drama / Turkey-2022-150 '/directed by Mustafa Deniz
Logline:
Having lost his father and seeing it as the beginning of his own death, Yağmur returns to
his hometown to fill in his father's shoes.
Synopsis:
Having completed his drawn-out university education in Ankara, Yağmur returns to his
parents’ house in Muğla; however this is a short-term stay. He contemplates moving to
İstanbul in an attempt to make a professional living from photography, which he had
taken up as a hobby while in university. Nevertheless his father Orhan passes away
shortly after. With his death, Yağmur feels like he is at the early stages of a trauma that
will last for an extended period of time, and photography seems vague and hopeless to
him. He starts working in a bank after almost everyone around him prompts him to do so.
Feeling pretty distant from his ideals, Yağmur makes plans to leave his long-term
girlfriend Fulya and return to his hometown. One weekend he packs the hair clipper and
the soaked books that are the embodiment of his regrets, and travels to Muğla without
notifying his sister Yaprak and mother Şennur. As a matter of fact, this is a rehearsal to
return for good.
