"If someone kills a human being it is as if he has killed the entire humanity.

And if someone saves a life, it is as if he has saved the entire humanity." (Quran)

(Singing)

Push me high sister, high!

Make me fly high, sis!

You will fall down and hurt yourself, girl! Why do you want to fly high? Little shrimp!

(Singing)

Ayse go see what Nedime is doing inside!

Take the laundry inside too.

- What's wrong with you dear? - Nothing, mum.

Ayse, bring your dad's pyjamas to me.

Let's hang them out to dry, while the sun's still up.

OK mum.

My princess!

What's the matter with you dear? What's wrong with you little darling?

Nothing's wrong dad. I'm OK.

My angel.

Make me fly high, sis!

- Don't work too hard... - Thank you sir.

Well done...

If my father were alive to see it, he'd really love it.

Have you seen that bastard Deniz?

He used to drop by every day, But I haven't seen him in a while.

Have you seen him Kenan?

I swear, I haven't seen him for two weeks.

Osman why is this guy hanging around here?

It's his place, he can hang around all he wants. What's it to you?

A gang of human traffickers was busted...

We're starting our news today with a very important item.

A gang of human traffickers was busted after a magic sting.

The gang, who has smuggled dozens of women and children...

...illegally into the country in return for large sums of money...

...was discovered by an investigation by police intelligence.

Ayse! Ayse!

Osman help! Ayse is dying!

Ayse dear daughter open your eyes!

Leave them now, go get cologne from inside!

Ayse! Ayse don't do this! Ayse!

Mr. Demir!

Mr. Demir!

Ayse my daughter, my daughter!

O God if she survives I'll sacrifice an animal...

Deniz?

Where are you Deniz?

Deniz? Where are you Deniz?

Where are you Deniz?

Deniz? Where are you?

Inhale!

Exhale!

Inhale!

Hatice!

Inhale!

Exhale!

- Don't they have female doctor here? - How would I know?

Professor, there is a foreign lady here asking for something.

- Let her wait Mahmut. I'll see her. - OK.

- Ayse? - Dear darling?

- You wait here. - My child.

Osman!

Hi. Ayse didn't pass out because she hit the ground.

She has a cardiac aryhythmia. We've transferred her to the intensive care unit.

We may need to operate.

Surgery?

We may need to transfer her to Antalya. It depends on her situation.

- Hope she gets well soon. - Thank you.

Yes please Mr. Police Officer?

Deniz Gokce, sir.

Yes we talked to his relatives. He didn't go to his hometown.

We are waiting for your answer.

Thank you very much, sir, my regards, thank you.

Professor...

- We got a problem here. - What is it?

The girl is pregnant.

What do you mean, pregnant?

I mean, she's pregnant. And she's in her 13th week.

My God, she's only a child. How did she end up pregnant?

What shall we do?

What do you mean by what shall we do? Call Dr. Sait from gynaecology immediately.

Mr. Officer, the last we know is that he took his salary...

...lately and said he was going on a short trip to Antalya.

Mr. Officer, Mr. Hayati is on the other line. I'll call you back later, ok?

Ok. Thank you.

Hello Mr. Hayati?

Is there a problem? OK. I'm on my way.

Chief Doctor called. I'll be right back. You just wait for me here.

Osman what's going on? Do you any idea, for God's sake?

Her baby?

- Hopefully we will save both of them, right Professor? - Hopefully.

The children are home alone.

Will Kenan be able take care of them?

He has been a restless boy recently.

She is sleeping.

Ohh, you are German?

Let me see her.

I checked from the door. She is not even visible.

You can see her when she wakes up.

My brother Huseyin hasn't come yet I guess.

Well, Mr. Demir isn't around.

Osman, do you think there is something we don't know?

Aborting the baby would be risky.

Yes... Is it the right thing to hide it from her family?

Are those guys from Elâzığ?

Yeah. They are brothers.

They are working for me in Antalya in construction.

It's just like a house isn't it Osman?

Yeah...

I should talk to them and go to Germany.

How will you go?

My brother Huseyin went there.

Your brother Huseyin can go to space if he wants.

But how will you go?

I tell them I'm Kurdish.

You don't even speak Kurdish.

As if they know.

Please don't crowd around the door!

Please let me hug my daughter just once.

Not now, ma'am.

They are talking about surgery eh?

Oh Lord.

How will you pay for the surgery, Osman?

Well, Hatice does have a little savings. But not enough I'm afraid.

I bought a plot of land once. I guess I'll have to sell it.

I don't have much either.

You know I would never leave my brother in a fix, if only I had it.

I know brother...

Money doesn't matter as long as our daughter is safe.

We can live on bread and onions just as well.

God willing, how long is she going to be in the hospital?

They say a couple of days.

Did you call our family in Elâzığ? Hope they don't shrug off later.

Don't trouble them. It's a long and tiring journey.

They would suffer on the way.

Oh here you are. I was looking for you. There is nothing to worry about. Guess what?

Guess?

Girl or boy?

Girl or boy?

Good news, you are pregnant.

Pregnant?

Oh God.

What is wrong with that woman?

She is pregnant.

For God's sake tell me my daughter, are these doctors hiding something from us?

Ayla, I want to abort the baby! But why, Stefanie?

Sir, are you the father of the baby?

Yeah, she is sleeping like a baby isn't she?

I don't mean that, I mean the baby in her belly.

I will kill you all, you bastards!

What's happened, Osman?

Go find out right now!

Otherwise I kill you both, I swear.

What's going on with you Osman?

Osman! Osman open your hands.

Open his hands! Open your hands!

How could you?

What is it? What's going on Osman, don't drive me nuts.

How can I say it?

How can I...

Brother I can't dare speak.

What am I going to do now?

Don't make me crazy, Osman.

She's pregnant.

Who is pregnant?

She...

What happened to her?

She has drunk insecticides.

Oh my, you see what happened.

Seyit!

Hold the child for a moment!

Bastard!

How could you do that to your uncle?! How dare you?

Tell me!

What honourable man would do this to his uncle?

I don't know who you took after.

Bastard!

How can I look my brother in the face now?

How will I look my uncle in the face now?

That girl doesn't exist for me Hatice. She's finished.

Go find out who knocked her up?

I said go!

Who is the father of your bastard?

You know your father will kill you.

He will just cut your throat.

- Tell me, who? - Please mum.

- Tell me, who it is? - Please mum.

Look here ma'am! Are you going to keep going in and out as you please?

Don't come in here every two seconds. Go outside now.

What's up little Ayse?

Everything is going to be fine.

When will we be able to leave, doctor?

Let's see how she does today and...

...then we'll decide depending on the situation.

They say the girl has killed herself.

Where did Kenan and Seyit go?

I don't know.

Who is it?

I couldn't find out. She stares at me like a pig.

What do you mean you couldn't find out? Don't drive me nuts here.

This is a hospital, everybody is staring at us!

I don't care. Why didn't you find out? I'll kill her!

What are we gonna do brother? What do I do now? How do I face people now?

We call the family in Elâzığ. Whatever the elders decide, that's what we'll do.

I will kill her. I swear on God I will kill her.

- Welcome uncle. - Thank you my nephew.

Welcome uncle.

Don't be upset, be strong. We will do whatever we have to.

I don't know...

Don't get all worked up. May God preserve you!

Believe me uncle; I don't have anything to do with this.

Don't be sad...

Where is Hatice?

In the hospital.

When will they discharge her?

They keep saying today, tomorrow.

Soon I guess.

Let me talk to Seyit first.

Your father will kill you...

I wish I'd give birth to a bar of soap rather than you.

Better had died than bring all this on us.

How are you little Ayse?

What will you name your baby?

Get well soon.

- Are you her mother? - Yeah!

Ayse has had a serious attack.

Her pregnancy is making it even more difficult...

Ayse needs lots of liquids and plenty of rest.

And she should get her medications regularly. OK?

When she recovers a little, an operation in a hospital with better facilities...

This is no joke, she needs the surgery.

Hope she gets well soon.

Now.. Come on and tell me. Who is it?

Did you learn who it was?

Osman! Come on man, Osman.

Bring an onion!

I talked to Seyit.

The boy swears he didn't do it.

What is it about that guy Mr. Demir?

What about him??

What's up with him?

- God bless you. - Thank you uncle.

Be careful with the gearshift of the car! It sometimes gets jammed.

..3 kids and 6 adults were rescued from the sinking boat.

And three bodies have been found so far.

Those rescued are now being treated in Bodrum Public Hospital.

The search continues for passengers of a capsized boat in the Aegean Sea.

The boat was reportedly carrying around..

..fourty people who had entered in Turkey illegally...

...with hopes of reaching Europe through Greece.

Our next news item: "A barbaric act"

A man and his wife, seasonal workers on a farm in Mersin,..

..killed their own daughter after they learned about her illegitimate pregnancy.

The father claimed he did not regret his actions.

Do you feel any remorse?

If my other daughter did the same thing, I'd do it again.

I cleared my honour! I have no regrets!

Now we have a guest in the studio, assistant professor...

Osman, how is the girl?

I'll take her to Antalya for the surgery.

Hope she gets well soon.

Thank you, brother.

Where is Mr. Demir?

What's wrong Osman?

I said where is he.

He went to the police station, about Deniz.

When will he be back?

I don't know.

Hatice!

Can you push my swing, sister?

Nesibe go check the fire.

You tell her we're taking her for the surgery.

Or that she is going to stay at her uncle's place...

Whatever, just make up some story.

We'll do something.

Put the shovel and pickaxe I just bought, in the trunk.

I had a thick winter coat, where is it?

Sister, push me harder...

I can't Necibe, I'm so tired.

Make me fly high!

I don't have strength, darling. I don't...

Are you going to die sister?

Do you have a spare manure bag?

Let me bring it.

Thank God your uncle will let you stay in his house.

Nobody else would do it.

What uncle would allow his niece to deliver her bastard in his house?

Listen, you won't set foot out of the house once you get there, okay?

Pray to God, pray for, whoever fathered your bastard to come out and admit it.

Otherwise you are really going to suffer.

No. No.

Mer-ha-ba. (Hello)

Hello.

Dad did you hear that she spoke Turkish

I.. to want.. Istanbul.. to go..

You go to Istanbul...

No I want to go to Istanbul.

I.. to want.. Istanbul.. to go..

Dad, she wants to go to Istanbul.

Thanks.

Get your hand in.

I want to get out.

Please drop me off.

This is crazy what you're doing...

Crazy.

I don't want to die... Please drop me off!

If you need to go to the toilet, go now.

No, I don't.

Yes brother?

We can't open the trunk. Can you take a look?

Let me have a look.

Go get some fresh air.

I don't want to. I'm fine like this.

What did you do?

It's no good. We have to drill it...

Leave it then. This is a borrowed car.

Stop... Stop...

How strange these foreigners are, don't you think dad?

What happened dad?

Nothing.

I think it's boiled over.

Come on, dad.

What are you doing girl, you'll fall!

Shall I get you something, are you hungry?

No... I'm not hungry.

No way. You'll take your medicine. Go wash your face and let's eat.

God damn it! Don't just go opening like the sultan's seal!

Thank you.

You are welcome dad.

Let's have some soup first dad.

OK...

Let's sit outside dad. It's suffocating inside.

Oh, I forgot my medications...

You wait here I'll bring them.

You should drink clean water.

Thank you, dad.

I can't drink it now dad. My mouth tastes rusty.

The medications taste rusty. Even water tastes bitter to me.

I feel so anxious. Let me take a little walk dad, is that ok?

As you wish.

We'll be here for 15 minutes. Nobody go too far away.

Dad there is a funny smell in the car.

I don't smell anything.

Maybe it's just me.

Does it hurt?

Hurt? It's throbbing with pain.

Take one of my pills if you like.

No, they're yours.

Dad, does mum get sick to her stomach like me?

Take it.

Thanks, dad.

How slow the guy is driving...

Your car's inspection sticker's expired. We have to impound the car.

What do you mean? I just got vehicle inspected.

It's expired. You can't have it on the road that way.

It received a fine yesterday for the same reason.

Please don't do this.

Listen this is my daughter, she's going to have surgery...

I have to take her to Konya for the operation.

If you take the car what will I do?

She's getting worse on the way.

They do this surgery in Fethiye.. Ohh no.. They don't do this surgery in Fethiye..

I swear... I swear on God.

Hope she gets well. You better talk to the head officer.

Thank you so much.

All the best to you.

You get your vehicle inspection. Otherwise you'll get in trouble.

Yes sir.

Dad, your hand..

Dad, your hand is bleeding...

Dad hold on, let me change with a clean cloth...

Ayse!

Were you sleeping?

No dad it's just that my eyes are hurting.

Honestly, I would have fallen asleep if you hadn't call my name.

What's wrong?

My stomach is burning.

I had a dream, Dad...

What was it?

In my dream, my little sibling was dead.

Which one?

The baby in my mum's belly.

It was a boy.

He looked like you.

Mum handed out the baby to me saying "let it be yours".

As soon as I took the baby in my arms, he started to speak.

He said "I am going to die, sister" and he just died.

I just cried and cried so much that I was parched with thirst.

They give me water but the strange thing is..

I didn't know the person giving water to me.

I knew him and didn't know him at the same time.

He was someone very close. Yet he wouldn't show his face.

I drank the water given to me.

But the water is not water; it's not air either.

It is water and it's not.

Then I woke up.

It was a boy huh?

It was a boy dad. So small, a tiny little thing...

He was a handsome boy.

Daddy, you used to sing me a folk song when I was little, do you remember?

Which one?

It was a song called "my Ayse"... That one..

Would you sing it for me?

Where did you come up with this now?

Please dad.

The sheep comes slowly

Getting all muddy

Little Ayse walks to the fountain

Dragging her feet lightly.

O my Ayse, fair Ayse

The mountaintops are misty, Ayse

What's wrong, Dad?

Dad!

Dad...

Dad...

Dad...

Dad...

Dad...

Dad...

Thank you my daughter.

Don't fall asleep, I need you to keep me awake...

Ayse, my daughter, my little one, wake up...

Come on wake up Ayse. Then I will fall asleep too.

I feel so sleepy dad.

Ayse come on my little one, wake up and wipe your side of the window.

I can't see it. Otherwise we'll have an accident.

Dad stop!

Come out have some fresh air.

Breathe fresh air.. Breathe..

There is no fresh air dad. I can't breathe.

Let me get you some water.

How is your finger dad? Has it stop throbbing?

Never mind about my finger now, how are you?

Better.

Let's stop in the first gas station and

I will get lots of yoghurt and yoghurt drink for you.

And I'll take you to the hospital in the first town

we arrive in and have them check you thoroughly.

We'll have a doctor see your finger too, won't we dad? See, it's swollen.

Just throw up my daughter, it'll clean your stomach.

Eat this right now.

Clean the bowl well, my little one, don't leave anything behind.

Excuse me friend.

How far is the closest nearby town?

Where are you heading to?

To Konya.

If roads are clear it takes one and a half to two hours.

But if it is snowy then it will take two to two and a half.

The road ahead gets lots of snow this time of year.

A boat sank in the Aegean Sea!

The coast guard reported that the 25 year-old...

...Deniz Gokce, has been missing for the past week.

5 bodies have recovered so far and the police...

...are not hopeful for the remaining passengers.

A major effort has been launched against criminal...

...organizations providing supplies to illegal refugees.

Deniz!

You have created the whole world,

the plants, the insects, the sheep...

...the mountains and the plains, the heavens,

You have created each and every thing.

How hard is this for you?

Oh God spare my child.

Spare my little one.

You know I haven't been fasting lately.

You know I have some health problems.

Yet I will start fasting no matter what.

I will even fast the days I didn't for redemption.

You know I've missed Friday prayers while earning the bread for my kids.

From this day onwards I won't miss Friday prayers.

I won't hit my wife even..

..when she drives me nuts.

To nobody, I swear to nobody...

Oh Lord everything is open to you, it's not that I am bargaining...

My Lord...

Please give her back to me.

Spare my little one.

Deniz... Deniz what shall I do now?

The cruel father: "I do not regret"

What's the difference between them?

Well, I don't know the difference.

They just tell us to sell this one for 35 and that one for 60. So that's what we do.

Otherwise one is no better than the other.

We will fix a tire not a donkey.

My little one. My Ayse.

Put this on too!

It looks lovely on you, lovely on my Ayse.

Thank you, daddy. Thank you.

We have short way to go until the town. I have asked people.

We'll get to the hospital right away.

Have this yoghurt-drink again my dear. See it'll do you good.

I don't know what they did in the hospital to me...

...but I just can't return to normal, dad.

The medications taste terrible too, I'd rather die.

It's a good thing, we took this trip, dad.

Don't cry dad!

No, I'm not crying... What made you think that?

It'll grow up with my sibling.

Who will grow?

With my brother...

Stop dad!

Allah, Allah!

Ayse... Come up here my daughter, push the accelerator.

The gear is jammed. Come on my girl...

If it's a boy, we'll name him after you, right dad?

Who knows where the Germans are now.

Who knows what they are doing.

I wonder if they have children.

Oh brother... Oh...

Don't go to sleep!

Ayse!

Wake up my daughter. Help me with this. The gear's jammed again.

Ayse!

Hang on my daughter.

Hang on Ayse.

I could put up with embarrassment and mockery...

...but what could you do?

Everybody would...

Your bastard child...

My Ayse hang on, we are almost there.

We'll give them both the same name.

They'll grow up as siblings together.

Yes, why not?

They'll grow up as siblings together...

They'll grow up as siblings...

Make me fly daddy!

Make me fly daddy!

Make me fly daddy!

My Ayse!

It's OK Ayse!

Don't worry my little one! It's OK my Ayse!

O my Ayse, my fair Ayse...

The mountaintops are misty, my Ayse.
