05,758
Something sweet?

699
00:47:05,843 --> 00:47:07,342
No, thanks. Tea’s fine.

700
00:47:07,468 --> 00:47:08,967
Weak.

701
00:47:09,885 --> 00:47:12,801
What have you been up to? How’s school?

702
00:47:12,968 --> 00:47:15,051
Fine. The usual.

703
00:47:15,427 --> 00:47:17,091
School, then home at night.

704
00:47:17,177 --> 00:47:19,425
I pass the time by drawing and stuff.

705
00:47:19,510 --> 00:47:20,717
You draw?

706
00:47:20,843 --> 00:47:23,384
Yeah. I try.

707
00:47:23,552 --> 00:47:26,051
That’s a great thing to do.

708
00:47:26,177 --> 00:47:29,709
I started while I was
at the hospital in Ankara.

709
00:47:29,841 --> 00:47:32,509
- I liked it, so I carried on.
- That’s nice.

710
00:47:32,677 --> 00:47:35,008
Have you ever exhibited?

711
00:47:35,093 --> 00:47:36,509
Sort of.

712
00:47:37,427 --> 00:47:39,676
We have an association in Ankara.

713
00:47:39,802 --> 00:47:43,341
We held an exhibition
to support prisoners’ families.

714
00:47:43,427 --> 00:47:44,926
Nothing big.

715
00:47:45,093 --> 00:47:47,509
You’re an English teacher, right?

716
00:47:48,260 --> 00:47:52,009
Yes, but I don’t know if I’m teaching
them English,

717
00:47:52,135 --> 00:47:55,759
or they’re teaching me Kurdish.

718
00:47:57,218 --> 00:47:59,634
This is your first year here?

719
00:48:00,135 --> 00:48:01,426
Yes.

720
00:48:01,552 --> 00:48:03,594
So two years
before you can transfer.

721
00:48:03,677 --> 00:48:07,842
No. Because of my disability,
I can go whenever I want.

722
00:48:08,010 --> 00:48:09,467
Really?

723
00:48:09,765 --> 00:48:11,341
And wherever I want.

724
00:48:11,427 --> 00:48:12,884
That’s great.

725
00:48:14,135 --> 00:48:18,176
Sometimes I think about asking for Istanbul.
My sister’s there.

726
00:48:18,302 --> 00:48:19,759
That’s great.

727
00:48:20,052 --> 00:48:23,012
Yeah, there’s something like that
in the regulations.

728
00:48:23,141 --> 00:48:24,390
So, will you go?

729
00:48:24,506 --> 00:48:25,926
Maybe.

730
00:48:26,093 --> 00:48:28,259
But my parents don’t want me to.

731
00:48:28,885 --> 00:48:31,467
And the incident isn’t that old.

732
00:48:32,718 --> 00:48:34,884
It’s okay here,

733
00:48:35,843 --> 00:48:37,676
but it can be tough.

734
00:48:37,802 --> 00:48:39,426
I don’t know.

735
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:42,967
I think you should go.

736
00:48:43,302 --> 00:48:44,759
No, no.

737
00:48:45,552 --> 00:48:47,051
I get it.

738
00:48:54,537 --> 00:48:56,919
I had a wide circle of friends
in Ankara.

739
00:48:57,052 --> 00:48:59,301
- I was very free.
- Definitely.

740
00:49:00,260 --> 00:49:03,467
I thought I’d never come back here.

741
00:49:05,010 --> 00:49:06,591
But here I am.

742
00:49:06,677 --> 00:49:08,634
Don’t be like that.

743
00:49:08,927 --> 00:49:12,051
Not all dreams come true.

744
00:49:12,177 --> 00:49:14,259
It wasn’t a dream. It was an ideal.

745
00:49:14,385 --> 00:49:16,134
Of course it was.

746
00:49:17,218 --> 00:49:20,467
But things didn’t work out.

747
00:49:28,510 --> 00:49:33,051
If I stay here, maybe I should get a car?

748
00:49:33,177 --> 00:49:35,051
That’s a good idea. Yes.

749
00:49:35,177 --> 00:49:36,716
A car means freedom.

750
00:49:36,802 --> 00:49:38,009
Definitely.

751
00:49:38,135 --> 00:49:42,091
You can at least go out and
explore the countryside.

752
00:49:42,177 --> 00:49:43,091
Exactly.

753
00:49:43,177 --> 00:49:46,091
- I like traveling.
- Yeah? Me too.

754
00:49:46,177 --> 00:49:48,134
I do it all the time.

755
00:49:48,302 --> 00:49:50,684
- Nice.
- Traveling’s fine,

756
00:49:50,816 --> 00:49:53,759
but it’s hard in the snow.

757
00:49:53,885 --> 00:49:56,759
No, it’s not. You can still travel.
Ignore him.

758
00:49:56,885 --> 00:49:58,633
All the roads are open.

759
00:49:58,718 --> 00:50:01,758
- Travel to where?
- Wherever you want.

760
00:50:01,843 --> 00:50:05,092
- Lots of great places around here.
- Such as?

761
00:50:05,260 --> 00:50:08,176
Such as Diyadin Canyon. Ever been?

762
00:50:08,427 --> 00:50:10,926
- The one near Agri?
- Just after Agri.

763
00:50:11,093 --> 00:50:15,342
- How’d we get there?
- By car.

764
00:50:15,635 --> 00:50:18,967
Fine, but you can’t get through
if there’s a snowstorm.

765
00:50:19,093 --> 00:50:21,550
If you always worry,
you never do anything.

766
00:50:21,635 --> 00:50:23,633
You just have to do it.

767
00:50:23,718 --> 00:50:26,051
Must be nice there, I guess.

768
00:50:26,177 --> 00:50:28,301
It’s a beautiful place.

769
00:50:29,218 --> 00:50:32,717
I went there a few years ago with friends.

770
00:50:33,010 --> 00:50:34,384
An incredible view.

771
00:50:34,510 --> 00:50:36,133
- Wow.
- Yeah.

772
00:50:36,218 --> 00:50:39,175
There are great places to see nearby.

773
00:50:39,260 --> 00:50:40,717
Definitely.

774
00:50:41,010 --> 00:50:43,634
I can take you some day, if you like.

775
00:50:44,552 --> 00:50:45,466
What?

776
00:50:45,552 --> 00:50:47,800
We can go some day if you want.

777
00:50:47,885 --> 00:50:49,051
You have a car?

778
00:50:49,177 --> 00:50:50,883
An old wreck.

779
00:50:50,968 --> 00:50:54,342
Yes. Until you get yours,

780
00:50:54,510 --> 00:50:57,259
me and my wreck

781
00:50:58,468 --> 00:51:00,551
are at your disposal.

782
00:51:03,135 --> 00:51:04,801
Thanks a lot.

783
00:52:05,177 --> 00:52:06,051
Kenan!

784
00:52:06,177 --> 00:52:07,009
Corner kick.

785
00:52:07,135 --> 00:52:08,217
Kenan!

786
00:52:08,343 --> 00:52:09,676
Come here.

787
00:52:12,052 --> 00:52:15,801
The Director of Education wants
to see you and Samet.

788
00:52:15,927 --> 00:52:17,759
- What for?
- Where’s Samet?

789
00:52:17,885 --> 00:52:20,051
- At home.
- Call him right away, okay?

790
00:52:20,218 --> 00:52:24,134
- Something wrong?
- I don’t know. Hurry, okay?

791
00:52:24,539 --> 00:52:25,824
There’s Samet.

792
00:52:25,950 --> 00:52:27,801
- Tell him.
- They didn’t call us.

793
00:52:27,924 --> 00:52:30,509
- I don’t know.
- Hope it’s not serious.

794
00:52:57,218 --> 00:52:58,926
What’s up?

795
00:53:01,093 --> 00:53:02,759
The Director wants to see us.

796
00:53:02,927 --> 00:53:04,437
- Who?
- The two of us.

797
00:53:04,526 --> 00:53:05,331
Why?

798
00:53:05,457 --> 00:53:08,384
I don’t know. The principal just told me.

799
00:53:08,510 --> 00:53:10,801
- Bekir?
- Yeah.

800
00:53:11,427 --> 00:53:12,634
Didn’t you ask why?

801
00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:14,884
Sure, but he didn’t say.

802
00:53:15,052 --> 00:53:16,134
What do you mean?

803
00:53:16,260 --> 00:53:19,301
He mumbled something. I didn’t understand.

804
00:53:19,677 --> 00:53:22,592
Couldn’t you ask him properly and find out?

805
00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:24,051
We have to go, anyway.

806
00:53:24,177 --> 00:53:26,217
What did he say, exactly?

807
00:53:26,343 --> 00:53:28,217
Something about a project.

808
00:53:28,968 --> 00:53:30,301
Said he didn’t know.

809
00:53:30,427 --> 00:53:34,426
Fuck him, he doesn’t know.

810
00:53:35,510 --> 00:53:37,092
- When?
- Right now.

811
00:53:37,260 --> 00:53:39,176
- Right now?
- Yeah.

812
00:53:39,635 --> 00:53:41,134
Damn.

813
00:53:43,052 --> 00:53:45,051
I’ll call Bekir.

814
00:53:45,635 --> 00:53:47,592
If he doesn’t know,

815
00:53:47,843 --> 00:53:51,884
maybe they’re making you principal
and me vice principal.

816
00:53:52,677 --> 00:53:53,759
What?

817
00:53:53,885 --> 00:53:55,926
Anything’s possible.

818
00:53:59,177 --> 00:54:01,384
Asshole isn’t answering.

819
00:54:02,927 --> 00:54:04,176
Who was with him?

820
00:54:04,302 --> 00:54:05,634
I don’t know.

821
00:54:09,218 --> 00:54:11,509
So, think we got promoted?

822
00:54:11,927 --> 00:54:14,467
Look at you. Are you getting excited?

823
00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:32,342
Come in.

824
00:54:37,427 --> 00:54:39,051
Come on in.

825
00:54:50,385 --> 00:54:52,051
Take a seat.

826
00:54:53,177 --> 00:54:55,051
You sit there.

827
00:55:10,010 --> 00:55:12,634
What’s-his-name will be here in a minute.

828
00:55:14,177 --> 00:55:15,759
Fatih!

829
00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:19,926
Yes, sir.

830
00:55:20,052 --> 00:55:21,342
Bring us tea.

831
00:55:21,677 --> 00:55:23,842
Bring one extra.

832
00:55:29,843 --> 00:55:31,509
How’s it going?

833
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:33,759
- Good.
- Thank you, sir.

834
00:55:33,927 --> 00:55:35,717
How are you yourself?

835
00:55:36,468 --> 00:55:38,467
Is the school warm enough?

836
00:55:39,843 --> 00:55:42,676
It’s fine this year.

837
00:55:43,093 --> 00:55:44,634
Good.

838
00:55:45,052 --> 00:55:49,092
Stick it out.
We want to install central heating.

839
00:55:49,552 --> 00:55:51,301
We’ve done it in six villages.

840
00:55:51,427 --> 00:55:55,092
We’ll do it everywhere as the budget allows.

841
00:55:55,385 --> 00:55:58,676
We already have central heating.

842
00:56:00,093 --> 00:56:04,009
Right. I mixed you up

843
00:56:04,177 --> 00:56:06,051
with Karasu.

844
00:56:06,343 --> 00:56:08,550
We want to install it there too.

845
00:56:08,635 --> 00:56:10,092
That’s good.

846
00:56:11,052 --> 00:56:12,801
Determined

847
00:56:13,177 --> 00:56:15,883
to replace all the stoves in the area.

848
00:56:15,968 --> 00:56:17,217
Right.

849
00:56:17,510 --> 00:56:21,008
Mr. Bekir said you wanted to see us.

850
00:56:21,093 --> 00:56:24,216
We came straight away. He didn’t say why...

851
00:56:24,302 --> 00:56:26,092
Here’s the tea.

852
00:56:29,510 --> 00:56:31,009
Thanks.

853
00:56:31,843 --> 00:56:33,341
Come in, Atakan.

854
00:56:33,427 --> 00:56:35,425
Sorry, I’m late.

855
00:56:35,510 --> 00:56:37,092
Take a seat.

856
00:56:41,468 --> 00:56:44,426
Atakan is the counselor
at the boarding school.

857
00:56:44,552 --> 00:56:46,426
- Hello.
- Hello.

858
00:56:52,260 --> 00:56:53,551
Well, guys.

859
00:56:54,260 --> 00:56:56,717
It was almost curtains for you.

860
00:56:56,968 --> 00:57:01,176
You escaped by the skin of your teeth.

861
00:57:02,135 --> 00:57:04,051
What do you mean, sir?

862
00:57:05,302 --> 00:57:09,884
This isn’t easy to talk about, but...

863
00:57:10,510 --> 00:57:14,091
there are allegations of
inappropriate contact with students.

864
00:57:14,177 --> 00:57:15,258
What?

865
00:57:15,343 --> 00:57:16,384
How?

866
00:57:16,510 --> 00:57:17,967
Your genius principal

867
00:57:18,135 --> 00:57:20,258
sent us his report straight away,

868
00:57:20,343 --> 00:57:22,592
so the district governor knows too.

869
00:57:22,718 --> 00:57:23,967
About what?

870
00:57:24,093 --> 00:57:27,591
I don’t understand.
There’s a complaint against us?

871
00:57:27,677 --> 00:57:28,716
Yes.

872
00:57:28,802 --> 00:57:31,426
About your closeness to the students.

873
00:57:31,552 --> 00:57:33,092
What have we done?

874
00:57:33,218 --> 00:57:36,176
Fortunately, the governor is a sensible man.

875
00:57:36,302 --> 00:57:37,966
He buried the report.

876
00:57:38,052 --> 00:57:41,050
I wasn’t here. Otherwise,
I’d have blocked it myself.

877
00:57:41,135 --> 00:57:43,175
It must be a misunderstanding.

878
00:57:43,260 --> 00:57:45,829
What’s the problem exactly?

879
00:57:45,956 --> 00:57:49,276
- Who...
- There’s no misunderstanding. Unfortunately,

880
00:57:49,369 --> 00:57:52,531
- the complaint is about you two.
- About us?

881
00:57:52,613 --> 00:57:54,841
What complaint?

882
00:57:54,927 --> 00:57:55,926
Look.

883
00:57:56,052 --> 00:57:58,467
Things like this happen every year.

884
00:57:58,593 --> 00:58:02,008
We investigate and mostly there’s nothing.

885
00:58:02,093 --> 00:58:04,342
Since your school has no counselor,

886
00:58:04,468 --> 00:58:06,480
the complaint went to the principal.

887
00:58:06,605 --> 00:58:09,759
And he sent it here at the speed of light.

888
00:58:09,927 --> 00:58:13,362
I called to warn him
not to pour gas on the fire.

889
00:58:13,448 --> 00:58:16,051
These situations are
potentially explosive.

890
00:58:16,177 --> 00:58:18,301
You never know what can happen.

891
00:58:18,427 --> 00:58:19,980
- Right, Atakan?
- Yes, sir.

892
00:58:20,107 --> 00:58:22,092
Things can get out of hand

893
00:58:22,218 --> 00:58:24,925
and suddenly you’ve got a lynch mob.

894
00:58:25,010 --> 00:58:27,467
You should always investigate first.

895
00:58:27,593 --> 00:58:30,301
The governor got angry about the principal.

896
00:58:30,468 --> 00:58:31,926
I don’t get it.

897
00:58:32,093 --> 00:58:35,051
Who’s accusing us of inappropriate contact?

898
00:58:35,218 --> 00:58:37,591
Besides, the principal sent us here.

899
00:58:37,677 --> 00:58:39,717
He said nothing to us.

900
00:58:39,843 --> 00:58:42,154
He thinks he’s behaving professionally.

901
00:58:42,239 --> 00:58:46,134
Look, you’re fond of the kids
and pinch their cheeks or whatever,

902
00:58:46,260 --> 00:58:48,883
but at that age, their minds work different.

903
00:58:48,968 --> 00:58:53,301
We never make
shows of affection like that. Never.

904
00:58:53,427 --> 00:58:55,842
I don’t even show any affection

905
00:58:55,968 --> 00:58:59,051
to my niece in school
to avoid any misunderstanding.

906
00:58:59,218 --> 00:59:03,884
What’re you talking about?
What’s that got to do with it?

907
00:59:04,010 --> 00:59:07,051
I’ve worked at that school for seven years

908
00:59:07,218 --> 00:59:08,884
and look what happens.

909
00:59:09,010 --> 00:59:12,009
I’ve been here thirty years

910
00:59:12,135 --> 00:59:14,217
and they’re still shitting on me.

911
00:59:14,343 --> 00:59:16,592
It’s that easy to defame someone?

912
00:59:16,802 --> 00:59:20,717
Yes, it is. Sling mud and see what sticks.

913
00:59:20,843 --> 00:59:22,801
What about honor and dignity?

914
00:59:22,927 --> 00:59:24,759
Is that so easy to destroy?

915
00:59:24,885 --> 00:59:27,092
Excuse me, but this is very serious.

916
00:59:27,218 --> 00:59:29,884
Who says it isn’t?

917
00:59:30,010 --> 00:59:33,009
Don’t be childish, for God’s sake.

918
00:59:33,343 --> 00:59:35,259
Which students complained?

919
00:59:35,385 --> 00:59:36,551
Look.

920
00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:39,176
This is all you need to know. Okay?

921
00:59:39,302 --> 00:59:40,966
There’s a complaint

922
00:59:41,052 --> 00:59:45,258
and the counselor talked to the students
to clear up the situation.

923
00:59:45,343 --> 00:59:46,509
Yes.

924
00:59:46,677 --> 00:59:48,342
What did they say?

925
00:59:48,552 --> 00:59:50,926
I can’t tell you that.

926
00:59:51,052 --> 00:59:52,884
What do you mean?

927
00:59:53,010 --> 00:59:55,801
We’re accused, but we don’t know of what.

928
00:59:55,927 --> 00:59:58,342
- How can that be?
- Yes, but...

929
00:59:58,677 --> 01:00:00,301
Kenan, we just told you.

930
01:00:00,427 --> 01:00:01,467
For God’s sake!

931
01:00:01,635 --> 01:00:05,426
It’s about your contact with students.
What more can we say?

932
01:00:05,552 --> 01:00:09,801
But what’s the exact allegation?
If we knew, we could at least...

933
01:00:09,927 --> 01:00:12,717
You want me to say,
“you did this, you did that”?

934
01:00:12,843 --> 01:00:14,634
Like a child?

935
01:00:14,802 --> 01:00:18,591
You’re adults. Forget about it.

936
01:00:18,677 --> 01:00:21,967
I spoke to the students in person.

937
01:00:22,093 --> 01:00:23,051
Luckily,

938
01:00:23,177 --> 01:00:26,800
the complaint is
about your behavior in class.

939
01:00:26,885 --> 01:00:28,301
What did we do?

940
01:00:28,427 --> 01:00:31,551
- I can’t tell you that.
- What did we do?

941
01:00:31,677 --> 01:00:35,258
Kenan, calm down. Let Atakan finish.

942
01:00:35,343 --> 01:00:38,592
If it had been about something
outside the classroom

943
01:00:38,718 --> 01:00:41,258
when no one else was present,

944
01:00:41,343 --> 01:00:44,383
no one could help you.

945
01:00:44,468 --> 01:00:47,716
Who made allegations? At least,
which class are they in?

946
01:00:47,802 --> 01:00:49,800
Again, in such cases,

947
01:00:49,885 --> 01:00:52,841
this information is always kept confidential.

948
01:00:52,927 --> 01:00:55,050
That’s enough.

949
01:00:55,135 --> 01:00:57,634
We can’t give names.

950
01:00:57,802 --> 01:01:01,467
You couldn’t be objective then.

951
01:01:01,593 --> 01:01:03,384
Listen here.

952
01:01:03,635 --> 01:01:07,717
Don’t ever try to find out who they were,
or you’ll be in big trouble.

953
01:01:07,843 --> 01:01:09,801
Even I couldn’t save you.

954
01:01:10,010 --> 01:01:13,092
Knees bent.
You’ll get power from your knees.

955
01:01:17,593 --> 01:01:19,009
Come on.

956
01:01:19,135 --> 01:01:20,259
Not like that.

957
01:01:20,385 --> 01:01:22,134
How are you standing?

958
01:01:22,302 --> 01:01:23,801
Wait. Look at me.

959
01:01:23,968 --> 01:01:25,091
Shoulders out.

960
01:01:25,177 --> 01:01:26,759
Serve now.

961
01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:32,342
Not like that.

962
01:01:35,052 --> 01:01:37,384
What’s going on?
What’s this nonsense?

963
01:01:37,552 --> 01:01:39,426
I don’t know, Tolga.

964
01:01:39,843 --> 01:01:41,926
- How did you hear?
- From Bekir.

965
01:01:42,343 --> 01:01:44,342
He said he’d talk to you.

966
01:01:44,468 --> 01:01:45,634
He talked alright.

967
01:01:45,802 --> 01:01:47,759
He reported us to the district.

968
01:01:47,927 --> 01:01:50,509
- Seriously?
- Now it’s our turn to talk.

969
01:01:50,635 --> 01:01:53,717
- Is he in his office?
- Hang on, wait.

970
01:01:56,552 --> 01:01:59,509
Bekir? I want a quick word.

971
01:02:28,260 --> 01:02:29,426
What’s up?

972
01:02:29,593 --> 01:02:32,509
You reported us without even telling us, why?

973
01:02:32,635 --> 01:02:35,676
We just followed the rules.

974
01:02:35,885 --> 01:02:38,092
What rules?

975
01:02:38,260 --> 01:02:41,259
- Look...
- The damage is already done.

976
01:02:41,385 --> 01:02:43,133
There’s nothing to say.

977
01:02:43,218 --> 01:02:47,884
Both the director and the governor
were shocked by how you handled things.

978
01:02:48,010 --> 01:02:50,759
I only applied the regulations.

979
01:02:50,885 --> 01:02:52,633
It’s not about regulations.

980
01:02:52,718 --> 01:02:54,384
Forget about them.

981
01:02:54,552 --> 01:02:56,800
Don’t hide behind the rules.

982
01:02:56,885 --> 01:02:59,384
You know better than the directors?

983
01:02:59,510 --> 01:03:01,676
Forget about them.

984
01:03:01,843 --> 01:03:04,676
They tell you one thing, and me another.

985
01:03:04,802 --> 01:03:06,842
They even said
I did the best thing.

986
01:03:06,968 --> 01:03:10,258
- Don’t lie to me.
- Why would I lie?

987
01:03:10,343 --> 01:03:12,884
- We talked to them as well.
- So?

988
01:03:13,010 --> 01:03:14,884
Don’t talk about lying.

989
01:03:15,010 --> 01:03:16,716
Calm down, guys.

990
01:03:16,802 --> 01:03:19,967
The door’s open. Students will hear us.

991
01:03:21,260 --> 01:03:22,801
Go outside.

992
01:03:22,968 --> 01:03:25,467
Don’t hang around here.

993
01:03:32,885 --> 01:03:36,508
I understand you’re mad at me.

994
01:03:36,593 --> 01:03:38,550
You may be right, even.

995
01:03:38,635 --> 01:03:42,259
But as soon as I heard it,
I called a counselor friend.

996
01:03:42,385 --> 01:03:44,675
It’s their specialty, isn’t it?

997
01:03:44,760 --> 01:03:45,716
Sure.

998
01:03:45,802 --> 01:03:49,938
He said, “Don’t cover it up.
Otherwise, you’ll be blamed.”

999
01:03:50,070 --> 01:03:52,301
That’s right.

1000
01:03:52,593 --> 01:03:55,216
I’m trying to put myself in your place

1001
01:03:55,302 --> 01:03:57,676
and think about our teachers too.

1002
01:03:57,802 --> 01:04:00,884
I’m thinking out loud.
Maybe you could have...

1003
01:04:01,010 --> 01:04:02,134
No, no.

1004
01:04:02,302 --> 01:04:03,926
I’m trying to say...

1005
01:04:04,052 --> 01:04:07,092
Let’s forget about who did this or that.

1006
01:04:07,218 --> 01:04:10,467
Everyone here should state their intent.

1007
01:04:10,635 --> 01:04:13,634
Intent? What intent could I have?

1008
01:04:13,802 --> 01:04:15,884
That’s what I’m trying to get.

1009
01:04:16,010 --> 01:04:18,050
Come on, now.

1010
01:04:18,135 --> 01:04:20,008
Put yourself in my shoes.

1011
01:04:20,093 --> 01:04:21,717
Well, I’m trying,

1012
01:04:21,841 --> 01:04:24,440
but I still don’t think
I’d do what you did.

1013
01:04:24,566 --> 01:04:27,074
- You’d do what?
- Talk to the teachers first.

1014
01:04:27,199 --> 01:04:28,595
Alright, but suppose

1015
01:04:28,677 --> 01:04:30,550
the teachers were guilty?

1016
01:04:30,635 --> 01:04:32,092
Just supposing.

1017
01:04:32,218 --> 01:04:35,841
Would they say, “Yes we did it”?
That’d never happen.

1018
01:04:35,927 --> 01:04:40,676
What if the kids’ imaginations were
manipulated to punish the teacher?

1019
01:04:40,843 --> 01:04:42,717
Who’d protect the teacher then?

1020
01:04:42,885 --> 01:04:45,884
Shouldn’t the principal listen to both sides

1021
01:04:46,052 --> 01:04:49,676
and be brave enough to use his common sense?

1022
01:04:49,802 --> 01:04:52,676
If you were in charge,
you’d talk differently.

1023
01:04:52,802 --> 01:04:57,633
You were just trying to protect
your own position.

1024
01:04:57,718 --> 01:04:59,758
Don’t try to squirm out of it.

1025
01:04:59,843 --> 01:05:03,925
I’m not squirming. Show some respect.

1026
01:05:04,010 --> 01:05:05,676
I just followed the rules.

1027
01:05:05,843 --> 01:05:08,217
Don’t hide behind the rules.

1028
01:05:08,343 --> 01:05:12,300
How many years have we been
rotting together in this shithole?

1029
01:05:12,385 --> 01:05:14,467
Haven’t we earned the right

1030
01:05:14,593 --> 01:05:16,926
to be told
before a report is filed?

1031
01:05:17,052 --> 01:05:21,217
You’re right, but these are not
everyday issues.

1032
01:05:21,343 --> 01:05:25,217
You’re not sure what to do
when you hear things like this.

1033
01:05:25,343 --> 01:05:28,842
So you think you’d better ask
an expert, right?

1034
01:05:29,510 --> 01:05:31,676
We keep saying the same things.

1035
01:05:31,843 --> 01:05:36,426
Tell us what happened from the start,
for God’s sake.

1036
01:05:36,552 --> 01:05:39,884
- We need to understand.
- That’s right.

1037
01:05:40,843 --> 01:05:43,051
On Friday,

1038
01:05:43,355 --> 01:05:44,862
that Demir

1039
01:05:44,948 --> 01:05:49,176
brought a laser pointer to school
and was pointing it at girls’ skirts.

1040
01:05:49,302 --> 01:05:51,716
The girls complained to me.

1041
01:05:51,802 --> 01:05:56,759
So I gathered all the boys together.

1042
01:05:57,052 --> 01:06:00,300
- In the 8th grade classroom.
- Yes. Tolga was there too.

1043
01:06:00,385 --> 01:06:03,133
- And Kevser gathered the girls.
- Where?

1044
01:06:03,218 --> 01:06:06,508
Kevser and Saime were both there.
But Kevser spoke.

1045
01:06:06,593 --> 01:06:08,051
Where, I said?

1046
01:06:08,177 --> 01:06:10,217
- The 5th grade room.
- Yeah.

1047
01:06:10,385 --> 01:06:13,884
Hold on. What did Kevser say to the girls?

1048
01:06:14,052 --> 01:06:16,217
General advice.

1049
01:06:16,343 --> 01:06:19,342
Advice? What exactly did she say?

1050
01:06:19,468 --> 01:06:22,009
Saime told me

1051
01:06:22,135 --> 01:06:25,300
it was on
being careful about their looks and behavior.

1052
01:06:25,385 --> 01:06:27,743
“Don’t get close to
the male teachers.”

1053
01:06:27,869 --> 01:06:29,008
“You’re grown-ups now.”

1054
01:06:29,129 --> 01:06:31,466
“Be careful
even when you walk past them.”

1055
01:06:31,589 --> 01:06:33,591
Of course, that’s sinful!

1056
01:06:33,677 --> 01:06:35,675
When walking past us, huh?

1057
01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:37,633
That shameless prude!

1058
01:06:37,718 --> 01:06:39,800
Bekir knows the rest. He was there.

1059
01:06:39,885 --> 01:06:45,301
Kevser told the girls to
keep things balanced and formal.

1060
01:06:45,427 --> 01:06:48,050
What’s this about not getting too close?

1061
01:06:48,135 --> 01:06:51,676
Like, the teachers need
to respect distances too.

1062
01:06:51,802 --> 01:06:54,967
So she asked if anyone had a complaint.

1063
01:06:55,093 --> 01:06:57,092
What’s she up to?

1064
01:06:57,343 --> 01:06:59,176
I don’t get it.

1065
01:06:59,343 --> 01:07:01,801
It’s outrageous. It’s not possible!

1066
01:07:01,927 --> 01:07:04,342
She said be careful. What’s the problem?

1067
01:07:04,468 --> 01:07:07,966
She’s full of bile, I think, but anyway.

1068
01:07:08,052 --> 01:07:10,426
Okay. And then?

1069
01:07:10,552 --> 01:07:12,966
Then two girls raised their hands.

1070
01:07:13,052 --> 01:07:16,175
Before they talked,
I told them to come outside.

1071
01:07:16,260 --> 01:07:17,551
We came here.

1072
01:07:17,677 --> 01:07:20,341
- Who were they?
- Never mind.

1073
01:07:20,427 --> 01:07:22,509
Come on, you can tell us.

1074
01:07:22,635 --> 01:07:26,591
At least tell us which class.
Seventh grade? Eighth?

1075
01:07:26,677 --> 01:07:29,841
I can’t say that either.
There’s a strict rule.

1076
01:07:29,927 --> 01:07:32,509
The director stressed that.

1077
01:07:32,635 --> 01:07:35,259
No names, to protect the students.

1078
01:07:35,385 --> 01:07:37,676
Who else was in the room, then?

1079
01:07:37,802 --> 01:07:40,008
Me, Kevser,

1080
01:07:40,093 --> 01:07:42,175
Saime, and the kids.

1081
01:07:42,260 --> 01:07:45,551
We talked to them here,
not in front of the other kids.

1082
01:07:45,677 --> 01:07:50,009
Doesn’t matter. Kevser will tell
everyone anyway.

1083
01:07:50,135 --> 01:07:52,134
What did the students say?

1084
01:07:55,760 --> 01:07:59,008
I feel bad even talking about it.

1085
01:07:59,093 --> 01:08:03,134
No, no. We have to know the allegations.

1086
01:08:04,677 --> 01:08:09,216
They said, you put your arm
around their waists and shoulders.

1087
01:08:09,302 --> 01:08:10,759
Me?

1088
01:08:11,635 --> 01:08:13,551
I’ve never done that.

1089
01:08:13,677 --> 01:08:17,550
I don’t even do that with my closest friend.

1090
01:08:17,635 --> 01:08:20,134
- What the hell?
- And me?

1091
01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:24,841
You keep pinching their cheeks.
That’s what they said.

1092
01:08:24,927 --> 01:08:27,634
Pinching? What pinching?

1093
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:30,300
They were ready to say more,

1094
01:08:30,385 --> 01:08:34,009
but I got worried
and cut them short.

1095
01:08:34,177 --> 01:08:35,717
God!

1096
01:08:36,010 --> 01:08:39,425
- Now, did I believe them...
- That doesn’t matter.

1097
01:08:39,510 --> 01:08:41,051
It’s not about you.

1098
01:08:41,177 --> 01:08:43,926
We’re trying to understand what happened.

1099
01:08:44,052 --> 01:08:47,509
That’s what I mean.
Believing isn’t the issue here.

1100
01:08:47,677 --> 01:08:50,092
Don’t get me started.

1101
01:08:50,427 --> 01:08:52,925
I’ve seen principals here in seven years.

1102
01:08:53,010 --> 01:08:55,091
You pull strings to get the job,

1103
01:08:55,177 --> 01:08:57,592
then you mess it up
and we suffer.

1104
01:08:57,718 --> 01:08:59,175
Nonsense.

1105
01:08:59,260 --> 01:09:00,842
Nonsense, how?

1106
01:09:00,968 --> 01:09:03,967
- Kenan, you’re wrong.
- The wrong’s been done.

1107
01:09:04,093 --> 01:09:07,176
Look, Kenan. You know I’m not a union member.

1108
01:09:07,302 --> 01:09:09,051
I have no Directorate pals.

1109
01:09:09,177 --> 01:09:11,800
So what? Everybody knows everything.

1110
01:09:11,885 --> 01:09:15,134
- Of course.
- Everybody knows everything, don’t worry.

1111
01:09:15,260 --> 01:09:20,384
A principal should know how to deal
with a crisis like this.

1112
01:09:20,510 --> 01:09:23,801
Maybe you’re mad at me because you think

1113
01:09:23,927 --> 01:09:25,884
you should be the principal.

1114
01:09:26,010 --> 01:09:28,676
- Not at all.
- Maybe you’re right.

1115
01:09:28,802 --> 01:09:30,842
You’ve been here longest.

1116
01:09:30,968 --> 01:09:33,759
But it’s not my fault
you didn’t get the offer.

1117
01:09:33,927 --> 01:09:35,467
I swear,

1118
01:09:35,635 --> 01:09:38,966
when they offered me the job,
first thing I said was

1119
01:09:39,052 --> 01:09:43,259
that whoever’s been here longest
should be principal.

1120
01:09:43,718 --> 01:09:45,300
Go ask them yourself.

1121
01:09:45,385 --> 01:09:46,634
That’s not the issue.

1122
01:09:46,760 --> 01:09:47,884
It is.

1123
01:09:48,010 --> 01:09:49,342
No, it’s not.

1124
01:09:49,635 --> 01:09:52,759
You’ve all known each other for years.

1125
01:09:52,885 --> 01:09:55,716
I came to this school after you.

1126
01:09:55,802 --> 01:09:57,301
I hear an allegation.

1127
01:09:57,468 --> 01:09:59,800
I don’t know you that well.

1128
01:09:59,885 --> 01:10:01,551
Naturally, I can’t be sure.

1129
01:10:01,718 --> 01:10:04,801
So I have to do what the regulations say.

1130
01:10:06,760 --> 01:10:08,842
What’s done is done.

1131
01:10:09,010 --> 01:10:11,091
Tell us who they were.

1132
01:10:11,177 --> 01:10:13,801
Don’t get me involved, please.

1133
01:10:13,927 --> 01:10:16,425
You’re already up to your neck in it.

1134
01:10:16,510 --> 01:10:17,967
No way.

1135
01:10:18,177 --> 01:10:19,967
Don’t get me in trouble.

1136
01:10:20,135 --> 01:10:22,758
You know there are strict rules.

1137
01:10:22,843 --> 01:10:25,176
Don’t talk like the principal.

1138
01:10:25,302 --> 01:10:26,217
What’ll we do?

1139
01:10:26,343 --> 01:10:27,883
Take up arms?

1140
01:10:27,968 --> 01:10:29,301
That’s what I’m saying.

1141
01:10:29,427 --> 01:10:32,342
What does it matter if you know?

1142
01:10:32,468 --> 01:10:34,759
Let it stay an enigma. So what?

1143
01:10:34,885 --> 01:10:38,926
Everyone at school will know, except us.

1144
01:10:39,052 --> 01:10:42,134
That’s absurd. The paranoia will kill us.

1145
01:10:42,302 --> 01:10:45,591
Everyone will hear soon, anyway.
Don’t leave us hanging.

1146
01:10:45,677 --> 01:10:48,051
So you’ll find out then.

1147
01:10:48,218 --> 01:10:50,967
Hang in there. Don’t get me in trouble.

1148
01:10:51,093 --> 01:10:53,051
You’re such a coward.

1149
01:10:53,302 --> 01:10:55,384
What’s the point of friendship

1150
01:10:55,510 --> 01:10:58,426
without some risk or sacrifice?

1151
01:10:58,552 --> 01:11:01,717
Don’t try to sway me by talking
about friendship.

1152
01:11:01,843 --> 01:11:02,884
It won’t work.

1153
01:11:03,010 --> 01:11:04,884
Look how he talks.

1154
01:11:05,010 --> 01:11:08,967
You know they tried to fire you
because you dated Firdevs?

1155
01:11:09,093 --> 01:11:10,717
We went and sorted it out.

1156
01:11:10,843 --> 01:11:14,591
We lied and swore for you. We took a risk.

1157
01:11:14,677 --> 01:11:17,592
Why hang on to a secret

1158
01:11:17,760 --> 01:11:19,592
that’ll come out soon anyway?

1159
01:11:19,760 --> 01:11:22,717
Come on. Who’d fire me because of Firdevs?

1160
01:11:23,010 --> 01:11:23,966
Nonsense.

1161
01:11:24,052 --> 01:11:26,216
The mayor had a thing for your girl.

1162
01:11:26,302 --> 01:11:29,759
I know, but once rejected, he backed off.

1163
01:11:29,884 --> 01:11:32,926
So, isn’t it natural
he wanted to get rid of you?

1164
01:11:33,635 --> 01:11:36,967
No way. Makes no sense.

1165
01:11:37,093 --> 01:11:37,926
Look...

1166
01:11:38,052 --> 01:11:41,217
Okay, have it your way. I got no more to say.

1167
01:11:41,342 --> 01:11:42,967
Look.

1168
01:11:43,343 --> 01:11:46,301
We promise we won’t say that we know.

1169
01:11:46,427 --> 01:11:48,091
Right, Kenan?

1170
01:11:48,177 --> 01:11:50,300
Sure. We know it’s forbidden.

1171
01:11:50,385 --> 01:11:52,216
Neither the students,

1172
01:11:52,302 --> 01:11:54,551
nor anyone else will have a clue.

1173
01:11:54,677 --> 01:11:56,759
It’s just not easy

1174
01:11:56,885 --> 01:11:59,259
to have this hanging over us.

1175
01:11:59,427 --> 01:12:01,091
The case is closed, okay?

1176
01:12:01,217 --> 01:12:03,426
No point in opening it again.

1177
01:12:04,342 --> 01:12:09,466
You’re the one who understands us best
in this dump, right?

1178
01:12:12,843 --> 01:12:15,051
Fuck you, Tolga.

1179
01:12:24,177 --> 01:12:28,009
<i>Do do la la
Three, four, do do la la...</i>

1180
01:12:29,427 --> 01:12:31,176
It’s how kids’ minds work.

1181
01:12:31,301 --> 01:12:33,134
You took her letter.

1182
01:12:33,260 --> 01:12:36,217
She’s getting revenge for that.

1183
01:12:36,385 --> 01:12:40,410
And she’s got a stupid friend
who’s pissed off at Kenan.

1184
01:12:40,549 --> 01:12:41,403
What?

1185
01:12:41,510 --> 01:12:44,676
Do you see
how their minds work at that age?

1186
01:12:44,802 --> 01:12:46,634
Hang on. Are you telling us...

1187
01:12:46,760 --> 01:12:48,134
Look.

1188
01:12:48,260 --> 01:12:52,175
You never heard anything from me. Understand?

1189
01:12:52,302 --> 01:12:54,800
Of course, we’ll act like we don’t know.

1190
01:12:54,885 --> 01:12:56,967
That’s the best thing to do.

1191
01:12:57,093 --> 01:12:59,259
Of course. We won’t act like kids.

1192
01:12:59,385 --> 01:13:02,259
Hold on,
are you definitely telling us it’s...

1193
01:13:02,385 --> 01:13:04,259
Exactly. Those idiots,

1194
01:13:04,552 --> 01:13:06,592
Sevim and Aylin.

1195
01:13:07,010 --> 01:13:10,342
Unfortunately. It surprised me too.

1196
01:13:10,968 --> 01:13:14,134
But maybe it shouldn’t have.

1197
01:13:15,093 --> 01:13:17,842
They say, “Nothing human is alien to me.”

1198
01:13:17,968 --> 01:13:20,426
Okay, but it wasn’t me

1199
01:13:20,968 --> 01:13:23,176
who found the letter.

1200
01:13:23,427 --> 01:13:26,008
I even took it to protect her.

1201
01:13:26,093 --> 01:13:29,008
How would she know that detail?

1202
01:13:29,093 --> 01:13:30,509
She thought you read it.

1203
01:13:30,635 --> 01:13:32,926
And how am I involved?

1204
01:13:33,052 --> 01:13:37,634
- I didn’t even know about the letter.
- I have no idea, Kenan.

1205
01:13:39,718 --> 01:13:44,051
But don’t even dream of
talking to them about this.

1206
01:13:44,177 --> 01:13:46,426
You’ll get into big trouble.

1207
01:13:46,635 --> 01:13:48,342
Case’s closed.

1208
01:13:48,552 --> 01:13:50,134
Don’t stir things up.

1209
01:13:50,260 --> 01:13:53,050
We know, the director warned us.

1210
01:13:53,135 --> 01:13:55,176
But it’s outrageous.

1211
01:13:55,343 --> 01:13:57,801
You keep saying “outrageous”.

1212
01:13:57,927 --> 01:14:01,051
It’s way beyond that now.

1213
01:14:04,468 --> 01:14:08,426
But I told you to stop giving them gifts.

1214
01:14:10,635 --> 01:14:12,384
Look at that.

1215
01:14:13,385 --> 01:14:15,217
Am I the guilty one now?

1216
01:14:15,343 --> 01:14:18,259
I didn’t mean it like that.

1217
01:14:18,385 --> 01:14:19,759
Well?

1218
01:14:19,885 --> 01:14:23,259
Around here,
it’s not like where you come from.

1219
01:14:23,635 --> 01:14:26,342
Every region has its own

1220
01:14:26,552 --> 01:14:28,633
realities and traditions.

1221
01:14:28,718 --> 01:14:30,092
Right?

1222
01:14:30,218 --> 01:14:32,800
Things like that might be
misunderstood here.

1223
01:14:32,885 --> 01:14:34,884
Don’t get me started

1224
01:14:35,010 --> 01:14:38,301
with your traditions, for God’s sake.

1225
01:14:38,427 --> 01:14:41,217
When it’s just talk, you talk so big.

1226
01:14:41,343 --> 01:14:43,634
But when it’s time to act,
you’re scared.

1227
01:14:43,760 --> 01:14:47,175
What’s the relation?
I’m just telling you the situation.

1228
01:14:47,260 --> 01:14:49,509
Fuck the goddamn situation!

1229
01:14:50,052 --> 01:14:52,051
You bow to consensus.

1230
01:14:52,177 --> 01:14:55,551
Why are you bleating about
other injustices, then?

1231
01:14:56,135 --> 01:14:57,384
Calm down.

1232
01:14:57,552 --> 01:15:01,092
Was it wrong to try to stretch your
narrow-minded habits?

1233
01:15:01,427 --> 01:15:04,134
Take a risk to bring civilization here?

1234
01:15:04,260 --> 01:15:05,966
That’ll bring civilization?

1235
01:15:06,052 --> 01:15:08,426
How else will it come?

1236
01:15:08,593 --> 01:15:12,842
Look around.
If we teachers don’t do it, who will?

1237
01:15:13,010 --> 01:15:17,092
If we’re also trapped in this oppressive
culture of yours,

1238
01:15:17,260 --> 01:15:18,884
who’s gonna do it?

1239
01:15:19,885 --> 01:15:22,842
Look, this place has even twisted
your thinking.

1240
01:15:22,968 --> 01:15:26,301
Where you’re from, maybe we’d already
be in court now.

1241
01:15:26,427 --> 01:15:27,758
What are you on about?

1242
01:15:27,843 --> 01:15:31,551
So you’ve always thought this way

1243
01:15:31,677 --> 01:15:34,051
about the gifts, but were never upfront.

1244
01:15:34,218 --> 01:15:38,301
You waited until now.
That’s actually what annoys me.

1245
01:15:39,260 --> 01:15:42,717
So what? Can’t we give a gift
to a good student?

1246
01:15:42,843 --> 01:15:44,801
No one’s saying that.

1247
01:15:44,927 --> 01:15:46,633
But if the school-board

1248
01:15:46,718 --> 01:15:50,426
hears about these gifts later,

1249
01:15:50,677 --> 01:15:53,842
it might cause serious problems.

1250
01:15:53,968 --> 01:15:56,051
That’s why.

1251
01:16:02,135 --> 01:16:04,759
You made me eat everything.

1252
01:16:05,927 --> 01:16:08,967
I polished it off so it’s not wasted.

1253
01:16:25,135 --> 01:16:28,217
- Good morning, sir.
- Good morning.

1254
01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:34,092
Good morning, sir.

1255
01:16:34,218 --> 01:16:35,676
Good morning.

1256
01:16:49,552 --> 01:16:51,176
Sit down.

1257
01:16:56,010 --> 01:16:57,967
Notebooks out.

1258
01:16:58,510 --> 01:17:00,134
Notebook.

1259
01:17:00,927 --> 01:17:03,009
- They’re out.
- No talking.

1260
01:17:03,177 --> 01:17:04,967
Notebooks out.

1261
01:17:05,343 --> 01:17:06,884
Title.

1262
01:17:07,010 --> 01:17:08,092
Perspective.

1263
01:17:08,218 --> 01:17:09,384
What?

1264
01:17:09,552 --> 01:17:10,551
Perspective.

1265
01:17:10,677 --> 01:17:12,926
What’s that?

1266
01:17:15,385 --> 01:17:16,426
Quiet.

1267
01:17:16,552 --> 01:17:20,051
- Do we write in our drawing pads?
- Whatever you like.

1268
01:17:23,760 --> 01:17:26,967
No talking. Write. Quiet!

1269
01:17:31,302 --> 01:17:33,509
No talking.

1270
01:17:47,135 --> 01:17:50,592
I’m trying to force something
into your tiny brains.

1271
01:17:50,802 --> 01:17:52,717
Don’t make it harder.

1272
01:17:52,968 --> 01:17:54,426
Alright?

1273
01:17:55,677 --> 01:17:58,551
None of you will become artists.

1274
01:17:58,885 --> 01:18:00,551
That’s clear.

1275
01:18:01,010 --> 01:18:04,717
You’ll plant potatoes and sugar beets,

1276
01:18:04,843 --> 01:18:08,634
so the rich can live comfortably.

1277
01:18:08,968 --> 01:18:11,551
Isn’t that so? Unfortunately, it is.

1278
01:18:11,802 --> 01:18:14,217
That’s reality. Nothing we can do.

1279
01:18:16,093 --> 01:18:17,801
But the show must go on.

1280
01:18:17,927 --> 01:18:20,426
So don’t talk
and write what I say.

1281
01:18:21,302 --> 01:18:24,426
Do we write the bottom part, sir?

1282
01:18:25,385 --> 01:18:26,301
What?

1283
01:18:26,427 --> 01:18:29,634
The part at the bottom. Do we write that too?

1284
01:18:32,552 --> 01:18:33,801
Why are you asking?

1285
01:18:33,927 --> 01:18:36,759
There’s space there. Shall we write that?

1286
01:18:36,885 --> 01:18:39,176
I said, why are you asking?

1287
01:18:40,802 --> 01:18:43,217
- Should we write that...
- I’m asking why.

1288
01:18:43,343 --> 01:18:44,842
Don’t you understand?

1289
01:18:45,135 --> 01:18:46,800
What language am I speaking?

1290
01:18:46,885 --> 01:18:50,592
You didn’t explain what we needed to write.

1291
01:18:54,427 --> 01:18:56,884
Write whatever you like.

1292
01:18:59,802 --> 01:19:02,426
What the hell am I doing here?

1293
01:19:35,052 --> 01:19:37,842
- You wanted to see me?
- Come in.

1294
01:19:44,260 --> 01:19:48,009
Some of the students came to me

1295
01:19:48,385 --> 01:19:51,051
and said that you insulted them.

1296
01:19:51,140 --> 01:19:53,240
- They got scared, I guess.
- Really?

1297
01:19:53,366 --> 01:19:55,676
They took it hard.

1298
01:19:55,968 --> 01:19:56,926
Who are they?

1299
01:19:57,052 --> 01:19:59,342
Doesn’t matter who.

1300
01:19:59,468 --> 01:20:04,134
They said you told them to
plant potatoes and whatever.

1301
01:20:04,968 --> 01:20:07,634
Just telling you to be careful.

1302
01:20:07,760 --> 01:20:08,634
Right.

1303
01:20:08,760 --> 01:20:11,884
Because there’ll be trouble
if they tell their parents.

1304
01:20:12,052 --> 01:20:13,759
You know they’re dreamers.

1305
01:20:13,885 --> 01:20:15,342
I get it.

1306
01:20:15,802 --> 01:20:17,425
Let’s take it easy. Okay?

1307
01:20:17,510 --> 01:20:19,051
Okay, I get it.

1308
01:20:19,260 --> 01:20:21,051
I really get it.

1309
01:20:27,302 --> 01:20:28,926
Sit down.

1310
01:20:31,302 --> 01:20:33,634
Come. Come here.

1311
01:20:35,593 --> 01:20:37,467
You. I’m telling you.

1312
01:20:37,593 --> 01:20:39,551
Come up here.

1313
01:20:52,010 --> 01:20:54,301
You’re lucky you live far.

1314
01:20:55,010 --> 01:20:57,342
You have a long ride to get here.

1315
01:20:57,760 --> 01:21:01,676
Otherwise, I’d expel you
from my class. Got it?

1316
01:21:04,593 --> 01:21:06,134
Go outside now.

1317
01:21:06,718 --> 01:21:08,926
Go and stand by the door.

1318
01:21:11,552 --> 01:21:13,342
Go on, out.

1319
01:21:17,968 --> 01:21:19,259
Go out.

1320
01:21:19,385 --> 01:21:20,509
Get out.

1321
01:21:20,635 --> 01:21:22,009
Out.

1322
01:21:37,843 --> 01:21:40,509
Anybody else itching for trouble?

1323
01:21:41,052 --> 01:21:44,051
Don’t be shy, we’ll sort it out.

1324
01:21:47,229 --> 01:21:48,260
Sefa,

1325
01:21:48,677 --> 01:21:51,132
- great tie!
- Yes, sir.

1326
01:21:51,260 --> 01:21:53,676
You should lend it to me one day.

1327
01:21:53,843 --> 01:21:56,384
Alright, I will.

1328
01:22:00,427 --> 01:22:01,550
- Sir?
- Yes?

1329
01:22:01,635 --> 01:22:04,717
You’re the first teacher to get mad at Sevim.

1330
01:22:05,177 --> 01:22:07,259
I wasn’t expecting it.

1331
01:22:07,802 --> 01:22:09,259
That’s how it goes.

1332
01:22:09,385 --> 01:22:11,133
I’m really surprised.

1333
01:22:11,218 --> 01:22:13,967
“Call no man happy till he dies.”

1334
01:22:14,177 --> 01:22:16,384
- Isn’t that right?
- Yes, sir.

1335
01:22:16,677 --> 01:22:18,967
My advice is,

1336
01:22:19,260 --> 01:22:23,508
don’t believe the gossipers
and schemers in class.

1337
01:22:23,593 --> 01:22:25,217
- Okay?
- Okay, sir.

1338
01:22:25,343 --> 01:22:28,426
If you see any of their nonsense,
come tell me.

1339
01:22:28,593 --> 01:22:30,926
- Alright?
- Alright, sir.

1340
01:22:31,218 --> 01:22:32,759
Okay.

1341
01:22:33,593 --> 01:22:34,426
Yes?

1342
01:22:34,552 --> 01:22:36,217
Sevim told my sister...

1343
01:22:36,343 --> 01:22:39,842
Alright, boy, but not now.
I meant from now on.

1344
01:22:40,260 --> 01:22:43,134
Don’t bring up the past like that.

1345
01:22:47,968 --> 01:22:49,550
We all know

1346
01:22:49,635 --> 01:22:54,592
exactly who and what these people are.

1347
01:22:56,010 --> 01:22:57,716
It’s just a few, isn’t it?

1348
01:22:57,802 --> 01:22:59,176
Yes.

1349
01:23:00,385 --> 01:23:04,009
There are always people like that.

1350
01:23:04,177 --> 01:23:07,258
What’s important is
knowing how to deal with them.

1351
01:23:07,343 --> 01:23:11,551
The best way is to keep your distance.

1352
01:23:12,052 --> 01:23:14,384
Stop being their friend.

1353
01:23:14,635 --> 01:23:15,842
Alright?

1354
01:23:15,968 --> 01:23:17,176
Alright, sir.

1355
01:23:47,260 --> 01:23:49,426
Don’t lean on the wall.

1356
01:23:51,718 --> 01:23:53,342
I said, don’t lean.

1357
01:23:53,468 --> 01:23:55,759
Stand away from the wall.

1358
01:23:58,593 --> 01:24:00,842
Yes, you. Away from the wall.

1359
01:24:01,635 --> 01:24:03,134
Away.

1360
01:24:31,927 --> 01:24:34,259
Look at us, Samet.

1361
01:24:34,718 --> 01:24:37,176
Our troubles are far from over.

1362
01:24:37,302 --> 01:24:40,091
I even keep away from my niece.

1363
01:24:40,177 --> 01:24:42,426
And yet, look what they say.

1364
01:24:42,718 --> 01:24:45,551
I’ve lost my appetite ever since.

1365
01:24:46,177 --> 01:24:49,051
Should’ve kept to herding
instead of teaching.

1366
01:24:49,218 --> 01:24:51,551
At least I’d have some peace.

1367
01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:53,384
That’s for sure.

1368
01:24:53,760 --> 01:24:57,551
Better off herding sheep in the mountains
than at school.

1369
01:24:59,177 --> 01:25:02,009
Tolga pretends to empathize with us,

1370
01:25:02,135 --> 01:25:05,217
but he laughs at us behind our backs
with Firdevs.

1371
01:25:05,343 --> 01:25:08,676
I heard them today.
I think they’re enjoying this.

1372
01:25:08,802 --> 01:25:09,801
Really? Where?

1373
01:25:09,968 --> 01:25:11,426
In the teachers’ room.

1374
01:25:11,843 --> 01:25:14,592
They stopped talking when they saw me.

1375
01:25:16,010 --> 01:25:18,717
Let them fucking laugh.

1376
01:25:19,593 --> 01:25:21,591
If I could only leave this hole,

1377
01:25:21,677 --> 01:25:23,842
I’d never see any of them again.

1378
01:25:23,968 --> 01:25:25,467
Okay,

1379
01:25:26,177 --> 01:25:28,134
but it’s still hard to digest.

1380
01:25:28,260 --> 01:25:29,883
We’re colleagues, after all.

1381
01:25:29,968 --> 01:25:32,717
Fuck colleagues.

1382
01:25:33,260 --> 01:25:35,842
Everybody’s out to screw each other.

1383
01:25:36,093 --> 01:25:38,258
They’re all miserable, don’t you see?

1384
01:25:38,343 --> 01:25:40,467
Yes, exactly.

1385
01:25:41,843 --> 01:25:44,550
But it really was a close shave.

1386
01:25:44,635 --> 01:25:47,092
We almost made headlines.

1387
01:25:47,385 --> 01:25:50,217
Don’t exaggerate. No need to be that scared.

1388
01:25:50,343 --> 01:25:54,592
Why should I be scared
after all I’ve been through?

1389
01:25:54,760 --> 01:25:56,509
You’ve been here seven years.

1390
01:25:56,635 --> 01:25:58,592
Boredom’s all you’ve seen.

1391
01:25:58,718 --> 01:26:02,092
That’s not true. Don’t say that.

1392
01:26:03,760 --> 01:26:05,820
Even at the start,

1393
01:26:05,906 --> 01:26:07,563
it wasn’t easy.

1394
01:26:07,669 --> 01:26:09,800
When I found out
I’d been posted here

1395
01:26:09,927 --> 01:26:12,342
in August

1396
01:26:12,908 --> 01:26:14,592
seven years ago,

1397
01:26:14,760 --> 01:26:17,592
I was up in the mountains near our village

1398
01:26:17,802 --> 01:26:19,967
herding my dad’s flock.

1399
01:26:20,552 --> 01:26:23,717
I felt relieved now that I had a career.

1400
01:26:23,843 --> 01:26:26,634
I was so happy.

1401
01:26:28,510 --> 01:26:32,759
And the same day we heard that
my brother-in-law had died.

1402
01:26:33,427 --> 01:26:35,134
He’d just married my sister.

1403
01:26:35,260 --> 01:26:37,301
What happened?

1404
01:26:38,218 --> 01:26:42,176
He went to Diyarbakir,
where my sister was teaching.

1405
01:26:42,593 --> 01:26:45,092
Nobody knew him there, of course.

1406
01:26:45,260 --> 01:26:48,759
They thought he was a spy
and shot him right downtown.

1407
01:26:48,927 --> 01:26:50,467
No way.

1408
01:26:51,968 --> 01:26:54,551
Then the organization apologized.

1409
01:26:54,760 --> 01:26:57,134
They thought he was a military spy.

1410
01:26:57,468 --> 01:26:59,259
The guy’s fucking dead.

1411
01:26:59,718 --> 01:27:01,717
What good’s an apology?

1412
01:27:02,218 --> 01:27:03,633
That’s bad.

1413
01:27:03,718 --> 01:27:08,009
Talking in blood has become
the fate of our East, unfortunately.

1414
01:27:08,677 --> 01:27:12,509
I couldn’t even celebrate becoming a teacher.

1415
01:27:12,635 --> 01:27:16,717
I found out what it’s like to feel
joy and sorrow at the same time.

1416
01:27:31,885 --> 01:27:34,592
Hey, you’re leaving this year.

1417
01:27:35,427 --> 01:27:39,301
We don’t have one photo together.
Been housemates for two years.

1418
01:27:39,552 --> 01:27:41,216
Let’s take a photo here.

1419
01:27:41,302 --> 01:27:42,081
Huh?

1420
01:27:42,202 --> 01:27:43,409
Yeah?

1421
01:27:44,510 --> 01:27:46,341
Okay. What, a selfie?

1422
01:27:46,427 --> 01:27:48,550
No. Something better.

1423
01:27:48,635 --> 01:27:50,676
With the view behind.

1424
01:27:54,260 --> 01:27:55,717
Okay.

1425
01:27:56,655 --> 01:27:57,835
How do you want it?

1426
01:27:57,959 --> 01:27:59,333
Come here.

1427
01:28:02,135 --> 01:28:05,176
- You’re putting it there.
- I’ll set the timer.

1428
01:28:07,885 --> 01:28:09,425
The view’s beautiful.

1429
01:28:09,510 --> 01:28:11,592
- Gonna stand like that?
- Yeah.

1430
01:28:12,760 --> 01:28:15,051
- Ready?
- Go ahead.

1431
01:29:54,510 --> 01:29:56,009
How are you? Any better?

1432
01:29:56,135 --> 01:29:58,051
I’m good. Thanks.

1433
01:29:58,385 --> 01:30:00,134
After being on the drip, huh?

1434
01:30:00,302 --> 01:30:01,759
Yeah, right.

1435
01:30:03,177 --> 01:30:04,509
I’ll take this.

1436
01:30:04,635 --> 01:30:05,926
Go ahead.

1437
01:30:06,427 --> 01:30:08,301
Want me to get someone?

1438
01:30:08,593 --> 01:30:10,091
No need. I’ll manage.

1439
01:30:10,177 --> 01:30:13,341
The list’s inside. Even the boot sizes.

1440
01:30:13,427 --> 01:30:15,509
- Hand them out.
- Okay.

1441
01:30:21,510 --> 01:30:23,092
Come in.

1442
01:30:26,510 --> 01:30:28,342
We asked for a coat for you.

1443
01:30:28,468 --> 01:30:30,634
Take any coat you like from the box.

1444
01:30:30,802 --> 01:30:32,342
Okay, sir.

1445
01:30:49,927 --> 01:30:51,384
I got one.

1446
01:30:51,635 --> 01:30:54,966
Good. There are bags there. Put it in one.

1447
01:30:55,052 --> 01:30:56,384
Alright.

1448
01:31:00,677 --> 01:31:03,217
Look in the box, Delila.

1449
01:31:03,802 --> 01:31:07,634
You can take any coat
and sweater you like, alright?

1450
01:31:22,760 --> 01:31:24,175
Can I take these, sir?

1451
01:31:24,260 --> 01:31:28,009
Okay. There’s a bag behind you.

1452
01:31:28,177 --> 01:31:29,967
Put them in that.

1453
01:31:31,468 --> 01:31:35,217
Enjoy them. Don’t show anyone.

1454
01:31:38,427 --> 01:31:41,051
Tell the next person to come in.

1455
01:31:45,968 --> 01:31:48,217
Thanks, sir. Goodbye.

1456
01:31:55,968 --> 01:31:57,509
Come in.

1457
01:32:01,177 --> 01:32:03,384
Are you in my class?

1458
01:32:03,718 --> 01:32:04,926
Yes.

1459
01:32:05,052 --> 01:32:07,092
- What was your name?
- Halime.

1460
01:32:07,218 --> 01:32:08,634
Right.

1461
01:32:09,718 --> 01:32:12,091
Get what you want from the box.

1462
01:32:12,177 --> 01:32:13,592
It says boots here.

1463
01:32:13,718 --> 01:32:15,092
Okay.

1464
01:32:16,343 --> 01:32:17,967
What does your father do?

1465
01:32:18,135 --> 01:32:19,717
He’s not here.

1466
01:32:20,968 --> 01:32:23,051
Is he in town?

1467
01:32:25,302 --> 01:32:28,092
Your parents are alive though, right?

1468
01:32:28,343 --> 01:32:29,717
Yes.

1469
01:32:30,177 --> 01:32:31,509
Okay.

1470
01:32:54,427 --> 01:32:56,051
- Have you chosen?
- Yes.

1471
01:32:56,177 --> 01:32:58,092
Good. Nice choice.

1472
01:32:58,218 --> 01:32:59,634
Not too small for you?

1473
01:32:59,802 --> 01:33:01,259
No, they’ll fit.

1474
01:33:01,718 --> 01:33:03,717
There’s a bag behind you.

1475
01:33:03,927 --> 01:33:05,592
Put them in it.

1476
01:34:09,385 --> 01:34:11,092
You okay?

1477
01:34:56,760 --> 01:34:59,601
<i>We were thrown into the air.</i>

1478
01:34:59,732 --> 01:35:01,580
<i>I remember being on the ground.</i>

1479
01:35:01,718 --> 01:35:04,073
<i>Everyone was shouting and moaning.</i>

1480
01:35:04,348 --> 01:35:06,246
I was still in one piece there.

1481
01:35:06,379 --> 01:35:10,759
A steel ball had severed a vein
and gangrene set in.

1482
01:35:10,885 --> 01:35:12,091
Unbelievable.

1483
01:35:12,177 --> 01:35:14,466
And then? Ambulances and police?

1484
01:35:14,552 --> 01:35:19,926
God, no. A police officer even said
sweep them up to his squad.

1485
01:35:20,135 --> 01:35:21,591
It’s in the report.

1486
01:35:21,677 --> 01:35:26,217
The ambulances were so late
and taxis refused to take the wounded.

1487
01:35:26,343 --> 01:35:28,274
Didn’t want their seats dirtied.

1488
01:35:28,405 --> 01:35:29,634
Yeah.

1489
01:35:30,010 --> 01:35:32,009
That and much worse.

1490
01:35:32,427 --> 01:35:36,717
I only made it to the hospital
because a guy convinced a taxi driver.

1491
01:35:36,885 --> 01:35:39,551
Otherwise... I lost many friends there.

1492
01:35:40,010 --> 01:35:42,342
Did you see that guy later?

1493
01:35:42,446 --> 01:35:43,677
Yes.

1494
01:35:43,760 --> 01:35:46,176
He reached out
five or six months later.

1495
01:35:46,302 --> 01:35:48,301
He’s from the Eastern branch.

1496
01:35:48,427 --> 01:35:50,092
The time in hospital sucked.

1497
01:35:50,218 --> 01:35:51,883
Spent eight months there.

1498
01:35:51,968 --> 01:35:54,467
Most doctors were from our union.

1499
01:35:54,843 --> 01:35:57,676
They really tried to save the leg,
but failed.

1500
01:35:57,843 --> 01:36:00,717
After they cut it off, I thought I’d die.

1501
01:36:00,843 --> 01:36:05,092
I never thought such pain was possible.

1502
01:36:06,968 --> 01:36:10,051
If they’d said, “We kill your parents
and it stops”,

1503
01:36:10,177 --> 01:36:12,342
I’d have gladly said yes.

1504
01:36:12,510 --> 01:36:14,842
Just to stop the pain.

1505
01:36:17,177 --> 01:36:20,008
Sorry for telling you all this while eating.

1506
01:36:20,093 --> 01:36:22,551
It’s fine.

1507
01:36:24,427 --> 01:36:26,551
It’s really unbelievable.

1508
01:36:26,677 --> 01:36:28,467
I’m lost for words.

1509
01:36:28,593 --> 01:36:31,717
You can’t grasp certain things
without experience.

1510
01:36:31,843 --> 01:36:33,759
This is definitely one.

1511
01:36:33,885 --> 01:36:37,967
Do the other teachers at school
know about the explosion?

1512
01:36:38,093 --> 01:36:41,426
No, they think it was an accident.
Some might know.

1513
01:36:41,552 --> 01:36:43,092
Don’t they ask?

1514
01:36:43,218 --> 01:36:45,259
Not really. My school is big.

1515
01:36:45,385 --> 01:36:48,050
Everyone minds their own business.

1516
01:36:48,135 --> 01:36:50,842
And I’m not that close to anyone.

1517
01:36:51,218 --> 01:36:53,676
It’s better they don’t know.

1518
01:36:54,218 --> 01:36:57,508
They’d only judge you.

1519
01:36:57,593 --> 01:37:00,634
Funny thing is, until this happened,

1520
01:37:00,843 --> 01:37:03,634
even my family didn’t know about anything.

1521
01:37:03,802 --> 01:37:06,800
They follow politics,
but they’re not radical.

1522
01:37:06,885 --> 01:37:08,801
Mine are the same.

1523
01:37:10,802 --> 01:37:14,176
How’s your family gonna be radical?

1524
01:37:14,302 --> 01:37:17,176
They’ve spent their lives in a tiny village.

1525
01:37:17,427 --> 01:37:21,884
Their only cares are their cattle
and marrying you off.

1526
01:37:22,052 --> 01:37:23,508
Don’t say that.

1527
01:37:23,593 --> 01:37:27,676
I’ve seen such radicals and fanatics
in that tiny village.

1528
01:37:28,093 --> 01:37:30,259
Kenan’s from an Alawi village.

1529
01:37:30,385 --> 01:37:32,342
Same culture as you.

1530
01:37:32,552 --> 01:37:35,176
I don’t care about that sectarian stuff.

1531
01:37:35,343 --> 01:37:38,008
- They’re all primitive.
- Definitely.

1532
01:37:38,093 --> 01:37:39,467
Sure.

1533
01:37:39,718 --> 01:37:43,509
But they must’ve been devastated.

1534
01:37:44,510 --> 01:37:46,426
- Who?
- Your family.

1535
01:37:46,552 --> 01:37:48,384
Of course.

1536
01:37:49,260 --> 01:37:51,926
That’s a whole different drama

1537
01:37:52,052 --> 01:37:53,800
I won’t go into.

1538
01:37:53,885 --> 01:37:55,925
You can’t tell from your walk.

1539
01:37:56,010 --> 01:37:58,259
Honestly! You walk better than me.

1540
01:37:58,385 --> 01:37:59,426
Thanks.

1541
01:37:59,552 --> 01:38:01,342
It’s a quality prosthesis.

1542
01:38:01,468 --> 01:38:05,342
The government provides some,
but none as good as this.

1543
01:38:05,468 --> 01:38:07,551
Theirs make you limp.

1544
01:38:07,760 --> 01:38:10,717
If you get your own, they only pay
a small amount.

1545
01:38:10,843 --> 01:38:12,967
- Well, that’s something.
- Yeah.

1546
01:38:15,218 --> 01:38:17,758
What about the car, by the way?

1547
01:38:17,843 --> 01:38:20,009
Waiting for the dealer to bring it.

1548
01:38:20,135 --> 01:38:21,509
Oh, so you got one?

1549
01:38:21,677 --> 01:38:23,009
For sure.

1550
01:38:24,385 --> 01:38:25,384
Fantastic!

1551
01:38:25,510 --> 01:38:29,216
It takes a while, switching the gas
and brake pedals.

1552
01:38:29,302 --> 01:38:31,759
That’s great. Wonderful.

1553
01:38:31,885 --> 01:38:32,926
Congratulations.

1554
01:38:33,093 --> 01:38:36,634
It’ll change your life, you’ll see.

1555
01:38:36,802 --> 01:38:40,134
So, when’s it coming from the dealer?

1556
01:38:48,177 --> 01:38:50,509
Can I take a photo of you?

1557
01:38:51,302 --> 01:38:52,801
Why?

1558
01:38:53,593 --> 01:38:55,884
I mean, sure you can.

1559
01:38:56,468 --> 01:38:59,176
You have quite an interesting face, actually.

1560
01:38:59,343 --> 01:39:03,384
A face that somehow embodies
the story of this land.

1561
01:39:03,927 --> 01:39:06,342
- You think so?
- Yeah. Definitely.

1562
01:39:09,010 --> 01:39:12,259
I’ll use it for my portrait drawings.

1563
01:39:12,385 --> 01:39:14,134
Okay, sure.

1564
01:39:14,302 --> 01:39:16,634
Move the plate a bit.

1565
01:39:19,552 --> 01:39:21,134
You, move your arm.

1566
01:39:21,343 --> 01:39:23,259
Out of the frame.

1567
01:39:24,169 --> 01:39:25,508
I’ll do it like this.

1568
01:39:25,593 --> 01:39:27,801
What should I do? Look at you?

1569
01:39:27,927 --> 01:39:30,676
Nothing. Just look at the camera.

1570
01:39:31,385 --> 01:39:35,634
At first, it looks like an ordinary face.

1571
01:39:35,843 --> 01:39:38,967
But then there seems to be a strange sorrow

1572
01:39:39,093 --> 01:39:42,134
somewhere deep inside.

1573
01:39:42,802 --> 01:39:44,884
I’m not exactly sure, though.

1574
01:39:45,593 --> 01:39:47,717
Sorry if I got a bit weird.

1575
01:39:47,843 --> 01:39:49,717
No, it’s okay. Thanks.

1576
01:39:49,843 --> 01:39:51,426
Don’t move.

1577
01:39:52,552 --> 01:39:54,092
Don’t smile.

1578
01:40:02,010 --> 01:40:06,091
By the way, my parents will visit my sister
in Istanbul soon.

1579
01:40:06,177 --> 01:40:08,467
You two can come, and I’ll cook for you.

1580
01:40:08,593 --> 01:40:12,676
Alright, but we wouldn’t want
to make work for you.

1581
01:40:12,802 --> 01:40:14,592
It’s no trouble.

1582
01:40:15,135 --> 01:40:17,967
Don’t expect a feast, but you won’t starve.

1583
01:40:18,093 --> 01:40:20,759
Spaghetti and wine are guaranteed.

1584
01:40:20,885 --> 01:40:22,301
That’s great.

1585
01:40:22,635 --> 01:40:24,342
- My favorites.
- Yeah?

1586
01:40:24,468 --> 01:40:25,967
I love spaghetti and wine.

1587
01:40:26,093 --> 01:40:27,426
Okay.

1588
01:40:27,635 --> 01:40:29,259
I love them.

1589
01:40:38,843 --> 01:40:40,676
The weather’s terrible.

1590
01:40:40,802 --> 01:40:41,884
Really?

1591
01:40:42,010 --> 01:40:43,926
Ice all over.

1592
01:40:44,052 --> 01:40:47,051
They let the tap at the mosque freeze.

1593
01:40:47,260 --> 01:40:50,675
I told them a hundred times,
leave the water running.

1594
01:40:50,760 --> 01:40:54,050
Even a dribble would be enough.

1595
01:40:54,135 --> 01:40:56,759
Some idiot always turns it off.

1596
01:40:59,177 --> 01:41:02,926
It’s so cold.
I couldn’t see where I was going.

1597
01:41:03,052 --> 01:41:05,759
It’s dark as a dungeon out there.

1598
01:41:08,093 --> 01:41:10,634
I better go
after I finish this, then.

1599
01:41:10,802 --> 01:41:11,884
What?

1600
01:41:12,093 --> 01:41:13,842
I said, I better go.

1601
01:41:14,010 --> 01:41:15,926
Why? It’s early.

1602
01:41:16,927 --> 01:41:19,592
No, I better go. The electricity’s cut off.

1603
01:41:19,760 --> 01:41:22,426
Exactly, why sit in the dark at home?

1604
01:41:22,552 --> 01:41:24,467
- His mother’s waiting.
- What?

1605
01:41:24,593 --> 01:41:26,426
His mother’s waiting.

1606
01:41:27,510 --> 01:41:31,301
Go to their street at any time of the night

1607
01:41:31,468 --> 01:41:35,217
and you’ll see a tiny silhouette
in the window.

1608
01:41:36,177 --> 01:41:38,259
That silhouette is his mother.

1609
01:41:38,760 --> 01:41:42,426
She waits there all night until he returns.

1610
01:41:43,343 --> 01:41:45,217
I’ve told her a million times,

1611
01:41:45,343 --> 01:41:48,050
I don’t know when I’ll be back.

1612
01:41:48,135 --> 01:41:49,676
But she doesn’t listen.

1613
01:41:49,802 --> 01:41:53,592
Soon as I get near, she turns off the light
and goes to bed.

1614
01:41:53,718 --> 01:41:56,634
Like I won’t see.
At least wait with the lights off.

1615
01:41:56,760 --> 01:41:59,842
I don’t blame her. She doesn’t trust you.

1616
01:42:00,010 --> 01:42:01,801
It’s better now.

1617
01:42:01,968 --> 01:42:04,051
When he was younger, she’d go out

1618
01:42:04,177 --> 01:42:07,342
and look around for him at dusk.

1619
01:42:07,677 --> 01:42:09,884
She can’t do it as much now.

1620
01:42:10,010 --> 01:42:12,467
Poor woman just waits at the window.

1621
01:42:12,760 --> 01:42:15,676
So she realized it back then.

1622
01:42:17,968 --> 01:42:19,426
What?

1623
01:42:19,843 --> 01:42:22,092
- “What” what?
- What did she realize?

1624
01:42:22,218 --> 01:42:27,801
That you’re a restless,
good-for-nothing vagabond.

1625
01:42:28,468 --> 01:42:31,092
That’s how it is here.

1626
01:42:31,677 --> 01:42:35,509
It’s not just mine.
Mothers here are on pins and needles.

1627
01:42:35,760 --> 01:42:37,509
When I was just seven,

1628
01:42:38,218 --> 01:42:41,759
on a dark night like this,

1629
01:42:41,885 --> 01:42:46,092
the gendarmes came and took my dad,
right out of his bed.

1630
01:42:47,177 --> 01:42:49,801
As they were taking him away,
he said, “wait.”

1631
01:42:49,927 --> 01:42:51,176
Stopped everyone.

1632
01:42:51,468 --> 01:42:53,926
Searched his pockets.

1633
01:42:54,385 --> 01:42:59,217
Found a lottery ticket, gave it to my mom
and that was it.

1634
01:42:59,343 --> 01:43:01,426
Never saw him again.

1635
01:43:01,885 --> 01:43:05,467
That’s why my mom has worried
about me for years.

1636
01:43:05,593 --> 01:43:08,258
Not because I’m restless.

1637
01:43:08,343 --> 01:43:09,801
Anyway,

1638
01:43:10,343 --> 01:43:13,967
what’s interesting is that

1639
01:43:14,552 --> 01:43:18,301
the only thing I remember from that night,

1640
01:43:18,552 --> 01:43:20,217
isn’t my father.

1641
01:43:20,510 --> 01:43:24,051
It’s the flicker on the ceiling
from the stove.

1642
01:43:27,052 --> 01:43:29,759
I wondered for years

1643
01:43:29,885 --> 01:43:32,176
why I remembered that.

1644
01:43:32,468 --> 01:43:38,426
Then I realized it’s not about
what has happened,

1645
01:43:38,635 --> 01:43:41,134
it’s about what’s beyond the visible.

1646
01:43:41,260 --> 01:43:43,342
What goes on inside.

1647
01:43:44,552 --> 01:43:47,092
- Win anything?
- What?

1648
01:43:47,552 --> 01:43:49,925
The lottery ticket, did you win?

1649
01:43:50,010 --> 01:43:51,008
Nothing.

1650
01:43:51,093 --> 01:43:53,008
Not even your money back?

1651
01:43:53,093 --> 01:43:54,216
No.

1652
01:43:54,302 --> 01:43:58,009
Fuck that. You won nothing from
a ticket like that?

1653
01:43:58,177 --> 01:43:59,551
Forget that stuff.

1654
01:43:59,677 --> 01:44:02,092
Always the same story.

1655
01:44:02,302 --> 01:44:05,301
Same old words. Every year,
he pretends to go.

1656
01:44:05,468 --> 01:44:09,384
Then I see him kicking back in the tea house.

1657
01:44:09,843 --> 01:44:13,551
You need to sort yourself out.
Don’t talk the talk,

1658
01:44:13,718 --> 01:44:16,217
if you can’t walk the walk.

1659
01:44:16,343 --> 01:44:18,237
Want to go, do you? Then go.

1660
01:44:18,323 --> 01:44:20,467
You think guerrilla life is a picnic?

1661
01:44:20,593 --> 01:44:23,009
Find a decent job,

1662
01:44:23,177 --> 01:44:25,717
so your mother can sleep at night.

1663
01:44:25,843 --> 01:44:27,383
Save your mother first,

1664
01:44:27,468 --> 01:44:30,051
then you can save the world.

1665
01:44:30,177 --> 01:44:33,842
Fine, Vahit. If that’s what you think,
I’ll shut up.

1666
01:44:33,968 --> 01:44:35,009
Look.

1667
01:44:35,135 --> 01:44:37,134
Times have changed.

1668
01:44:37,302 --> 01:44:40,592
It’s not the same. It’s a vendetta now.

1669
01:44:40,718 --> 01:44:42,717
Everyone’s out for revenge.

1670
01:44:42,927 --> 01:44:45,551
Nothing’s clear anymore.

1671
01:44:45,802 --> 01:44:47,884
No one knows who wants what,

1672
01:44:48,010 --> 01:44:50,466
or who won’t give what,
and why not?

1673
01:44:50,552 --> 01:44:54,676
It’s obscure on all sides.

1674
01:44:55,052 --> 01:44:56,592
Look here.

1675
01:44:56,718 --> 01:44:58,675
Enter the swamp, you’ll sink.

1676
01:44:58,760 --> 01:45:00,509
That’s for sure.

1677
01:45:00,802 --> 01:45:03,634
But if you want to drain the swamp,

1678
01:45:03,802 --> 01:45:07,175
you gotta be smart and not enter it.

1679
01:45:07,260 --> 01:45:11,217
And you gotta give it time.

1680
01:45:11,510 --> 01:45:15,009
If you want to sink, that’s up to you.
Right, teacher?

1681
01:45:15,135 --> 01:45:16,258
Know what I think?

1682
01:45:16,343 --> 01:45:20,716
If you put up shelves
and put that mess lying around on them,

1683
01:45:20,802 --> 01:45:23,342
the shop would look fresher.

1684
01:45:24,260 --> 01:45:27,176
Your heart’s drying up, Vahit.

1685
01:45:27,635 --> 01:45:29,592
You seem gripped by fear.

1686
01:45:29,718 --> 01:45:32,050
Must be your age. But that’s okay.

1687
01:45:32,135 --> 01:45:33,717
Who’s talking about fear?

1688
01:45:33,843 --> 01:45:36,133
There’s more to life
than a full belly.

1689
01:45:36,218 --> 01:45:38,509
- Like what?
- Lots of things!

1690
01:45:38,635 --> 01:45:42,466
I’ll sink if I fucking must.
What have I got to lose?

1691
01:45:42,552 --> 01:45:44,009
What have you got?

1692
01:45:44,135 --> 01:45:46,716
What about your life, idiot?

1693
01:45:46,802 --> 01:45:49,092
And your youth.

1694
01:45:49,510 --> 01:45:51,884
You think that’s nothing?

1695
01:45:53,260 --> 01:45:56,133
You’re just blowing hot air.

1696
01:45:56,218 --> 01:45:58,342
Talking nonsense.

1697
01:45:58,468 --> 01:46:01,592
A life is valuable
even if it’s aimless,

1698
01:46:01,718 --> 01:46:03,634
faithless and dishonorable?

1699
01:46:03,760 --> 01:46:05,634
Give me a little whisky.

1700
01:46:05,885 --> 01:46:07,801
Of course it is.

1701
01:46:07,927 --> 01:46:09,759
It definitely is.

1702
01:46:10,635 --> 01:46:12,301
For sure it is.

1703
01:46:12,843 --> 01:46:17,717
You think anyone
without a Mauser is a lowlife.

1704
01:46:19,010 --> 01:46:20,342
Don’t you?

1705
01:46:20,593 --> 01:46:22,634
Who was it that said,

1706
01:46:23,792 --> 01:46:29,301
“Youth is such a wonderful thing.
What a pity it’s wasted on the young”?

1707
01:46:30,177 --> 01:46:33,717
So, we’re aimless,
faithless and dishonorable?

1708
01:46:33,843 --> 01:46:35,675
No one said that.

1709
01:46:35,760 --> 01:46:38,009
But if you carry on, someone will.

1710
01:46:38,135 --> 01:46:40,467
So what if they do?

1711
01:46:40,635 --> 01:46:43,259
It’s your problem.
Why you fucking asking me?

1712
01:46:43,385 --> 01:46:45,384
But one day they will.

1713
01:46:45,552 --> 01:46:49,426
They’ll need to have some guts to say that.

1714
01:46:49,635 --> 01:46:51,884
They’ll need balls of steel
to say that.

1715
01:46:52,052 --> 01:46:53,717
Whoever fucking says that,

1716
01:46:53,843 --> 01:46:57,134
I’ll make them piss from their belly.

1717
01:46:58,968 --> 01:47:02,801
Don’t be childish. What’s the gun for?

1718
01:47:04,677 --> 01:47:06,551
I’m surprised that

1719
01:47:06,718 --> 01:47:10,634
you didn’t give that asshole
what he deserved.

1720
01:47:10,927 --> 01:47:13,050
Always talking about honor.

1721
01:47:13,135 --> 01:47:16,091
What was I supposed to say to the guy?

1722
01:47:16,177 --> 01:47:17,426
You know what I mean.

1723
01:47:17,552 --> 01:47:19,634
Don’t talk in riddles.

1724
01:47:19,843 --> 01:47:22,967
I said it, so you know your enemies
from your friends.

1725
01:47:23,093 --> 01:47:26,070
If someone stands

1726
01:47:26,156 --> 01:47:29,426
in the middle of the fucking village

1727
01:47:29,593 --> 01:47:31,384
bad-mouthing you,

1728
01:47:31,593 --> 01:47:33,551
I wouldn’t stand for it.

1729
01:47:33,760 --> 01:47:35,467
That’s how I am.

1730
01:47:35,593 --> 01:47:37,551
I wouldn’t allow it.

1731
01:47:37,677 --> 01:47:39,759
Am I the guilty one now?

1732
01:47:40,093 --> 01:47:42,759
I wish I hadn’t opened my mouth.

1733
01:47:42,885 --> 01:47:45,426
No one’s guilty.

1734
01:47:45,760 --> 01:47:48,717
If you don’t shut the guy up,

1735
01:47:48,843 --> 01:47:50,591
if you let him talk,

1736
01:47:50,677 --> 01:47:52,759
he’ll continue talking.

1737
01:47:53,760 --> 01:47:56,967
You always talk big,

1738
01:47:57,135 --> 01:48:01,717
but you won’t even stop
some guy mouthing off.

1739
01:48:02,468 --> 01:48:03,966
It’s not right.

1740
01:48:04,052 --> 01:48:05,676
Sorry.

1741
01:48:08,427 --> 01:48:10,426
Anyway, I’m going.

1742
01:48:12,010 --> 01:48:14,134
Stay put. We’ll go together.

1743
01:48:14,260 --> 01:48:15,926
- No.
- We’ll leave together.

1744
01:48:16,052 --> 01:48:18,591
I won’t be able to get up in the morning.

1745
01:48:18,677 --> 01:48:21,342
So don’t get up, then. Sit down.

1746
01:48:21,468 --> 01:48:22,842
No, no.

1747
01:48:23,427 --> 01:48:25,092
You two have fun.

1748
01:48:25,218 --> 01:48:26,884
Come on, sit down.

1749
01:48:27,510 --> 01:48:29,092
Hey.

1750
01:48:43,635 --> 01:48:46,051
What’s your problem, for God’s sake?

1751
01:48:47,302 --> 01:48:51,509
Aren’t you being too hard on him?

1752
01:48:51,885 --> 01:48:54,801
What were you on about? I didn’t even get it.

1753
01:48:55,010 --> 01:48:57,967
He comes here and keeps telling me,

1754
01:48:58,302 --> 01:49:01,801
“so and so said this and that about you.”

1755
01:49:01,927 --> 01:49:03,508
All kinds of crap.

1756
01:49:03,593 --> 01:49:06,759
The hell you doing about it, then?

1757
01:49:06,927 --> 01:49:08,675
Are you a statue or what?

1758
01:49:08,760 --> 01:49:10,967
Can’t you speak up?

1759
01:49:12,343 --> 01:49:13,758
It’s not the first time.

1760
01:49:13,843 --> 01:49:15,051
Yeah, okay.

1761
01:49:15,177 --> 01:49:17,091
I couldn’t take it anymore.

1762
01:49:17,177 --> 01:49:19,759
I still think you’re too hard on him.

1763
01:49:19,885 --> 01:49:22,842
It’s not always easy to step in.

1764
01:49:22,968 --> 01:49:25,051
People talk. Forget about it.

1765
01:49:25,218 --> 01:49:28,217
Look, you’ve upset the kid for nothing.

1766
01:49:28,552 --> 01:49:31,759
You should just make up with him.

1767
01:49:36,718 --> 01:49:41,717
You see,
it’s not easy to stand alone around here.

1768
01:49:41,927 --> 01:49:44,509
Everyone wants you to pick sides.

1769
01:49:44,677 --> 01:49:47,801
Some call you a coward, others a traitor.

1770
01:49:47,968 --> 01:49:51,301
Someone else comes and
says you’re a turncoat.

1771
01:49:51,427 --> 01:49:54,176
That’s how lives are lived out here.

1772
01:49:54,385 --> 01:49:57,384
I cured two cows for this one guy.

1773
01:49:57,843 --> 01:50:00,426
Then he came and shot my dog.

1774
01:50:01,177 --> 01:50:02,384
Why?

1775
01:50:02,510 --> 01:50:04,384
Because he’s human.

1776
01:50:05,010 --> 01:50:06,884
Yeah, he’s human.

1777
01:51:48,218 --> 01:51:49,592
What’s up? Still awake?

1778
01:51:49,718 --> 01:51:51,217
Yeah.

1779
01:51:51,510 --> 01:51:53,801
I gotta turn the school lights off.

1780
01:51:53,927 --> 01:51:55,592
I was on duty and forgot.

1781
01:51:55,718 --> 01:51:56,884
You have tea?

1782
01:51:57,010 --> 01:51:58,717
No, but I can make some.

1783
01:51:58,843 --> 01:52:01,884
Okay, you make tea. I’ll turn off the lights.

1784
01:52:02,052 --> 01:52:03,551
Okay.

1785
01:52:03,927 --> 01:52:05,009
The keys?

1786
01:52:05,135 --> 01:52:06,342
Right.

1787
01:52:59,135 --> 01:53:02,134
What’s that? Did you draw all that stuff?

1788
01:53:02,260 --> 01:53:04,091
- What?
- On the walls.

1789
01:53:04,177 --> 01:53:05,091
No.

1790
01:53:05,177 --> 01:53:08,801
There was a history teacher here before me.

1791
01:53:11,510 --> 01:53:13,050
When he left,

1792
01:53:13,135 --> 01:53:16,301
he even asked me to pay
for the kitchen counter.

1793
01:53:17,635 --> 01:53:20,134
- You shouldn’t have.
- Sure I didn’t.

1794
01:53:20,802 --> 01:53:24,509
When I didn’t pay up, he tried to take
the counter with him.

1795
01:53:24,718 --> 01:53:26,134
Asshole.

1796
01:53:26,510 --> 01:53:30,176
I’d never met such a creep before.

1797
01:53:31,302 --> 01:53:36,259
He kept burning his coal even in May
so no one else could use it.

1798
01:53:37,510 --> 01:53:38,967
So, yeah.

1799
01:53:39,302 --> 01:53:42,967
He was a real asshole.

1800
01:53:46,052 --> 01:53:48,092
His kid must’ve drawn them.

1801
01:53:48,218 --> 01:53:50,592
Why haven’t you painted the place since?

1802
01:53:50,718 --> 01:53:52,759
Why the hell should I?

1803
01:53:56,343 --> 01:53:57,801
Anyway.

1804
01:53:58,843 --> 01:54:00,509
By the way,

1805
01:54:01,302 --> 01:54:04,467
what happened is probably
all over the village.

1806
01:54:04,885 --> 01:54:06,301
What?

1807
01:54:06,593 --> 01:54:08,259
- You mean, that...?
- Yeah.

1808
01:54:08,468 --> 01:54:10,426
They make insinuations.

1809
01:54:10,557 --> 01:54:11,467
Like what?

1810
01:54:11,593 --> 01:54:13,801
Nothing really.

1811
01:54:14,218 --> 01:54:15,634
Just insinuations.

1812
01:54:15,802 --> 01:54:18,759
Fuck that. So what if it gets around?

1813
01:54:19,177 --> 01:54:20,801
“So what”?

1814
01:54:21,052 --> 01:54:22,759
They’ll tear us to pieces.

1815
01:54:22,885 --> 01:54:24,759
Nothing will happen.

1816
01:54:24,968 --> 01:54:26,551
Don’t be paranoid.

1817
01:54:26,843 --> 01:54:28,801
It’s not paranoia.

1818
01:54:30,635 --> 01:54:32,926
It’s just that I can’t get over it.

1819
01:54:33,052 --> 01:54:34,967
Over what?

1820
01:54:36,760 --> 01:54:40,176
I can’t get my head around it.

1821
01:54:40,302 --> 01:54:42,342
Or rather, can’t make sense of it.

1822
01:54:42,468 --> 01:54:44,634
How could these girls,

1823
01:54:45,135 --> 01:54:49,801
who I think so highly of
and who seem to adore me,

1824
01:54:49,927 --> 01:54:52,383
say such things about me?

1825
01:54:52,468 --> 01:54:54,926
That’s children’s psychology.

1826
01:54:55,052 --> 01:54:57,342
Who knows what they thought up?

1827
01:54:57,510 --> 01:55:01,342
Yeah, but it doesn’t make sense.
That’s what bothers me.

1828
01:55:01,468 --> 01:55:04,176
Fuck it. Don’t let it bother you.

1829
01:55:05,552 --> 01:55:08,467
Fuck you, Tolga, always so relaxed.

1830
01:55:08,593 --> 01:55:11,634
You’re wrong. I’m in shock too.

1831
01:55:12,490 --> 01:55:16,788
I even said, “Look, girls.
These are very serious accusations.”

1832
01:55:16,920 --> 01:55:19,259
They said,
“Yes, but it upsets us, etc.”

1833
01:55:19,427 --> 01:55:22,591
I asked, “Why did you hang around
our teacher, then?”

1834
01:55:22,677 --> 01:55:23,884
What did they say?

1835
01:55:24,010 --> 01:55:26,176
Nothing clear, of course.

1836
01:55:26,385 --> 01:55:28,426
“But sir, blah blah blah.”

1837
01:55:28,552 --> 01:55:31,717
- “Look,” I said...
- Alright, but what did they say?

1838
01:55:31,885 --> 01:55:34,092
What did Sevim say, for instance?

1839
01:55:34,385 --> 01:55:37,717
I don’t remember exactly.

1840
01:55:38,052 --> 01:55:41,801
Just stuff like, she’s upset.

1841
01:55:43,177 --> 01:55:44,926
Also said she’s scared.

1842
01:55:45,052 --> 01:55:46,009
Scared?

1843
01:55:46,135 --> 01:55:48,426
- Something like that.
- Scared of what?

1844
01:55:48,677 --> 01:55:50,342
I don’t know.

1845
01:55:51,468 --> 01:55:54,467
But it seems they went after Kenan more.

1846
01:55:54,760 --> 01:55:56,509
How’s that?

1847
01:55:56,718 --> 01:55:58,759
As if they were mad at Kenan,

1848
01:55:58,885 --> 01:56:01,426
and you got caught up in it.

1849
01:56:01,718 --> 01:56:04,301
What do you mean?

1850
01:56:05,260 --> 01:56:08,551
I’m saying, maybe Kenan was their mark.

1851
01:56:08,677 --> 01:56:10,426
Why?

1852
01:56:11,302 --> 01:56:16,092
Maybe Kenan’s jealous that
the girls like you, and not him,

1853
01:56:16,593 --> 01:56:19,551
so he’s acting overly friendly with them.

1854
01:56:23,843 --> 01:56:25,759
Is that possible?

1855
01:56:25,968 --> 01:56:27,592
I don’t know.

1856
01:56:28,010 --> 01:56:30,259
Might be something like that.

1857
01:56:31,135 --> 01:56:33,759
You mean Kenan was their real target

1858
01:56:33,885 --> 01:56:36,509
and I just got caught in the middle?

1859
01:56:37,135 --> 01:56:38,676
Yes.

1860
01:56:39,260 --> 01:56:42,009
Aylin actually complained more about Kenan.

1861
01:56:42,135 --> 01:56:44,342
But Sevim said some stuff too.

1862
01:56:45,302 --> 01:56:47,133
Like, he pinches girls’ cheeks.

1863
01:56:47,218 --> 01:56:48,426
You serious?

1864
01:56:48,552 --> 01:56:51,176
Stares at them during lessons.

1865
01:56:54,885 --> 01:56:56,842
How about that?

1866
01:56:57,552 --> 01:57:01,134
He doesn’t look brave enough
for stuff like that.

1867
01:57:03,010 --> 01:57:04,134
Though he might be.

1868
01:57:04,260 --> 01:57:05,926
I don’t know.

1869
01:57:06,843 --> 01:57:11,301
Sevim might’ve encouraged Aylin
to avoid being alone.

1870
01:57:11,427 --> 01:57:12,676
You know Sevim.

1871
01:57:12,802 --> 01:57:14,301
Not that well.

1872
01:57:14,427 --> 01:57:16,634
That’s what I think.

1873
01:57:19,177 --> 01:57:20,551
What am I doing here?

1874
01:57:20,677 --> 01:57:24,092
What kind of people are we involved with?

1875
01:57:24,218 --> 01:57:27,884
Why did we get into this fucking profession?

1876
01:57:28,677 --> 01:57:31,509
All those years spent studying.

1877
01:57:32,927 --> 01:57:35,926
Don’t mention this to anyone.

1878
01:57:36,385 --> 01:57:37,925
Sure. Who would I tell?

1879
01:57:38,010 --> 01:57:40,842
It’s just what I think.

1880
01:57:41,510 --> 01:57:43,383
It might not be true.

1881
01:57:43,468 --> 01:57:46,009
No, it’s probably true.

1882
01:57:47,843 --> 01:57:49,676
Look at him.

1883
01:57:50,177 --> 01:57:52,551
Talk about a dark horse!

1884
01:57:56,218 --> 01:57:58,176
Lecturing me about ethics.

1885
01:57:58,302 --> 01:58:02,384
Saying I shouldn’t give gifts
and to respect sensibilities.

1886
01:58:02,510 --> 01:58:04,176
Well, well, well.

1887
01:58:04,510 --> 01:58:07,509
He thinks he can dump it in my lap.

1888
01:58:12,427 --> 01:58:14,259
What a rat.

1889
01:59:24,677 --> 01:59:26,592
- Hi.
- Hi.

1890
01:59:39,468 --> 01:59:40,509
Did you eat?

1891
01:59:40,635 --> 01:59:43,592
Yeah, I got some pastries in town. Have some.

1892
01:59:43,718 --> 01:59:45,259
Wonderful.

1893
01:59:54,635 --> 01:59:56,884
I couldn’t eat all day.

1894
01:59:57,093 --> 01:59:58,717
This is great.

1895
02:00:01,635 --> 02:00:02,800
Heat them up.

1896
02:00:02,885 --> 02:00:05,926
No need. Fine like this.

1897
02:00:06,885 --> 02:00:08,259
Tea?

1898
02:00:08,927 --> 02:00:10,301
No, thanks.

1899
02:00:11,593 --> 02:00:13,176
Enjoy.

1900
02:00:13,635 --> 02:00:15,051
What’s up?

1901
02:00:15,385 --> 02:00:16,508
What do you mean?

1902
02:00:16,593 --> 02:00:18,634
Why didn’t you eat?

1903
02:00:20,343 --> 02:00:22,634
My parents’ medication ran out.

1904
02:00:22,843 --> 02:00:24,967
They needed a new prescription.

1905
02:00:25,177 --> 02:00:28,551
The druggist refused.
Said they had to come in person.

1906
02:00:28,718 --> 02:00:31,426
How can old people come all that way?

1907
02:00:31,760 --> 02:00:33,676
You were in town too?

1908
02:00:33,802 --> 02:00:37,259
Well, mostly at the hospital.

1909
02:00:37,677 --> 02:00:41,301
Really? If I’d known,
we could’ve come back together.

1910
02:00:41,968 --> 02:00:46,467
We could’ve,
but my timing was kinda mixed up.

1911
02:00:46,968 --> 02:00:48,551
Mixed up?

1912
02:00:48,802 --> 02:00:50,259
Went to a mechanic, too.

1913
02:00:50,385 --> 02:00:53,759
Couldn’t eat with all that hassle.
What did you do?

1914
02:00:54,052 --> 02:00:55,634
Remember,

1915
02:00:56,008 --> 02:00:57,925
they messed up my
teacher score?

1916
02:00:58,010 --> 02:01:00,467
- I went to get it fixed.
- They do it?

1917
02:01:00,593 --> 02:01:02,300
They whined, but it got done.

1918
02:01:02,385 --> 02:01:05,383
Nowhere else has such an awful
education office.

1919
02:01:05,468 --> 02:01:08,009
How can they forget the service score?

1920
02:01:08,385 --> 02:01:09,759
Yeah, well.

1921
02:01:10,343 --> 02:01:12,550
Civil servants are people, after all.

1922
02:01:12,635 --> 02:01:13,926
True,

1923
02:01:14,260 --> 02:01:17,384
but this has a huge effect
on a teacher’s fate.

1924
02:01:17,510 --> 02:01:21,592
A few points can change
where you spend your whole youth.

1925
02:01:21,718 --> 02:01:24,884
If you hadn’t noticed, lots of people

1926
02:01:25,052 --> 02:01:26,967
would be ahead of you unfairly.

1927
02:01:27,135 --> 02:01:28,426
Exactly.

1928
02:01:28,552 --> 02:01:30,634
It’s good you sorted it out.

1929
02:01:32,677 --> 02:01:36,009
I thought I saw your car there.

1930
02:01:36,218 --> 02:01:38,759
I almost ran after you, but I wasn’t sure.

1931
02:01:38,927 --> 02:01:40,634
Why didn’t you call?

1932
02:01:42,427 --> 02:01:44,884
I didn’t want to disturb you.

1933
02:01:45,260 --> 02:01:47,759
Why would you have disturbed me?

1934
02:01:48,468 --> 02:01:50,509
Don’t know. Would I have?

1935
02:01:51,093 --> 02:01:52,258
Would you what?

1936
02:01:52,343 --> 02:01:53,926
Have disturbed you.

1937
02:01:54,093 --> 02:01:55,842
No, why?

1938
02:03:02,802 --> 02:03:05,676
I see you take bread home, Comrade Nuray.

1939
02:03:08,010 --> 02:03:11,551
Yet you leave poor dogs to die of hunger.

1940
02:03:14,385 --> 02:03:16,134
They have their fates too.

1941
02:03:16,260 --> 02:03:17,592
Wow.

1942
02:03:17,885 --> 02:03:20,342
I didn’t think you believed in fate.

1943
02:03:20,760 --> 02:03:23,009
I’m full of surprises.

1944
02:03:23,635 --> 02:03:25,551
What are you doing here?

1945
02:03:26,677 --> 02:03:30,133
I left school early
to go to the education office.

1946
02:03:30,218 --> 02:03:31,842
I needed some cash too.

1947
02:03:31,968 --> 02:03:33,426
You just get out?

1948
02:03:33,552 --> 02:03:36,801
Yes. We had a charity sale at school today.

1949
02:03:36,968 --> 02:03:38,842
Waste of time as usual.

1950
02:03:38,968 --> 02:03:42,592
Expected a festival? Just be grateful
for the charity.

1951
02:03:43,885 --> 02:03:45,217
What are you up to?

1952
02:03:45,343 --> 02:03:47,342
You have time for coffee?

1953
02:03:47,468 --> 02:03:49,092
I can’t now.

1954
02:03:49,218 --> 02:03:50,926
Okay.

1955
02:03:51,177 --> 02:03:54,008
Actually, I don’t have much time either.

1956
02:03:54,093 --> 02:03:55,426
I need to get back.

1957
02:03:55,552 --> 02:03:57,300
Okay. Some other time, then.

1958
02:03:57,385 --> 02:03:58,425
Sorry.

1959
02:03:58,510 --> 02:04:00,967
No, it’s alright.

1960
02:04:01,218 --> 02:04:02,759
- Some other time.
- Okay.

1961
02:04:02,885 --> 02:04:05,717
What’s Kenan up to? He’s at home?

1962
02:04:06,135 --> 02:04:09,009
Kenan? No idea. He said his father was sick.

1963
02:04:09,135 --> 02:04:10,758
I didn’t talk to him again.

1964
02:04:10,843 --> 02:04:13,009
Like I said, I left early.

1965
02:04:13,468 --> 02:04:15,092
Haven’t you seen him?

1966
02:04:15,218 --> 02:04:17,592
No, how would I have?

1967
02:04:17,927 --> 02:04:19,801
Don’t know, just asked.

1968
02:04:19,927 --> 02:04:22,967
Anyway. Talk to you later.

1969
02:04:23,135 --> 02:04:25,865
Okay. What are you two doing this weekend?

1970
02:04:25,996 --> 02:04:28,362
- You could come over.
- What?

1971
02:04:28,448 --> 02:04:31,884
I told you, my family’s going away.
Come for dinner.

1972
02:04:32,010 --> 02:04:33,384
Oh, yeah.

1973
02:04:33,593 --> 02:04:36,217
- Maybe Saturday?
- Okay.

1974
02:04:36,427 --> 02:04:38,426
Fine for us. Have they left?

1975
02:04:38,552 --> 02:04:40,301
No, tomorrow.

1976
02:04:40,427 --> 02:04:42,926
Alright. Tell Kenan, then.

1977
02:04:43,135 --> 02:04:44,175
Seven okay?

1978
02:04:44,260 --> 02:04:46,717
Yeah, seven is great.

1979
02:04:47,427 --> 02:04:49,884
Okay. Send you my address later.

1980
02:04:50,010 --> 02:04:51,301
Alright.

1981
02:04:51,427 --> 02:04:55,051
Won’t be any problem with the neighbors?

1982
02:04:55,177 --> 02:04:56,633
- Neighbors?
- Yeah.

1983
02:04:56,718 --> 02:04:59,716
We fought and won some rights, you know.

1984
02:04:59,802 --> 02:05:01,883
- Don’t be silly.
- Just asking.

1985
02:05:01,968 --> 02:05:04,592
- We fought for decades.
- For sure.

1986
02:05:04,760 --> 02:05:06,509
Better believe it.

1987
02:05:06,802 --> 02:05:09,842
Just as I’d expect from you, Comrade Nuray.

1988
02:05:10,010 --> 02:05:11,426
See you later.

1989
02:05:11,552 --> 02:05:14,217
- Bye.
- Take care.

1990
02:06:45,760 --> 02:06:47,176
- Hi.
- Hi.

1991
02:06:47,302 --> 02:06:48,634
Come on in.

1992
02:06:50,177 --> 02:06:53,759
- You okay?
- Damn it, I tripped.

1993
02:06:55,760 --> 02:06:57,134
Where’s Kenan?

1994
02:06:57,302 --> 02:06:59,022
If I say it’s just me?

1995
02:06:59,155 --> 02:07:00,017
Why?

1996
02:07:00,139 --> 02:07:03,472
Kenan’s got a lot on his plate.

1997
02:07:04,093 --> 02:07:06,509
His father’s sick and old, you know.

1998
02:07:06,677 --> 02:07:08,967
You should’ve told me.

1999
02:07:09,843 --> 02:07:13,801
We could have postponed or something.

2000
02:07:14,135 --> 02:07:18,426
You think so? I did think about it, but...

2001
02:07:18,843 --> 02:07:21,363
Have I been an asshole?

2002
02:07:21,490 --> 02:07:22,300
No.

2003
02:07:22,385 --> 02:07:24,210
- I’ll go if you like.
- No.

2004
02:07:24,337 --> 02:07:27,592
- Really.
- It’s not that big a deal.

2005
02:07:27,760 --> 02:07:31,384
It’s just too bad that he’s
missing out on the feast.

2006
02:07:31,718 --> 02:07:34,301
- Come in.
- It’s his loss, anyhow.

2007
02:07:34,635 --> 02:07:35,925
No, no need.

2008
02:07:36,010 --> 02:07:38,217
Did anyone see you come in?

2009
02:07:38,385 --> 02:07:40,300
- Did anybody see you?
- No.

2010
02:07:40,385 --> 02:07:42,091
I snuck in like a thief.

2011
02:07:42,177 --> 02:07:44,341
But what about those rights you won?

2012
02:07:44,427 --> 02:07:47,884
Okay, but there’s no need to push it.

2013
02:07:51,593 --> 02:07:53,259
By the way...

2014
02:07:54,510 --> 02:07:56,342
Thanks, there was no need.

2015
02:07:56,510 --> 02:07:58,176
It’s nothing.

2016
02:08:11,260 --> 02:08:12,926
Nice.

2017
02:08:15,010 --> 02:08:16,801
No one’s home, right?

2018
02:08:17,343 --> 02:08:21,676
Locked the folks in the closet.
They won’t cause trouble.

2019
02:08:24,649 --> 02:08:26,544
You look very nice, by the way.

2020
02:08:26,677 --> 02:08:28,426
The skirt suits you.

2021
02:08:29,052 --> 02:08:30,551
Thanks.

2022
02:08:33,302 --> 02:08:35,301
You get these at the grocer’s?

2023
02:08:35,927 --> 02:08:37,717
They’re wrapped like parsley.

2024
02:08:37,843 --> 02:08:41,176
Just in case. You know how things are here.

2025
02:08:41,802 --> 02:08:44,716
- I’ll put them in water.
- Okay.

2026
02:08:44,802 --> 02:08:47,342
Have a seat. Are you hungry?

2027
02:08:47,468 --> 02:08:48,966
We can eat straight away.

2028
02:08:49,052 --> 02:08:50,967
Yeah, maybe.

2029
02:08:52,968 --> 02:08:54,717
I’ll sit down, then.

2030
02:08:54,843 --> 02:08:56,801
Fine. Be back in a minute.

2031
02:09:53,843 --> 02:09:57,259
If you say you painted these,
I won’t believe you.

2032
02:09:58,093 --> 02:09:59,716
I did. Why?

2033
02:09:59,802 --> 02:10:01,134
They’re really good.

2034
02:10:01,260 --> 02:10:03,800
You call that
“community education level”?

2035
02:10:03,885 --> 02:10:05,092
Oh, come on.

2036
02:10:05,218 --> 02:10:07,759
No, I’m serious.

2037
02:10:08,385 --> 02:10:10,676
You’re much better than me.

2038
02:10:11,010 --> 02:10:14,801
I just don’t get how you could find meaning

2039
02:10:14,968 --> 02:10:16,842
in Kenan’s face.

2040
02:10:20,510 --> 02:10:23,842
You never know where you’ll find meaning.

2041
02:10:26,302 --> 02:10:29,467
The time for transfers is coming.
What will you do?

2042
02:10:30,593 --> 02:10:34,759
I’ll try every trick to get out of here.

2043
02:10:35,218 --> 02:10:38,176
We’ll see if there’s an opportunity.

2044
02:10:39,052 --> 02:10:41,801
And you, still not considering it?

2045
02:10:42,385 --> 02:10:45,092
You can go anywhere. If I were you...

2046
02:10:45,218 --> 02:10:47,550
- It’s hard for me to go.
- Why?

2047
02:10:47,635 --> 02:10:50,426
First, the family isn’t ready for that idea.

2048
02:10:50,802 --> 02:10:52,342
I know people in Istanbul.

2049
02:10:52,468 --> 02:10:54,426
Friends from the organization.

2050
02:10:54,593 --> 02:10:57,551
If I go there, I won’t have any
problems socializing.

2051
02:10:57,677 --> 02:11:01,551
Sure. Impossible not to socialize there.

2052
02:11:01,677 --> 02:11:04,341
If you can’t there, you can’t anywhere.

2053
02:11:04,427 --> 02:11:06,676
Someone needs to stay here.

2054
02:11:06,802 --> 02:11:09,633
What’ll happen if we all leave?

2055
02:11:09,718 --> 02:11:12,092
Yeah, there’s that too.

2056
02:11:12,718 --> 02:11:15,758
But you have to think about your own life.

2057
02:11:15,843 --> 02:11:19,384
Life will take care of itself.

2058
02:11:19,552 --> 02:11:23,216
I’ve done my share. Others can do theirs.

2059
02:11:23,302 --> 02:11:25,050
Four years! Isn’t that enough?

2060
02:11:25,135 --> 02:11:27,551
If you say so.

2061
02:11:27,968 --> 02:11:31,051
But I think you’re exaggerating a bit.

2062
02:11:31,427 --> 02:11:32,550
Exaggerating what?

2063
02:11:32,635 --> 02:11:36,467
You blame this place for all your problems.
It’s false.

2064
02:11:36,760 --> 02:11:38,844
What do you expect in Istanbul?

2065
02:11:38,949 --> 02:11:39,817
No idea.

2066
02:11:39,944 --> 02:11:42,190
Wherever you go,
your problems go with you.

2067
02:11:42,317 --> 02:11:45,176
I can’t think about that right now.

2068
02:11:45,468 --> 02:11:48,467
All I know is that
this place is dragging me down.

2069
02:11:48,635 --> 02:11:50,133
All I see is emptiness.

2070
02:11:50,218 --> 02:11:52,634
Things shriveled and bent by the cold.

2071
02:11:52,760 --> 02:11:54,466
Hungry, sick, helpless dogs.

2072
02:11:54,552 --> 02:11:58,508
You’d manage to see the same things,
even in Switzerland.

2073
02:11:58,593 --> 02:11:59,926
Don’t worry.

2074
02:12:00,260 --> 02:12:01,259
Doesn’t matter.

2075
02:12:01,427 --> 02:12:04,591
I’ll face my destiny. Good or bad.

2076
02:12:04,677 --> 02:12:07,467
I say go big or go home!

2077
02:12:07,677 --> 02:12:09,051
Right.

2078
02:12:09,427 --> 02:12:11,717
I was like you before the explosion.

2079
02:12:11,885 --> 02:12:16,217
Rushing around like I was missing out
with no foresight.

2080
02:12:16,385 --> 02:12:19,009
So I should be sensible,
satisfied and grateful?

2081
02:12:19,177 --> 02:12:21,051
- Not at all.
- What, then?

2082
02:12:21,218 --> 02:12:25,675
If you’re complaining, it means
something could or should be done.

2083
02:12:25,760 --> 02:12:28,384
You realize, get annoyed and complain.

2084
02:12:28,552 --> 02:12:31,134
You should react, but you don’t.

2085
02:12:31,260 --> 02:12:33,259
- You run.
- What else should I do?

2086
02:12:33,593 --> 02:12:35,895
Devote my life to this place?

2087
02:12:35,979 --> 02:12:36,873
No.

2088
02:12:36,955 --> 02:12:40,801
I’ve done my duty and now I’m off.

2089
02:12:41,177 --> 02:12:45,629
I’ve given four years to this hell-hole.
Isn’t that enough?

2090
02:12:45,761 --> 02:12:49,217
It is,
but someone needs to do something.

2091
02:12:49,510 --> 02:12:53,342
I’m always for action.
People need to get involved.

2092
02:12:53,510 --> 02:12:55,342
That’s what the world needs.

2093
02:12:55,468 --> 02:12:56,509
Some more?

2094
02:12:56,677 --> 02:12:57,884
Sure.

2095
02:13:05,135 --> 02:13:10,009
For example, you follow politics
and get mad at everything.

2096
02:13:10,677 --> 02:13:12,051
Do I?

2097
02:13:12,260 --> 02:13:13,551
You do.

2098
02:13:13,843 --> 02:13:18,051
I read the news,
but I don’t follow anything closely.

2099
02:13:18,302 --> 02:13:20,800
You think that, because I complain a lot?

2100
02:13:20,885 --> 02:13:23,842
You complain, but what changes?

2101
02:13:25,593 --> 02:13:27,592
My father is like you, as well.

2102
02:13:27,718 --> 02:13:30,676
He’s retired and has nothing to do.
He just gets mad.

2103
02:13:31,052 --> 02:13:33,432
Should he set himself on fire
outside Parliament?

2104
02:13:33,558 --> 02:13:36,383
No, but complaining
changes nothing.

2105
02:13:36,468 --> 02:13:38,842
- So?
- Got to focus on action.

2106
02:13:38,968 --> 02:13:41,134
How do you view the world?

2107
02:13:41,260 --> 02:13:44,079
- How do you place yourself?
- Place myself?

2108
02:13:44,169 --> 02:13:46,509
I mean, what “ism” are you?

2109
02:13:46,760 --> 02:13:49,592
“Ism”? What the hell is that?

2110
02:13:49,760 --> 02:13:53,259
You must belong to some faction.

2111
02:13:54,010 --> 02:13:57,176
I don’t feel a need
to define myself as anything.

2112
02:13:57,468 --> 02:14:01,550
Maybe I used to,
but that phase is in the past.

2113
02:14:01,635 --> 02:14:03,341
It’s not about phases.

2114
02:14:03,427 --> 02:14:06,550
How do you contribute to the world?

2115
02:14:06,635 --> 02:14:07,716
What do you do?

2116
02:14:07,802 --> 02:14:10,800
- Is it his a goodness contest?
- No.

2117
02:14:10,885 --> 02:14:14,592
I’m asking where you stand,
where you feel you belong.

2118
02:14:14,968 --> 02:14:17,134
If you want to answer.

2119
02:14:18,843 --> 02:14:23,842
A sheltered life within a group
with the same ideologies

2120
02:14:23,968 --> 02:14:26,508
isn’t really for me.

2121
02:14:26,593 --> 02:14:27,425
Why not?

2122
02:14:27,510 --> 02:14:30,466
- Don’t believe in solidarity?
- It’s not that.

2123
02:14:30,552 --> 02:14:33,716
Maybe I find it incompatible with freedom.

2124
02:14:33,802 --> 02:14:35,801
- Why?
- I don’t know.

2125
02:14:35,968 --> 02:14:40,384
All I know is, something in me firmly rejects

2126
02:14:40,510 --> 02:14:42,551
that kind of existence.

2127
02:14:42,677 --> 02:14:45,301
It’s not just about you, though.

2128
02:14:45,510 --> 02:14:48,426
What are you doing for the world, I’m asking?

2129
02:14:48,552 --> 02:14:52,467
Everyone contributes somehow.
It’s no big deal.

2130
02:14:52,635 --> 02:14:56,176
Those who’re able, do things.
And others don’t.

2131
02:14:56,302 --> 02:15:00,051
- In society, everyone can do something.
- Yes.

2132
02:15:00,177 --> 02:15:02,259
How do you feel when you see

2133
02:15:02,385 --> 02:15:05,551
rapes, corruption and refugees
in the news?

2134
02:15:05,677 --> 02:15:08,384
Upset, but the world’s troubles are endless.

2135
02:15:08,510 --> 02:15:10,258
- You shut your eyes.
- No.

2136
02:15:10,343 --> 02:15:12,801
You keep problems at a distance.

2137
02:15:12,927 --> 02:15:16,009
What if I do?
Does everyone have to be a hero?

2138
02:15:16,135 --> 02:15:19,550
No, but you seem to embrace selfishness.

2139
02:15:19,635 --> 02:15:24,217
Isn’t that why the world lacks
reason, equality and conscience?

2140
02:15:24,343 --> 02:15:26,092
You think the same rules

2141
02:15:26,218 --> 02:15:28,509
can be applied everywhere?

2142
02:15:28,677 --> 02:15:32,759
Is an idea that’s logical to us
also logical in Mongolia?

2143
02:15:32,927 --> 02:15:34,258
Cultures differ,

2144
02:15:34,343 --> 02:15:37,634
but aren’t people’s basic needs
the same everywhere?

2145
02:15:37,802 --> 02:15:41,509
Don’t ask me.
I can’t even get my own thoughts together.

2146
02:15:41,760 --> 02:15:43,051
Like what?

2147
02:15:43,343 --> 02:15:44,801
I don’t know.

2148
02:15:44,927 --> 02:15:48,009
I think justice is a utopian idea.
Equality too.

2149
02:15:48,135 --> 02:15:51,800
For that, everyone has to be the same,
which is nonsense.

2150
02:15:51,885 --> 02:15:53,384
Everything’s different.

2151
02:15:53,510 --> 02:15:58,092
The world is a struggle between
different, ever-moving forces.

2152
02:15:58,260 --> 02:16:01,592
History is the sum of that,
but we don’t accept it.

2153
02:16:01,718 --> 02:16:05,759
I don’t even like thinking about it,
because it leads to chaos.

2154
02:16:05,968 --> 02:16:08,633
Whereas order is needed
for life to continue.

2155
02:16:08,718 --> 02:16:12,259
So we prefer to believe your charming tales.

2156
02:16:12,468 --> 02:16:15,009
They’re facts, not tales.

2157
02:16:15,135 --> 02:16:18,883
That’s what the structure of history is.

2158
02:16:18,968 --> 02:16:22,676
You see chaos as a negative
and destructive force.

2159
02:16:22,802 --> 02:16:25,842
“If only humanity had a nicer history!”

2160
02:16:25,968 --> 02:16:27,634
Unfortunately, it doesn’t.

2161
02:16:27,760 --> 02:16:30,466
You keep proposing bowing down.

2162
02:16:30,552 --> 02:16:32,967
Isn’t that contrary to your principles?

2163
02:16:33,093 --> 02:16:34,801
Not at all.

2164
02:16:34,927 --> 02:16:39,591
Fancy words will never replace
bringing a bucket of water

2165
02:16:39,677 --> 02:16:42,009
to a place suffering from drought.

2166
02:16:42,302 --> 02:16:44,592
Can this wretched world be helped?

2167
02:16:44,718 --> 02:16:47,133
That’s the only question.

2168
02:16:47,218 --> 02:16:49,592
I’m not opposing that.

2169
02:16:49,718 --> 02:16:52,704
- But why are you attacking me?
- Because you’re here.

2170
02:16:52,831 --> 02:16:55,884
I’m tired of asking myself those questions.

2171
02:16:56,010 --> 02:16:58,176
Don’t you think change is needed?

2172
02:16:58,343 --> 02:17:02,633
There’re things that need to change
and things that don’t.

2173
02:17:02,718 --> 02:17:06,966
Am I happy with the state of the world? No.

2174
02:17:07,052 --> 02:17:11,091
But that doesn’t mean
I gotta belong to a clique.

2175
02:17:11,177 --> 02:17:14,091
- That’s the real problem.
- What?

2176
02:17:14,177 --> 02:17:19,509
Educated people like you
getting lost in uncertainties.

2177
02:17:19,635 --> 02:17:22,176
They leave the public arena
to the ignorant.

2178
02:17:22,343 --> 02:17:26,009
Maybe the public arena was designed for them.

2179
02:17:26,135 --> 02:17:29,716
Isn’t it obvious that division is human?

2180
02:17:29,802 --> 02:17:34,092
Ideologies and even goals
can easily be misused

2181
02:17:34,218 --> 02:17:37,801
to satisfy objectives.

2182
02:17:38,010 --> 02:17:41,051
I don’t think much about these things.

2183
02:17:41,177 --> 02:17:44,884
Man dreams, tries, builds,
and then destroys.

2184
02:17:45,010 --> 02:17:46,842
That’s how history unfolds.

2185
02:17:46,968 --> 02:17:49,967
For me, history recalls
the weariness of hope.

2186
02:17:50,093 --> 02:17:52,967
Aren’t you a product of this history too?

2187
02:17:53,093 --> 02:17:58,841
If we viewed history as a system,
wouldn’t that save us from confusion?

2188
02:17:58,927 --> 02:18:03,175
You believe people would really be happy
if their needs were met?

2189
02:18:03,260 --> 02:18:06,384
Why not? That hope is all we’ve got.

2190
02:18:06,510 --> 02:18:10,216
Hasn’t hope always been the key
driving force for humanity?

2191
02:18:10,302 --> 02:18:14,383
- Like waiting for a messiah?
- That’s nonsense.

2192
02:18:14,468 --> 02:18:17,842
Doing something can never be equated
with weakness.

2193
02:18:17,968 --> 02:18:20,259
Free society, but not individuals?

2194
02:18:20,385 --> 02:18:23,592
Social struggle involves
social responsibility.

2195
02:18:23,760 --> 02:18:26,134
Where do you see yourself in this?

2196
02:18:26,260 --> 02:18:28,467
I’m in favor of freedom.

2197
02:18:28,593 --> 02:18:31,426
What freedom? What do you mean by freedom?

2198
02:18:31,552 --> 02:18:33,133
Human freedom.

2199
02:18:33,218 --> 02:18:36,051
History has a course, the planet too,

2200
02:18:36,177 --> 02:18:38,341
and the course of humanity
is freedom.

2201
02:18:38,427 --> 02:18:42,800
You think socialists live in a cage
with limited freedom?

2202
02:18:42,885 --> 02:18:45,509
It’s freedom for people
we’re fighting for.

2203
02:18:45,677 --> 02:18:49,259
Well, I happen to be a member
of some charitable foundations.

2204
02:18:49,385 --> 02:18:51,551
I’m not the one
you should be grilling.

2205
02:18:51,677 --> 02:18:54,259
Your approach is weird, though.

2206
02:18:54,385 --> 02:18:58,175
You act a bit lumpen.
You don’t want to get involved,

2207
02:18:58,260 --> 02:19:00,926
but if the work’s done, you’ll support it.

2208
02:19:01,052 --> 02:19:02,926
Should I get beaten by the cops?

2209
02:19:03,052 --> 02:19:04,466
You talk like a liberal.

2210
02:19:04,552 --> 02:19:08,426
Isn’t that kind of support
the same as siding with the strong?

2211
02:19:08,593 --> 02:19:11,842
So why not do it now?
Go side with the government.

2212
02:19:11,968 --> 02:19:15,384
Bravo for making me pro-government.

2213
02:19:15,510 --> 02:19:17,551
You measure sensitivity.

2214
02:19:17,677 --> 02:19:20,384
That’s as futile as judging a suicide.

2215
02:19:20,510 --> 02:19:22,842
I’m not measuring anything.

2216
02:19:22,968 --> 02:19:27,244
I’m annoyed that you stigmatize those
who do something when you don’t.

2217
02:19:27,376 --> 02:19:28,633
Isn’t that the topic?

2218
02:19:28,718 --> 02:19:32,384
Would you be happier
if I said I trusted people?

2219
02:19:32,552 --> 02:19:34,758
Say what you think. You do anyway.

2220
02:19:34,843 --> 02:19:36,467
But you generalize.

2221
02:19:36,593 --> 02:19:39,176
There are exceptions, and reasons for them.

2222
02:19:39,302 --> 02:19:41,676
I think, even self-sacrifice

2223
02:19:41,802 --> 02:19:44,467
often means indebting the other.

2224
02:19:44,635 --> 02:19:47,341
Even the suicide bomber does it to exist,

2225
02:19:47,427 --> 02:19:49,884
not to cease to exist.

2226
02:19:50,135 --> 02:19:53,009
I can’t help but get mad
at the undeserved trust

2227
02:19:53,135 --> 02:19:56,134
of ideologically motivated crowds.

2228
02:19:56,510 --> 02:19:59,675
Their sticky blind morality

2229
02:19:59,760 --> 02:20:04,051
and their happiness because they’re
like-minded.

2230
02:20:04,177 --> 02:20:05,551
Sorry.

2231
02:20:05,677 --> 02:20:09,676
Why is it so important for everyone
to think the same?

2232
02:20:10,302 --> 02:20:14,676
And I’m all alone
in the middle of all this noise.

2233
02:20:15,093 --> 02:20:16,383
But despite all,

2234
02:20:16,468 --> 02:20:21,551
the whisper of that unique source inside me

2235
02:20:21,718 --> 02:20:26,967
reminds me how human it is to oppose
and to feel bored.

2236
02:20:28,343 --> 02:20:33,121
Seeing the connection between obsessions
and ideas

2237
02:20:33,253 --> 02:20:34,948
doesn’t make me
a degenerate.

2238
02:20:35,080 --> 02:20:40,551
Doesn’t it matter that a person has
the courage to sacrifice himself,

2239
02:20:40,677 --> 02:20:46,259
whether for an ideal, or a lofty cause,
even if brainwashed?

2240
02:20:46,677 --> 02:20:49,426
- Especially today.
- Of course it does.

2241
02:20:49,635 --> 02:20:52,509
Then that means
you should somehow understand

2242
02:20:52,635 --> 02:20:56,134
and forgive the suicide bomber
that cost you your leg.

2243
02:20:56,260 --> 02:20:59,801
Can you do that?
Whatever his thoughts or beliefs.

2244
02:21:00,593 --> 02:21:02,801
I can, if needed.
That’s not the issue.

2245
02:21:02,927 --> 02:21:05,509
And I didn’t imply
you were a degenerate.

2246
02:21:05,635 --> 02:21:10,884
What if those people you scorn
came together over shared ideals?

2247
02:21:11,010 --> 02:21:16,967
Aren’t there evils that are only overcome
with the solidarity you hate?

2248
02:21:17,093 --> 02:21:19,176
- Of course.
- “Of course.”

2249
02:21:19,302 --> 02:21:23,175
Of course there are.
I’m not saying the contrary.

2250
02:21:23,260 --> 02:21:25,384
What I’m saying is this.

2251
02:21:25,510 --> 02:21:28,800
You know very well, the actions of a society

2252
02:21:28,885 --> 02:21:33,550
are not equal to the sum of
its individual parts.

2253
02:21:33,635 --> 02:21:36,967
Isn’t that reason enough
to stay away from the herd?

2254
02:21:37,093 --> 02:21:41,467
Whatever their reasons or motivations?

2255
02:21:41,592 --> 02:21:45,089
The well-off may have that luxury.

2256
02:21:45,221 --> 02:21:50,801
A proverb says, “If you travel in a herd,
all you’ll see are asses.”

2257
02:21:50,927 --> 02:21:54,801
Well, for some, those asses might mean
a blessing,

2258
02:21:54,927 --> 02:21:57,383
security and warmth.

2259
02:21:57,468 --> 02:21:59,551
- Right?
- I guess.

2260
02:22:05,802 --> 02:22:07,426
What about you?

2261
02:22:08,218 --> 02:22:10,301
How do you contribute?

2262
02:22:10,836 --> 02:22:12,336
- Me?
- Yeah.

2263
02:22:12,510 --> 02:22:14,134
- Me?
- Yeah.

2264
02:22:20,677 --> 02:22:22,300
I can’t, anymore.

2265
02:22:22,510 --> 02:22:25,217
As you see, I’m retired due to disability.

2266
02:22:27,927 --> 02:22:29,384
Don’t say that.

2267
02:22:29,552 --> 02:22:32,759
I mean, that’s not what I see.

2268
02:22:33,177 --> 02:22:35,384
That’s not where I’m looking.

2269
02:22:35,759 --> 02:22:38,008
I’m looking somewhere else.

2270
02:23:48,010 --> 02:23:50,134
- A fill up?
- Alright.

2271
02:24:19,885 --> 02:24:21,676
You need time

2272
02:24:21,927 --> 02:24:25,051
to get to know someone.

2273
02:24:26,468 --> 02:24:29,926
On the other hand, certain things,
if left to time,

2274
02:24:30,509 --> 02:24:33,301
would just be a waste of time.

2275
02:24:33,427 --> 02:24:34,884
Right?

2276
02:24:35,427 --> 02:24:36,926
Yes.

2277
02:24:38,593 --> 02:24:43,176
This process can be quickly handled
with a few questions.

2278
02:24:44,510 --> 02:24:46,467
I’m sure it can.

2279
02:24:48,343 --> 02:24:50,884
No need to waste time.

2280
02:24:52,052 --> 02:24:53,967
It’s not necessary.

2281
02:24:55,592 --> 02:24:57,092
Okay?

2282
02:25:00,717 --> 02:25:02,592
Now, for instance.

2283
02:25:03,842 --> 02:25:05,717
What are you like?

2284
02:25:07,885 --> 02:25:09,426
How do you mean?

2285
02:25:09,635 --> 02:25:12,134
What kind of person are you?

2286
02:25:14,677 --> 02:25:16,467
In what sense?

2287
02:25:18,342 --> 02:25:21,009
Answer the question
however you understand it.

2288
02:25:21,218 --> 02:25:24,009
How you understand it
is an answer in itself.

2289
02:25:26,968 --> 02:25:30,092
Shall I tell the truth
or try to make you happy?

2290
02:25:30,260 --> 02:25:32,176
The truth, of course.

2291
02:25:33,302 --> 02:25:34,759
Alright.

2292
02:25:36,468 --> 02:25:39,592
Very romantic, fond of his family,

2293
02:25:40,718 --> 02:25:42,842
charitable...

2294
02:25:45,468 --> 02:25:48,051
What? Can’t that be true?

2295
02:25:48,468 --> 02:25:50,717
What do you think I am?

2296
02:25:51,052 --> 02:25:55,091
And your worst trait is
excessive compassion, right?

2297
02:25:55,177 --> 02:25:57,259
How did you guess?

2298
02:25:59,427 --> 02:26:00,842
I’m serious.

2299
02:26:00,968 --> 02:26:02,926
Are you religious, for example?

2300
02:26:03,427 --> 02:26:04,926
Sometimes.

2301
02:26:05,802 --> 02:26:07,759
Do you think there’s a God?

2302
02:26:08,010 --> 02:26:10,259
For those who believe, he exists.

2303
02:26:10,552 --> 02:26:12,384
You’re avoiding the question.

2304
02:26:12,760 --> 02:26:14,592
Let’s move on.

2305
02:26:15,510 --> 02:26:17,592
Are you fond of your family?

2306
02:26:18,343 --> 02:26:21,134
I’m not overly fond of anything.

2307
02:26:21,677 --> 02:26:25,342
Good, now we’re getting somewhere.

2308
02:26:26,593 --> 02:26:28,426
What else?

2309
02:26:29,260 --> 02:26:30,842
Are you selfish?

2310
02:26:31,052 --> 02:26:32,509
Very.

2311
02:26:32,760 --> 02:26:34,676
Wow, you’re brave.

2312
02:26:35,010 --> 02:26:37,717
When I’m not scared, yes.

2313
02:26:38,468 --> 02:26:40,426
Do you like children?

2314
02:26:41,135 --> 02:26:43,259
Depends on the child, I guess.

2315
02:26:45,177 --> 02:26:47,634
Are you a faithful lover?

2316
02:26:49,593 --> 02:26:51,884
Except in special circumstances, yes.

2317
02:26:52,052 --> 02:26:53,842
What do you mean?

2318
02:26:54,552 --> 02:26:56,092
I think you got it.

2319
02:26:56,343 --> 02:26:57,842
Moving on.

2320
02:27:00,010 --> 02:27:01,967
Do you have a girlfriend?

2321
02:27:03,843 --> 02:27:06,009
- Not for a long time.
- Why not?

2322
02:27:06,385 --> 02:27:08,092
Let’s say I’m picky.

2323
02:27:08,302 --> 02:27:10,051
You’re modest too.

2324
02:27:10,385 --> 02:27:12,051
Let’s drink to that.

2325
02:27:21,177 --> 02:27:23,426
Okay, last question.

2326
02:27:30,843 --> 02:27:34,342
Why didn’t you tell Kenan
about my invitation?

2327
02:27:47,968 --> 02:27:49,717
Take a guess.

2328
02:28:21,593 --> 02:28:24,592
You mentioned something
about history earlier.

2329
02:28:25,552 --> 02:28:27,176
Hope.

2330
02:28:27,593 --> 02:28:29,759
Hope and what?

2331
02:28:29,885 --> 02:28:32,801
The weariness of hope?

2332
02:28:33,510 --> 02:28:34,967
Yes, that’s it.

2333
02:28:35,802 --> 02:28:38,092
The weariness of hope.

2334
02:28:39,468 --> 02:28:40,926
Nice phrase.

2335
02:28:45,343 --> 02:28:47,217
I’m weary too.

2336
02:28:50,802 --> 02:28:53,467
Like I’ve lived a really long time.

2337
02:28:57,552 --> 02:29:00,551
Everything seems to take so long here.

2338
02:29:01,760 --> 02:29:03,092
Lessons,

2339
02:29:03,385 --> 02:29:04,801
breaks,

2340
02:29:05,885 --> 02:29:07,967
waiting for weekends,

2341
02:29:10,760 --> 02:29:12,301
nights,

2342
02:29:13,635 --> 02:29:15,134
everything.

2343
02:32:17,677 --> 02:32:20,169
Could you turn off the living room lights?

2344
02:32:20,302 --> 02:32:22,092
It’s too bright.

2345
02:32:35,370 --> 02:32:37,551
- The lights.
- Alright.

2346
02:35:47,052 --> 02:35:49,384
Honestly, at first it felt a bit weird

2347
02:35:49,510 --> 02:35:51,842
when my leg touched yours,

2348
02:35:52,093 --> 02:35:53,758
but I got used to it.

2349
02:35:53,843 --> 02:35:56,676
Interestingly, I even started to like it.

2350
02:35:56,885 --> 02:35:59,175
You’re not mad I said that?

2351
02:35:59,260 --> 02:36:00,842
No, quite the opposite.

2352
02:36:00,968 --> 02:36:03,717
Besides, if we don’t normalize it right away,

2353
02:36:03,843 --> 02:36:08,134
it’ll hang over us like
the sword of Damocles.

2354
02:36:08,260 --> 02:36:09,967
That’s true.

2355
02:36:10,968 --> 02:36:13,634
In fact, for a moment
it felt like

2356
02:36:14,385 --> 02:36:17,509
what you experienced was destined.

2357
02:36:17,677 --> 02:36:20,592
Like it happened to give you a second life.

2358
02:36:20,718 --> 02:36:24,259
As if this incomplete state
had made you complete.

2359
02:36:24,635 --> 02:36:26,384
You always exaggerate.

2360
02:36:26,552 --> 02:36:28,967
But I like the idea.

2361
02:36:30,901 --> 02:36:32,442
Is that you?

2362
02:36:34,581 --> 02:36:35,735
Yes.

2363
02:36:37,468 --> 02:36:39,710
Early twenties were nice.

2364
02:36:40,343 --> 02:36:42,925
You lived as you pleased, without schedules.

2365
02:36:43,010 --> 02:36:45,384
Everything is so planned now.

2366
02:36:56,843 --> 02:36:58,634
This adjusts the suction.

2367
02:36:58,802 --> 02:37:00,967
Turning it up pushes the air out

2368
02:37:01,135 --> 02:37:03,884
and helps you walk smoother.

2369
02:37:04,010 --> 02:37:05,384
That’s good.

2370
02:37:05,510 --> 02:37:08,008
But it runs down the battery.

2371
02:37:08,093 --> 02:37:11,050
Wow, it’s an advanced
piece of equipment.

2372
02:37:11,135 --> 02:37:12,759
Expensive, though.

2373
02:37:13,337 --> 02:37:16,341
About the price of a new mid-range car.

2374
02:37:16,427 --> 02:37:19,884
- No way.
- Maybe more, since the dollar’s up now.

2375
02:37:20,010 --> 02:37:21,509
Listen.

2376
02:37:21,802 --> 02:37:23,176
Yes?

2377
02:37:31,802 --> 02:37:34,176
You won’t tell Kenan, will you?

2378
02:37:34,843 --> 02:37:36,426
Tell him what?

2379
02:37:39,510 --> 02:37:41,592
What just happened.

2380
02:37:47,927 --> 02:37:49,467
I won’t.

2381
02:37:49,968 --> 02:37:51,634
But why not?

2382
02:37:55,677 --> 02:37:57,134
No reason.

2383
02:37:57,260 --> 02:37:58,759
Just don’t.

2384
02:38:04,093 --> 02:38:06,176
Alright, I won’t.

2385
02:38:06,427 --> 02:38:10,967
I won’t, but what’s the big deal?

2386
02:38:23,552 --> 02:38:27,176
Do you ever see him?

2387
02:38:30,427 --> 02:38:33,258
Sure. He’s teaching me to drive.

2388
02:38:33,343 --> 02:38:37,384
Really? That’s great.

2389
02:38:41,177 --> 02:38:43,134
Wow, Kenan.

2390
02:38:43,552 --> 02:38:46,092
You never mention this stuff.

2391
02:38:56,885 --> 02:38:58,926
Opening the shop on a Sunday?

2392
02:38:59,052 --> 02:39:04,176
My wife’s yakking at home
was driving me crazy.

2393
02:39:04,843 --> 02:39:06,259
I escaped to the shop.

2394
02:39:06,385 --> 02:39:09,051
I made breakfast for myself. Come have some.

2395
02:39:09,177 --> 02:39:11,259
No, thanks. I’ve eaten.

2396
02:39:11,552 --> 02:39:14,801
What happened to the kid? He’s not around.

2397
02:39:16,052 --> 02:39:18,217
Who knows where he’s hiding out.

2398
02:39:18,427 --> 02:39:20,759
He mentioned a nightclub job.

2399
02:39:20,885 --> 02:39:24,216
Same old stories, never mind.

2400
02:39:24,302 --> 02:39:25,884
Why?

2401
02:39:26,218 --> 02:39:27,134
Just asking.

2402
02:39:27,302 --> 02:39:28,926
Couldn’t get the money?

2403
02:39:29,177 --> 02:39:30,550
What money?

2404
02:39:30,635 --> 02:39:32,259
Doesn’t he owe you?

2405
02:39:32,468 --> 02:39:35,716
That doesn’t matter.

2406
02:39:35,802 --> 02:39:38,842
Haven’t seen him for a while. I was worried.

2407
02:39:39,177 --> 02:39:42,426
What about you? Did you clear the air?

2408
02:39:43,177 --> 02:39:45,509
Haven’t seen him since.

2409
02:39:45,677 --> 02:39:47,092
Really?

2410
02:39:47,885 --> 02:39:50,051
- Has he called you?
- No.

2411
02:40:02,927 --> 02:40:05,676
- Um... How are you?
- Good, sir.

2412
02:40:05,885 --> 02:40:08,009
- Your sister?
- Yes.

2413
02:40:31,843 --> 02:40:33,759
- Hi.
- Hi, there.

2414
02:40:34,635 --> 02:40:35,884
Where were you?

2415
02:40:36,052 --> 02:40:37,217
All night?

2416
02:40:37,427 --> 02:40:38,967
Here now.

2417
02:40:39,843 --> 02:40:42,176
And you?
Didn’t you go to your village?

2418
02:40:42,343 --> 02:40:44,092
No, it wasn’t planned.

2419
02:40:44,218 --> 02:40:45,926
I had extra lessons.

2420
02:40:49,052 --> 02:40:51,716
I got warm pastries. Hope you’re not full.

2421
02:40:51,802 --> 02:40:53,301
- With cheese?
- Yeah.

2422
02:40:53,427 --> 02:40:55,092
I’ll have some, then.

2423
02:41:08,593 --> 02:41:10,717
- Weak?
- Okay.

2424
02:41:13,177 --> 02:41:15,259
- Looks good.
- Yeah.

2425
02:41:26,718 --> 02:41:28,426
Where were you?

2426
02:41:29,135 --> 02:41:30,759
Where were you?

2427
02:41:32,677 --> 02:41:34,176
You know,

2428
02:41:34,385 --> 02:41:36,551
life’s so strange.

2429
02:41:36,718 --> 02:41:40,967
Sometime things happen
that you’d never expect.

2430
02:41:41,260 --> 02:41:43,176
What happened?

2431
02:41:43,718 --> 02:41:46,176
I went to the education office yesterday.

2432
02:41:46,468 --> 02:41:49,092
My head was full of this
transfer stuff.

2433
02:41:49,302 --> 02:41:51,592
I was walking around in a daze.

2434
02:41:51,802 --> 02:41:54,176
I got money from the ATM

2435
02:41:54,385 --> 02:41:55,509
and who did I see?

2436
02:41:55,635 --> 02:41:56,634
Who?

2437
02:41:56,760 --> 02:41:57,967
Nuray.

2438
02:41:58,802 --> 02:41:59,676
So?

2439
02:41:59,802 --> 02:42:02,926
We stood and chatted a while.

2440
02:42:03,302 --> 02:42:06,551
So she invited me to her place
for something to eat.

2441
02:42:07,010 --> 02:42:08,467
I said okay.

2442
02:42:08,593 --> 02:42:11,634
Her family had gone someplace.

2443
02:42:12,927 --> 02:42:15,801
We went there and talked.

2444
02:42:16,468 --> 02:42:19,426
It was such a nice talk. Really.

2445
02:42:19,552 --> 02:42:23,426
I wasn’t expecting that. She’s really smart.

2446
02:42:25,885 --> 02:42:28,342
We had something to eat and drink.

2447
02:42:28,885 --> 02:42:31,467
Then wine, alcohol and so on...

2448
02:42:34,635 --> 02:42:36,134
And?

2449
02:42:37,052 --> 02:42:38,509
And,

2450
02:42:38,677 --> 02:42:40,134
I don’t know.

2451
02:42:40,760 --> 02:42:46,134
“Am I doing something I’ll regret later?”

2452
02:42:46,343 --> 02:42:48,051
I don’t know.

2453
02:42:51,218 --> 02:42:52,842
Meaning?

2454
02:42:54,510 --> 02:42:59,426
You never know what life will bring.

2455
02:42:59,593 --> 02:43:03,759
I don’t believe in fate or stuff,
but it kinda felt like that.

2456
02:43:08,343 --> 02:43:11,717
I think these things are outside our control.

2457
02:43:11,843 --> 02:43:15,759
They take place in those hazy areas
beyond our will.

2458
02:43:15,885 --> 02:43:19,134
And so they’re the kind of acts

2459
02:43:19,260 --> 02:43:23,176
we don’t need to feel responsible for.

2460
02:43:24,885 --> 02:43:26,926
Eat up. I’m not having much.

2461
02:43:27,260 --> 02:43:28,467
I will.

2462
02:43:32,718 --> 02:43:34,759
I’m so tired.

2463
02:43:36,760 --> 02:43:39,134
Luckily it’s Sunday today.

2464
02:43:39,302 --> 02:43:41,051
I’m gonna rest.

2465
02:46:57,093 --> 02:46:59,426
- Hey, what’s up?
- Hey.

2466
02:48:08,760 --> 02:48:10,509
- Nuray.
- Hi.

2467
02:48:10,760 --> 02:48:12,759
Sorry, I came uninvited.

2468
02:48:12,885 --> 02:48:15,717
No problem. Welcome, come in.

2469
02:48:15,927 --> 02:48:17,634
What brought you here?

2470
02:48:17,927 --> 02:48:19,675
Come in.

2471
02:48:19,760 --> 02:48:23,009
- With my shoes?
- Sure, it’s already a mess.

2472
02:48:23,177 --> 02:48:25,009
I surprised you, huh?

2473
02:48:25,302 --> 02:48:27,717
I bet you weren’t expecting me.

2474
02:48:27,843 --> 02:48:31,258
That’s true. But what a nice surprise.

2475
02:48:31,343 --> 02:48:35,717
I called Kenan, but he didn’t answer,
so I thought I’d try my luck.

2476
02:48:35,843 --> 02:48:40,259
I didn’t hear. I was working,
my phone was on silent.

2477
02:48:41,677 --> 02:48:45,259
Take a seat, please. I’ll take your coat.

2478
02:48:45,385 --> 02:48:48,259
No need, thanks. I won’t stay long.

2479
02:48:51,718 --> 02:48:54,509
So how did you get here
at this time of day?

2480
02:48:54,885 --> 02:48:56,217
By car.

2481
02:48:56,468 --> 02:48:57,759
What car?

2482
02:48:57,885 --> 02:48:58,967
My own car.

2483
02:48:59,135 --> 02:49:00,926
It came, then.

2484
02:49:01,052 --> 02:49:02,300
Yes.

2485
02:49:02,385 --> 02:49:04,134
That’s great. When?

2486
02:49:04,260 --> 02:49:05,967
A few days ago.

2487
02:49:06,218 --> 02:49:09,760
Called Kenan to ask him to come,
but he didn’t answer.

2488
02:49:09,887 --> 02:49:11,614
- So I got it alone.
- Congrats.

2489
02:49:11,740 --> 02:49:13,051
Thanks.

2490
02:49:13,427 --> 02:49:17,509
Congrats, but how did you dare come here

2491
02:49:17,635 --> 02:49:20,509
in this weather
on your own?

2492
02:49:20,635 --> 02:49:22,216
We could’ve picked you up.

2493
02:49:22,302 --> 02:49:23,967
Thanks, there was no need.

2494
02:49:24,135 --> 02:49:26,842
I’ve got to get used to it.

2495
02:49:27,135 --> 02:49:29,508
Kenan was busy, I guess,

2496
02:49:29,593 --> 02:49:31,842
so I had to do it myself.

2497
02:49:32,135 --> 02:49:35,217
Actually, it was good.
You learn better on your own.

2498
02:49:35,343 --> 02:49:39,551
I’d have come, but I thought you didn’t
need me any more.

2499
02:49:40,135 --> 02:49:41,551
Thanks.

2500
02:49:43,552 --> 02:49:46,467
We made tea. Want some?

2501
02:49:46,593 --> 02:49:48,509
Or something cold? A beer?

2502
02:49:48,635 --> 02:49:49,676
Tea’s fine.

2503
02:49:49,802 --> 02:49:51,551
Right away. Kenan?

2504
02:49:51,677 --> 02:49:53,426
No, I’m fine.

2505
02:50:09,802 --> 02:50:11,884
- Thanks.
- Enjoy.

2506
02:50:13,968 --> 02:50:16,801
How did you find this place in the dark?

2507
02:50:16,927 --> 02:50:17,967
GPS!

2508
02:50:18,093 --> 02:50:20,633
Ah, right. Well done.

2509
02:50:20,718 --> 02:50:22,384
I didn’t only come here.

2510
02:50:22,552 --> 02:50:25,509
You know that village called Kirgindere?

2511
02:50:25,885 --> 02:50:26,800
Down that way.

2512
02:50:26,885 --> 02:50:28,592
I have a sick student there.

2513
02:50:28,760 --> 02:50:30,384
He hardly came this year.

2514
02:50:30,510 --> 02:50:34,217
Now that I drive, I can tutor him
so he doesn’t fall behind.

2515
02:50:34,468 --> 02:50:37,467
Since you’re nearby, I decided to drop by.

2516
02:50:37,635 --> 02:50:39,217
That was good.

2517
02:50:41,927 --> 02:50:43,509
What was?

2518
02:50:44,343 --> 02:50:47,217
Your student. It was a good idea.

2519
02:50:54,552 --> 02:50:56,176
So, Kenan.

2520
02:50:56,677 --> 02:50:59,217
Why don’t you answer your phone?

2521
02:51:03,677 --> 02:51:05,426
No particular reason.

2522
02:51:05,718 --> 02:51:07,467
No particular reason?

2523
02:51:07,677 --> 02:51:09,217
- No.
- What is it, then?

2524
02:51:13,385 --> 02:51:14,842
Nothing.

2525
02:51:16,593 --> 02:51:18,134
What does all this mean?

2526
02:51:18,260 --> 02:51:20,091
I really don’t get it.

2527
02:51:20,177 --> 02:51:25,717
What happened between us
to justify this attitude?

2528
02:51:26,052 --> 02:51:29,383
- What’s wrong?
- Yeah, that’s what I’m asking.

2529
02:51:29,468 --> 02:51:32,676
How do friendships,
that started with such timidity,

2530
02:51:32,802 --> 02:51:35,759
suddenly turn into arrogance?

2531
02:51:36,802 --> 02:51:39,426
Are you serious?

2532
02:51:40,093 --> 02:51:41,967
What happened?

2533
02:51:45,552 --> 02:51:48,134
Let me ask it this way, then.

2534
02:51:50,718 --> 02:51:52,926
Did I do something wrong?

2535
02:51:56,468 --> 02:51:57,884
No.

2536
02:51:59,968 --> 02:52:04,301
Does what happened with Samet
make me guilty for you?

2537
02:52:09,968 --> 02:52:13,051
Did I betray your friendship?

2538
02:52:18,218 --> 02:52:23,592
Or do I fall short
of the moral standard you imagine in a girl?

2539
02:52:26,677 --> 02:52:29,801
Please don’t think
I expect anything from you.

2540
02:52:30,177 --> 02:52:31,842
I don’t.

2541
02:52:32,218 --> 02:52:33,926
I’m just curious.

2542
02:52:36,510 --> 02:52:39,259
It’s the first time in my current state

2543
02:52:40,052 --> 02:52:43,426
that I’m testing how
others perceive me as a woman.

2544
02:52:44,343 --> 02:52:46,092
I’m questioning

2545
02:52:46,718 --> 02:52:48,926
what I have the right

2546
02:52:49,302 --> 02:52:51,884
or the strength to do
in this new state.

2547
02:52:52,010 --> 02:52:57,176
Trying to see what place I occupy
in this world now.

2548
02:53:00,260 --> 02:53:03,551
I need to know
what I lost along with this leg,

2549
02:53:04,802 --> 02:53:07,217
and what I still have.

2550
02:53:07,760 --> 02:53:11,009
I’m not expecting
pity, compassion or understanding.

2551
02:53:11,302 --> 02:53:13,840
I mean, nothing is expected here.

2552
02:53:13,973 --> 02:53:16,079
We don’t have to
see each other again.

2553
02:53:16,205 --> 02:53:17,832
That’s fine too.

2554
02:53:19,052 --> 02:53:21,883
You might be right
in your own way.

2555
02:53:21,968 --> 02:53:24,259
I don’t know. It’s possible.

2556
02:53:24,718 --> 02:53:26,134
But

2557
02:53:26,677 --> 02:53:28,509
it seems to me that

2558
02:53:28,968 --> 02:53:31,134
everything beautiful in this world

2559
02:53:31,302 --> 02:53:33,551
gets stuck in the webs we weave

2560
02:53:33,927 --> 02:53:36,717
before it ever reaches us.

2561
02:53:43,718 --> 02:53:45,092
Anyway.

2562
02:53:45,635 --> 02:53:48,584
Sorry, I came unannounced. It’s best if I go.

2563
02:53:48,800 --> 02:53:50,301
- Wait.
- Thanks for the tea.

2564
02:53:50,427 --> 02:53:52,413
Sit down, please.
Don’t go like this.

2565
02:53:52,540 --> 02:53:55,592
Let go, I’m fine. I’ll go just as I came.

2566
02:53:55,718 --> 02:53:57,300
The weather’s worse.

2567
02:53:57,385 --> 02:53:59,301
Nuray.

2568
02:53:59,927 --> 02:54:03,717
Come back. Look, let’s talk some more.

2569
02:54:03,885 --> 02:54:04,884
Wait.

2570
02:54:05,010 --> 02:54:06,051
Nuray!

2571
02:54:07,260 --> 02:54:08,634
Nuray!

2572
02:54:33,260 --> 02:54:34,926
What’s going on?

2573
02:54:40,843 --> 02:54:42,301
Nothing.

2574
02:54:44,260 --> 02:54:46,134
What do you mean, “nothing”?

2575
02:54:58,302 --> 02:55:00,217
Can you take me back to town?

2576
02:55:00,343 --> 02:55:02,259
The snow’s much heavier.

2577
02:56:24,135 --> 02:56:26,759
<i>When I first came here,</i>

2578
02:56:27,135 --> 02:56:29,592
<i>they told me there were only two seasons...</i>

2579
02:56:29,718 --> 02:56:31,967
<i>Winter and summer.</i>

2580
02:56:33,385 --> 02:56:35,217
<i>They were right.</i>

2581
02:56:36,010 --> 02:56:38,676
<i>Straight into summer, no spring.</i>

2582
02:56:40,718 --> 02:56:44,634
<i>Grasses covered by snow for long months</i>

2583
02:56:44,843 --> 02:56:47,426
<i>grew yellow without becoming green.</i>

2584
02:56:50,084 --> 02:56:51,550
<i>Even the birds</i>

2585
02:56:51,635 --> 02:56:55,676
<i>that sang happily a few weeks ago
were chirping wearily.</i>

2586
02:57:00,635 --> 02:57:02,633
<i>I was like an abandoned mill,</i>

2587
02:57:02,718 --> 02:57:05,426
<i>a useless, rundown mill</i>

2588
02:57:05,718 --> 02:57:10,051
<i>that even birds ignored,
waiting for demolition.</i>

2589
02:57:11,385 --> 02:57:14,301
<i>In this forgotten,
remote corner of the earth,</i>

2590
02:57:14,427 --> 02:57:16,592
<i>like many other things,</i>

2591
02:57:17,260 --> 02:57:19,676
<i>the line between good and evil,</i>

2592
02:57:19,802 --> 02:57:22,591
<i>and pain and happiness,
was blurred.</i>

2593
02:57:22,677 --> 02:57:25,759
<i>Everything seemed to happen</i>

2594
02:57:25,885 --> 02:57:27,884
<i>only to forget time.</i>

2595
02:57:29,802 --> 02:57:33,841
<i>As if this incessant snow was striving
to bury everything</i>

2596
02:57:33,927 --> 02:57:37,217
<i>and make oblivion possible.</i>

2597
02:57:39,260 --> 02:57:43,509
<i>Seasons come and go,
hopes are born and die,</i>

2598
02:57:44,468 --> 02:57:46,134
<i>but still, life goes on</i>

2599
02:57:46,302 --> 02:57:51,467
<i>with a patient belief
based on something unknown.</i>

2600
02:57:55,302 --> 02:57:59,002
<i>My time to get out of here
was approaching.</i>

2601
02:57:59,782 --> 02:58:01,091
<i>This morning,</i>

2602
02:58:01,177 --> 02:58:04,050
<i>for the first time since
the trouble with Sevim,</i>

2603
02:58:04,135 --> 02:58:07,759
<i>I carefully combed my hair
and even whistled.</i>

2604
02:58:09,218 --> 02:58:11,842
<i>It was the last days of school, after all.</i>

2605
02:58:11,974 --> 02:58:13,633
<i>There was the charity sale</i>

2606
02:58:13,718 --> 02:58:16,301
<i>and the graduation ceremony later.</i>

2607
02:58:21,218 --> 02:58:24,092
Well done, Tolga, you get a free dinner.

2608
02:58:24,218 --> 02:58:26,009
Where have you been?

2609
02:58:26,343 --> 02:58:28,426
Why? I was packing.

2610
02:58:28,552 --> 02:58:30,717
You haven’t stamped
your report cards.

2611
02:58:30,843 --> 02:58:31,925
Careful, boy.

2612
02:58:32,010 --> 02:58:35,051
Calm down. Don’t panic, I’ll do it now.

2613
02:58:35,218 --> 02:58:36,884
Do what you like.

2614
02:58:37,177 --> 02:58:40,509
But they say the director is coming.

2615
02:58:41,760 --> 02:58:42,800
Really?

2616
02:58:42,885 --> 02:58:43,842
Yeah.

2617
02:58:44,760 --> 02:58:45,967
Great.

2618
02:59:49,802 --> 02:59:52,842
What’s up? Have you decided to be nice?

2619
02:59:54,927 --> 02:59:57,801
Will such small kindnesses save you?

2620
02:59:58,177 --> 03:00:00,426
You want it on the floor?

2621
03:00:01,052 --> 03:00:02,384
No,

2622
03:00:02,677 --> 03:00:04,467
you did the right thing.

2623
03:00:05,885 --> 03:00:07,342
Who sent the cake?

2624
03:00:07,468 --> 03:00:09,717
We’re taking some to all the teachers.

2625
03:00:09,968 --> 03:00:14,051
That’s not what I asked.
Consider the question again.

2626
03:00:18,010 --> 03:00:19,759
And you’re laughing.

2627
03:00:20,010 --> 03:00:22,759
You’re funny, really funny.

2628
03:00:22,885 --> 03:00:26,717
The cake was cut and we did the rest.

2629
03:00:27,052 --> 03:00:28,759
Who sent it, who?

2630
03:00:29,218 --> 03:00:31,259
We did. Ourselves, sir.

2631
03:00:32,010 --> 03:00:34,842
I brought the cake. My mother made it.

2632
03:00:35,468 --> 03:00:36,759
Ha!

2633
03:00:37,052 --> 03:00:38,884
Alright, I got it.

2634
03:00:40,260 --> 03:00:42,384
Isn’t lipstick forbidden?

2635
03:00:42,552 --> 03:00:45,259
You’re not graduating. Why dress up?

2636
03:00:48,510 --> 03:00:52,967
You’re lucky I’m leaving,
or I’d really give you a hard time.

2637
03:00:55,218 --> 03:00:56,759
Sorry.

2638
03:00:58,052 --> 03:01:00,592
As if everything was sorted out,

2639
03:01:01,510 --> 03:01:04,217
you apologize for lipstick?

2640
03:01:05,635 --> 03:01:09,509
I don’t care, put on tar if you like.

2641
03:01:10,510 --> 03:01:12,509
No, don’t close it.

2642
03:01:13,177 --> 03:01:14,676
Don’t.

2643
03:01:15,052 --> 03:01:16,509
Leave it open.

2644
03:01:24,804 --> 03:01:26,282
Well,

2645
03:01:27,843 --> 03:01:29,926
this is how it ends, Sevim.

2646
03:01:30,343 --> 03:01:32,092
For me, I mean.

2647
03:01:32,385 --> 03:01:34,759
This story, this place.

2648
03:01:35,718 --> 03:01:40,467
It’s time to forget what happened
and this dump.

2649
03:01:41,343 --> 03:01:43,176
Let’s see how this tastes.

2650
03:01:44,427 --> 03:01:47,801
Sit down. Don’t stand there like a soldier.

2651
03:01:50,885 --> 03:01:52,384
It’s good.

2652
03:01:53,552 --> 03:01:55,385
Cookie cake. I used to make it.

2653
03:01:55,593 --> 03:01:57,717
It’s easy. I made it, actually.

2654
03:01:57,885 --> 03:01:59,384
Really?

2655
03:02:00,843 --> 03:02:02,676
Well done.

2656
03:02:10,302 --> 03:02:14,884
There’s something I
wanted to talk to you about.

2657
03:02:16,052 --> 03:02:19,467
It’s no big deal, but since you’re here.

2658
03:02:21,468 --> 03:02:22,759
Well,

2659
03:02:23,010 --> 03:02:27,176
actually, I wanted to ask you something.

2660
03:02:27,593 --> 03:02:29,926
Something I’m curious about.

2661
03:02:32,010 --> 03:02:33,384
Sit down.

2662
03:02:33,593 --> 03:02:35,467
If you like, I mean.

2663
03:02:49,760 --> 03:02:52,676
I requested a transfer. You probably heard.

2664
03:02:52,927 --> 03:02:56,342
I’m leaving soon and won’t be back.

2665
03:02:56,635 --> 03:03:00,134
So at times like this,

2666
03:03:01,468 --> 03:03:04,216
you tend to look back
over everything.

2667
03:03:04,302 --> 03:03:07,634
Everything that’s happened.

2668
03:03:09,135 --> 03:03:12,092
You wonder if there might be

2669
03:03:12,718 --> 03:03:15,217
anyone who’s been hurt,

2670
03:03:15,385 --> 03:03:18,259
anyone who might need some last words

2671
03:03:18,385 --> 03:03:20,509
or an apology.

2672
03:03:25,468 --> 03:03:30,301
Considering I’ll never return,

2673
03:03:30,802 --> 03:03:35,717
I was wondering if Sevim wanted
to tell me anything.

2674
03:03:38,510 --> 03:03:39,884
Get out.

2675
03:03:40,093 --> 03:03:41,467
Out!

2676
03:03:48,135 --> 03:03:50,092
Where was I?

2677
03:03:50,510 --> 03:03:52,717
Yes, since I’m going

2678
03:03:53,093 --> 03:03:55,676
and won’t be back,

2679
03:03:56,302 --> 03:04:00,926
is there anything you might like to say
before I go,

2680
03:04:01,177 --> 03:04:03,134
dear Sevim?

2681
03:04:05,010 --> 03:04:06,926
Like what, sir?

2682
03:04:07,885 --> 03:04:10,217
I’m saying, I’m leaving

2683
03:04:10,635 --> 03:04:12,592
and won’t be back next year.

2684
03:04:12,760 --> 03:04:15,884
If there’s anything to say, now’s the time.

2685
03:04:16,093 --> 03:04:19,259
You’ll never get another chance.

2686
03:04:20,385 --> 03:04:22,676
What kind of thing do you mean, sir?

2687
03:04:26,427 --> 03:04:29,217
I don’t know. That’s for you to know.

2688
03:04:37,718 --> 03:04:41,551
If you say you don’t know,
that’s also an answer.

2689
03:04:45,760 --> 03:04:47,759
It would mean

2690
03:04:48,510 --> 03:04:53,341
that you’re a shallow person
who has no values.

2691
03:04:53,427 --> 03:04:55,592
And honestly, that’d upset me.

2692
03:04:55,760 --> 03:05:00,426
I’d feel a bit stupid for
having cared about you.

2693
03:05:09,510 --> 03:05:11,384
What I mean is,

2694
03:05:12,218 --> 03:05:14,926
you’d really upset and disappoint me.

2695
03:05:15,093 --> 03:05:18,092
Whether you meant to, I don’t know.

2696
03:05:19,843 --> 03:05:23,134
Don’t even care about the reason anymore.

2697
03:05:23,385 --> 03:05:27,009
Because I realized
I still haven’t figured people out.

2698
03:05:28,260 --> 03:05:30,592
I still haven’t understood

2699
03:05:31,468 --> 03:05:35,259
who’s worthy or not, who’s special
and who isn’t.

2700
03:05:36,427 --> 03:05:38,967
It was my biggest mistake,

2701
03:05:40,177 --> 03:05:42,467
if I ever made one.

2702
03:05:47,635 --> 03:05:50,134
So, you have nothing to say?

2703
03:05:53,427 --> 03:05:55,634
What should I say, sir?

2704
03:05:56,677 --> 03:05:58,342
Look at you.

2705
03:05:58,927 --> 03:06:00,551
Instead of being ashamed,

2706
03:06:00,677 --> 03:06:02,467
you’re laughing.

2707
03:06:04,802 --> 03:06:06,551
I’m not laughing.

2708
03:06:08,552 --> 03:06:10,051
Whatever.

2709
03:06:10,677 --> 03:06:12,217
Don’t worry.

2710
03:06:13,427 --> 03:06:15,676
I’m not blaming you.

2711
03:06:16,135 --> 03:06:21,217
What could you say after all this, anyway?

2712
03:06:22,343 --> 03:06:24,509
What is there to say?

2713
03:06:26,218 --> 03:06:27,676
Okay.

2714
03:06:29,135 --> 03:06:30,676
Alright.

2715
03:06:38,093 --> 03:06:39,801
What’s up?

2716
03:06:41,593 --> 03:06:43,551
May I go?

2717
03:06:44,468 --> 03:06:47,176
Sure. I have things to do anyway.

2718
03:06:54,135 --> 03:06:56,384
But you’ll come to the celebration?

2719
03:07:00,302 --> 03:07:02,092
Alright, I will.

2720
03:07:56,968 --> 03:07:59,426
Come here. A bit closer.

2721
03:08:59,927 --> 03:09:02,009
<i>After I left them,</i>

2722
03:09:02,468 --> 03:09:06,509
<i>I started walking up the hill
covered by dry grasses.</i>

2723
03:09:11,968 --> 03:09:15,717
<i>Thin dried up grasses
I don’t even know the names of.</i>

2724
03:09:16,843 --> 03:09:20,926
<i>These nameless, humble grasses that
no one cares about</i>

2725
03:09:21,427 --> 03:09:25,759
<i>seemed important to me for the first time,</i>

2726
03:09:26,635 --> 03:09:30,801
<i>for they are perceived as worthless,
like my life here.</i>

2727
03:09:36,385 --> 03:09:38,426
<i>Then I thought of Sevim,</i>

2728
03:09:39,343 --> 03:09:41,676
<i>what I looked for in her.</i>

2729
03:09:43,135 --> 03:09:47,759
<i>In this lifeless, motionless landscape,
what I was looking for in her...</i>

2730
03:09:49,760 --> 03:09:52,842
<i>was perhaps something
I couldn’t find in myself.</i>

2731
03:09:54,093 --> 03:09:55,926
<i>A kind of energy,</i>

2732
03:09:56,843 --> 03:09:59,426
<i>a tiny sign of transcendence.</i>

2733
03:10:00,843 --> 03:10:04,426
<i>I didn’t dream of her, but beyond.</i>

2734
03:10:05,677 --> 03:10:06,883
<i>I just wanted</i>

2735
03:10:06,968 --> 03:10:11,676
<i>to make her a means for a dream world
I had built beyond her.</i>

2736
03:10:13,718 --> 03:10:15,467
<i>But I knew</i>

2737
03:10:16,135 --> 03:10:18,051
<i>that between us</i>

2738
03:10:18,260 --> 03:10:23,134
<i>there was an abyss deep and wide enough
to choke our cries.</i>

2739
03:10:24,718 --> 03:10:29,259
<i>A distance too cruel for
our consciousnesses to approach.</i>

2740
03:10:36,385 --> 03:10:38,926
<i>I dreamed of the impossible.</i>

2741
03:10:40,177 --> 03:10:41,676
<i>And now,</i>

2742
03:10:42,093 --> 03:10:44,842
<i>I’m talking to her in my head again.</i>

2743
03:10:50,052 --> 03:10:51,467
<i>Sevim!</i>

2744
03:10:56,718 --> 03:10:59,759
<i>I lied to you last time we spoke.</i>

2745
03:11:01,802 --> 03:11:06,259
<i>Despite my efforts to convince myself,
I don’t regret knowing you.</i>

2746
03:11:09,760 --> 03:11:12,759
<i>I wish I could see myself through your eyes.</i>

2747
03:11:14,385 --> 03:11:17,426
<i>It’s obvious you won’t be like me
in the future.</i>

2748
03:11:18,510 --> 03:11:22,426
<i>You’ll be a petulant, ferocious,
happy and hopeful woman</i>

2749
03:11:22,552 --> 03:11:26,426
<i>who can establish
a closer, more direct connection with life.</i>

2750
03:11:29,927 --> 03:11:32,592
<i>Because of this, I feel sorrow,</i>

2751
03:11:32,968 --> 03:11:35,717
<i>but I am also happy for you.</i>

2752
03:11:37,350 --> 03:11:39,307
<i>That’s how life is.</i>

2753
03:11:40,385 --> 03:11:43,301
<i>Even this coincidence that
brought us together</i>

2754
03:11:43,427 --> 03:11:46,009
<i>is an astonishing mystery.</i>

2755
03:11:47,593 --> 03:11:51,217
<i>The feeling that arises
as this idea takes shape,</i>

2756
03:11:51,510 --> 03:11:54,967
<i>means all that happened
cannot be deemed worthless.</i>

2757
03:11:56,260 --> 03:11:57,509
<i>Yes.</i>

2758
03:11:57,718 --> 03:12:00,092
<i>Experiences, words,</i>

2759
03:12:00,260 --> 03:12:01,801
<i>and emotions,</i>

2760
03:12:02,677 --> 03:12:07,801
<i>perhaps reflected in some
dark corridor of the universe.</i>

2761
03:12:10,418 --> 03:12:12,301
<i>But as it turns out,</i>

2762
03:12:13,052 --> 03:12:16,426
<i>the truth is as brutal as it is boring.</i>

2763
03:12:18,538 --> 03:12:20,250
<i>You’ll realize this</i>

2764
03:12:20,635 --> 03:12:22,592
<i>like everyone else.</i>

2765
03:12:25,711 --> 03:12:27,793
<i>Time will pass,</i>

2766
03:12:28,891 --> 03:12:34,307
<i>and if you survive in this
land of unending setbacks,</i>

2767
03:12:36,010 --> 03:12:40,217
<i>you will still turn yellow
and dry up in the end.</i>

2768
03:12:42,385 --> 03:12:45,759
<i>You will find yourself at the
midpoint of your life,</i>

2769
03:12:46,927 --> 03:12:50,884
<i>and see you’ve gained nothing
but the desert inside you.</i>

2770
03:12:52,468 --> 03:12:54,719
<i>Nothing else.</i>
