00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:43,240
This is it:

4
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:45,440
our cosmos,

5
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:47,920
our world,

6
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,040
our country,

7
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:54,440
our glorious land.

8
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,040
A place where language
makes no difference.

9
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,520
The silent cry of eternity
within us.

10
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,560
Where everything
begins and ends.

11
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:10,840
May darkness come.

12
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:09,680
Thank you.

13
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,640
You were simply incredible.

14
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,600
People,
the Governor was in the audience.

15
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,440
Please stay,
we'd like a joint photo.

16
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:24,800
Thank you.

17
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:30,520
The play was amazing.

18
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:34,720
Professor?
There you are.

19
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:37,720
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.

20
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,040
We're taking a group photo.
Where's Derya?

21
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,880
- Congratulations.
- Thanks a lot.

22
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,000
- Mr. Aziz.
- Yes?

23
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,560
The play was magnificent.
Thank you so much.

24
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:15,560
Thank you.

25
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,240
- My husband and I were very moved.
- Thank you.

26
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,080
What important observations
you made.

27
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:22,760
People are hungry for that.

28
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,320
- They're tired of shallow TV series.
- Fikret?

29
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:27,240
Yes.

30
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:28,840
Have you met Fikret Kocabey,

31
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,240
a university colleague
and playwright himself.

32
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,200
He specializes in societal
and physical hunger.

33
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,360
- I'll check on Derya. Good evening.
- Good evening.

34
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,480
- You're coming to Beyzade, right?
- Sure.

35
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,280
Don't run away now.

36
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,440
Mr. Aziz, sorry,
excuse me.

37
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,960
I've been waiting for this opportunity.
May I have a moment of your time?

38
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,560
Ms. Derya, the Governor
is waiting for you for the photo.

39
00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,440
It'll only take
five minutes.

40
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,840
He'd be delighted
if you came out.

41
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,520
BERLIN AS
ANKARA

42
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,320
<i>Security forces have responded</i>
<i>to terrorist attacks</i>

43
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,920

<i>the country's stability.</i>

44

<i>Clashes continue</i>

45
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,120
<i>while protests persist in major cities.</i>

46
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,560
Where in Ayrancı
are you headed?

47
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,080
- Do you know Güvenlik Street?
- I do.

48
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,480
We'll get out
at the Melis bakery.

49
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,800
Excuse me,
could you turn down the radio?

50
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,720
- It's already quiet.
- Then turn it off.

51
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:50,360
OK.

52
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:56,920
What's up?

53
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:58,880
Nothing.

54
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,560
You sure?
I sense something.

55
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,120
He's late
to the performance,

56
00:06:05,280 --> 00:06:08,440
need an hour to sit down
with his 50 people,

57
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,400
and doesn't even mute his phone.
It's unfathomable.

58
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,480
His phone rang three times.
Three times.

59
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,560
You think he came for the play?
He just wanted pics.

60
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:19,920
I'm fed up.

61
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:24,520
Yavuz, Nisa, Serkan were all looking
for me. For God's sake.

62
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:30,400
Look at me.

63
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:32,960
You were great.

64
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:37,520
Really. You nailed the rhythm,
just like in rehearsal. It was great.

65
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:41,040
I don't know. I still think
the second act starts too slowly.

66
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,240
It does.
But that's good.

67
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:51,680
Aren't you in bed yet?

68
00:06:51,840 --> 00:06:53,680
Today on
"Mom's Stupid Questions."

69
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,080
If you're awake,
you could've come to the premiere.

70
00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:58,480
I dunno.

71
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:05,720
Your Mom and Dad have put on something
the whole town wants to see.

72
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:07,840
Doesn't that
whet your curiosity?

73
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,800
Then act out
a summary of it for me.

74
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:12,680
Please.
Come on.

75
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:14,760
This kid is killing me.
Whose is she?

76
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,400
The Governor's daughter?

77
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,840
They all pinch my cheeks and say,
"Boy, has she grown up."

78
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,000
As if I weren't
even there.

79
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,440
- Who does that? Your hair is greasy.
- Everyone: Fikret, Nisa...

80
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,840
- It's traumatic.
- Love is hard to take.

81
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,920
Three-hour plays
are hard to take.

82
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,640
Aziz,
did you hear that?

83
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,880
I just say the lines
your dad writes.

84
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,040
An hour would do.
You're not saving the world.

85
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:44,960
Of course we are.

86
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,200
- Are you kidding?
- No.

87
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,000
You think you're saving the world
with theater?

88
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:52,280
I do.

89
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:55,200
No?

90
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:57,160
Go to your room.

91
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,840
- Leave us alone.
- Love you too, Dad.

92
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,360
- Cheers.
- To both of us.

93
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:12,720
By the way,

94
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,600
a woman approached me
after the play.

95
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:17,320
What woman?

96
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,360
An attractive woman in her 50s,
smartly dressed.

97
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,360
Blonde, but fake.

98
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,840
She wanted to congratulate you,
but couldn't find you.

99
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:27,800
Yeah.

100
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,320
She's an agent in Istanbul
for TV series.

101
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,280
Call her
if you're in the area.

102
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:38,720
Everyone's an agent
nowadays.

103
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,200
We should become agents, too.
They earn way more than us.

104
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,840
She came from Istanbul just to see you.
Seemed polite.

105
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,840
Sure. Politeness is a must
for the pimps of our industry.

106
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,040
What does that make
you actors?

107
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,080
- I'm taking a shower.
- May I join?

108
00:08:57,680 --> 00:08:59,520
We'll see
if that can be arranged.

109
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:01,680
Call my agent.

110
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,640
<i>No to war.</i>

111
00:09:57,560 --> 00:09:59,040
GOD HELP

112
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:10,680
Is anyone else coming?

113
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,720
They're all at the demo.

114
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,040
- And why aren't you?
- Can we go?

115
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:18,560
Well,
they're there.

116
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:20,720
So we can go?

117
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:21,960
I don't know.

118
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:24,040
What can I say?

119
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,000
You can leave if you want.
This is a university.

120
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:31,040
I'm going.

121
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:35,920
Well...

122
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:39,760
And you all?

123
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,800
We're...
here for the course.

124
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:44,920
Guys,

125
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,160
if you haven't seen
the State's theater,

126
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,800
then I can tell you nothing
about dramaturgy.

127
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,600
Do not miss this.

128
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,520
- With your permission, I'll go, too.
- Go ahead.

129
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:57,480
See you guys.

130
00:10:58,440 --> 00:10:59,320
Hurry.

131
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:02,480
And?

132
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:04,520
Anyone else?

133
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:07,960
I'd prefer
to stay here.

134
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:12,480
- Me, too.
- We're here to learn.

135
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:14,880
To learn.

136
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:32,440
What now?

137
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:34,960
We're waiting.

138
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:36,520
For what?

139
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:40,080
Godot.

140
00:11:45,680 --> 00:11:46,640
Brother?

141
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:48,880
Fikret, come in.

142
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:52,720
How was it at
Beyzade?

143
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,480
Fill me in
on the gossip.

144
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:56,200
Brother.

145
00:11:56,680 --> 00:11:57,680
What's up?

146
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:00,120
So you haven't heard.

147
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:02,880
What?

148
00:12:04,560 --> 00:12:06,920
Devin, Doğa,
Olgay, Deniz and Nilsu

149
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,840
go to a café
to celebrate their friend's birthday.

150
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:15,800
The following is known about the order
in which they visit the café:

151
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,480
Nilsu didn't arrive first.

152
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,760
Olgay arrived
shortly before Deniz...

153
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,800
- Hello.
- Hello.

154
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,400
- Pelin, how are you?
- Well...

155
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,120
- Can I ask you something?
- Go ahead.

156
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,920
- Can I get a picture of us?
- Dude, unbelievable.

157
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:47,960
- Sure.
- My dad's a fan.

158
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,040
- Tell him I say hi.
- Take it, dude.

159
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:52,120
Ugh.

160
00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:58,840
Embarrassing.

161
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,920
- So you want a pizza?
- We're not hungry.

162
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:06,320
Who's we?

163
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:09,240
Wait, wait.

164
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,480
What is this,
a mosque?

165
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:15,880
Probably visitors.

166
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,600
- What's going on?
- Don't ask. The whole gang is here.

167
00:13:25,680 --> 00:13:26,960
Evening, friends.

168
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,480
Nice to see you guys.

169
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,680
- Welcome, Derya. How are you?
- Fine, but...

170
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,160
Sorry for coming unannounced.

171
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,760
We brought a little pizza.
Are you hungry?

172
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,080
- We're fine. Thank you.
- I'll take a bite.

173
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,280
Should I warm up
the hash browns?

174
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:54,000
- You're tired from work. I'll do it.
- No, I'm not. But what's going on?

175
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,760
Everyone got one:
Saliha, Gamze, Cüneyt...

176
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,600
I'm telling you:
It's systematic.

177
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,440
- That's obvious.
- It's all systematic.

178
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:06,400
Guys,
what's going on?

179
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:07,920
Can someone explain?

180
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,800
They've suspended
all of us.

181
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:15,480
Our courses have been canceled,

182
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,760
enrollment shut down and
contracts terminated.

183
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:24,960
"... because you only gave six
out of twelve hours of class..."

184
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,400
"Due to dismissive and insulting remarks
that represent

185
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,680
an attack
on personal rights."

186
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,560
We think it's our stance on the war,
but we're not sure.

187
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,760
I spoke to Kadriye.
Tomorrow, we'll confront the Rector.

188
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:41,440
- Kadriye?
- Law.

189
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,400
- The law professor and Maoist.
- What's the Rector going to do?

190
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,160
- What do you mean?
- She signed the letter herself.

191
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:53,720
So sweet.

192
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,200
She sure has grown up.

193
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:17,960
What time is it?

194
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:19,320
Almost 3:00.

195
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:22,880
Put that away.

196
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:26,880
We're getting organized.

197
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:29,360
Sleep's out of the question.

198
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,080
You need sleep.
Tomorrow will be busy.

199
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,520
- Please, Derya, it's the tension.
- You think I don't understand?

200
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,880
What do we always say?
Don't fear problems, fear fear itself.

201
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:49,160
Tomorrow
is a new day.

202
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,480
That talk
got us into this.

203
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,680
- Enjoy your shift, Hikmet.
- You too, Ms. Derya.

204
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,760
- Derya.
- I'm coming, I just need a coffee.

205
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,320
- Derya, could you take a look?
- OK, OK.

206
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,200
WRONG PASSWORD

207
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:26,040
Welcome, Derya.

208
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:31,200
- We're all meeting.
- I'm coming, but need coffee. My God.

209
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:34,280
We'll be waiting.

210
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,160
Brother, we're ready.

211
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:47,800
OK.

212
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,520
Derya's here,
we can get started.

213
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,520
People,
I have some unpleasant news.

214
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,560
They're deliberately
keeping us waiting.

215
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,040
It's been half an hour,
this is unacceptable.

216
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:22,800
- Alright, go in.
- Come on.

217
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,080
We got a warning
from above.

218
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:31,760
We're suspending the play.

219
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:34,720
- Excuse me?
- Temporarily.

220
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:36,520
Aziz's play?

221
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,600
We're removing it from
the repertoire for now.

222
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:40,840
Why?

223
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,040
Does Aziz know?

224
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:46,440
We told him,
didn't we?

225
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:48,520
We must have.

226
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,000
Do you know the situation
you're putting your colleagues in?

227
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,440
Presenting them with
a fait accompli?

228
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,760
Ms. Kadriye,
of course I know all that.

229
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,960
As I've said,
I had nothing to do with those letters.

230
00:19:01,120 --> 00:19:04,240
Guys, rest assured,
we've tried everything.

231
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:09,240
Under the circumstances, we'll have to
suspend the play for a while.

232
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,800
As of Tuesday, we'll be presenting
"Leila and Majnun" again.

233
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:14,600
Are you kidding me?

234
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:17,360
Ms. Zeynep.

235
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:21,000
What "circumstances"
are you referring to?

236
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:22,320
Could you enlighten us?

237
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,960
I mean
the current political situation.

238
00:19:26,360 --> 00:19:27,320
Meaning?

239
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,920
- It's a sensitive time
- Explain yourself.

240
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,280
Higher Education or the Interior
Ministry are both possible.

241
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,640
Even so,
shouldn't you be protecting us?

242
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,120
Your colleagues
have families to feed.

243
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,520
You have a responsibility
to them.

244
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,720
Who says I'm not protecting them?
Please refrain from such allegations.

245
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:49,520
- Allegations?
- Allegations.

246
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,760
The allegations being made
are those in the letters.

247
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,680
You can't deprive people of their jobs
and standing in the community.

248
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,320
The shows are already
sold out.

249
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,960
- This is shameful, don't do it.
- There was a standing ovation.

250
00:20:04,120 --> 00:20:07,800
You're right, Sema,
but this is out of our hands.

251
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,080
We won't accept this.
It needs to be discussed first.

252
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,120
- I've already done so.
- Then do it again.

253
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:16,800
As you wish,
Derya.

254
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,440
Pardon me?
What was that?

255
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,280
You're forcing us
to take the matter to court.

256
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,640
Let's not upset
each other.

257
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,400
Our country is already fighting for its
life against the rest of the world.

258
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,880
The rest of the world
or the colors of the rainbow?

259
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:33,720
- Excuse me?
- It's not hard:

260
00:20:34,360 --> 00:20:36,680
- red, orange, yellow, green, blue...
- Listen.

261
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:42,080
If you want to sue me, the university,
or our state, go ahead.

262
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:46,000
This is absolute nonsense.
What are we even doing here.

263
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,120
We don't deserve this.

264
00:20:58,600 --> 00:20:59,920
You know that,
right?

265
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,240
If you'd graced us with your presence
for the photo,

266
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,080
Derya, things would be easier now.

267
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:08,720
I'll leave it at that.

268
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:10,160
Damn.

269
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,520
Are you canceling the play
over a photo?

270
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,200
- I didn't say that.
- What didn't you say?

271
00:21:15,360 --> 00:21:18,560
That the play was canceled
because you didn't do a photo.

272
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:19,840
Then what did you say?

273
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,680
That things would be easier.
That's all.

274
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,560
Don't bullshit me.

275
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,240
My regards to the Governor,
his cronies, and his telephone.

276
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,120
Derya, watch your words...

277
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,120
I am watching
what I'm saying.

278
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:37,640
Our work's being trampled on,
so who's going too far?

279
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,920
We're explaining the situation
in a friendly manner.

280
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,880
We could've sent a text, for God's sake.

281
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,240
We would've saved ourselves
this whole discussion.

282
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,960
Right. How generous.
We're so grateful.

283
00:21:50,120 --> 00:21:52,920
- Derya, it's fine.
- No, it's far from fine.

284
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,720
It's not every day you get
such special treatment.

285
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:57,320
Derya is right...

286
00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:58,920
Enough is enough!

287
00:21:59,920 --> 00:22:03,440
From Tuesday on,
we're doing "Leila and Majnun."

288
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,240
Consider carefully
where you stand.

289
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:12,880
Right.

290
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,640
This meeting is over,
thank you.

291
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,360
This is you.

292
00:22:26,120 --> 00:22:27,120
That small.

293
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,080
Alright, guys.
You can go.

294
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:41,480
Unbelievable.

295
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:43,960
I've never heard
such nonsense.

296
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,760
That's just
what they want:

297
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,360
for no one to see
what they do behind closed doors.

298
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:51,840
But not with us.

299
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:01,960
<i>My lover wishes for life</i>
<i>for her beloved</i>

300
00:23:03,120 --> 00:23:06,280
<i>But one who seeks a beloved</i>
<i>for their own gain is a merchant</i>

301
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,640
<i>O Lord, do not let the strong</i>
<i>take from the weak their possessions</i>

302
00:23:12,360 --> 00:23:16,080
<i>And do not let a friend's bed</i>
<i>be shared with the enemy</i>

303
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:20,560
<i>I'm a wounded heart seeking another</i>
<i>wounded heart, not a husband</i>

304
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:24,160
<i>I ask instead to gather roses,</i>
<i>O Lord!</i>

305
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,120
I think you could
give it another go.

306
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:38,080
What do you mean?

307
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:39,760
The theater.

308
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,960
You don't have to apologize,
but at least look them...

309
00:23:43,120 --> 00:23:46,960
Aziz, if you want me to kiss ass,
we have a problem.

310
00:23:47,120 --> 00:23:51,760
I don't want you to kiss ass,
but if we're both unemployed...

311
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,080
- Do the math.
- Great. As if I didn't get it.

312
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,080
What about
the guitar lessons?

313
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,680
It's a lot of money.
We'll discuss it with her.

314
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,680
- Look where we've ended up.
- Where have we ended up?

315
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,760
My little hothead.
Always where the action is.

316
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,840
You sent your students to the demo.

317
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,320
- That has nothing to do with it.
- I defended your play.

318
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:18,640
Oh, please.

319
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,440
You should've seen his arrogance.
You want me to play Leila?

320
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:26,000
- You could've talked in private....
- Even if I did play Leila:

321
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,760
Can't you see
they have a problem with us?

322
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:30,360
They'd find something else.

323
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,720
You embarrassed him
in front of everyone, right?

324
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,680
Now's not the time
for heroics.

325
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,240
You think
I'm trying to be a hero?

326
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,440
Sometimes you do feed your ego,
yes.

327
00:24:43,120 --> 00:24:46,800
- Get the door, for God's sake.
- I'm the only one who'll tell you that.

328
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,000
Mr. Zülfikar, come in.

329
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:58,880
Evening, Mr. Zülfikar, welcome.

330
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:00,520
Do come in.

331
00:25:05,120 --> 00:25:06,160
This way.

332
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,440
I don't want
to beat around the bush.

333
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:22,280
The police were here today and searched
the whole building, including our place.

334
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:28,720
They asked who comes and goes,
as well as who you associate with.

335
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,120
- And?
- And nothing.

336
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,080
They say the place is full of
traitors and terrorists.

337
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,680
They said to let them know
if we see anything.

338
00:25:44,360 --> 00:25:48,360
Mr. Zülfikar, I hear you,
but we know nothing about...

339
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,280
Kids,
you know I love you.

340
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,160
We've been living together for years.
Right?

341
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,880
But I want peace
in my building.

342
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:05,640
It wasn't nice how the police
questioned neighbors today.

343
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,880
We're not used to it.

344
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,760
It's our duty to maintain the peace,
right?

345
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,960
I'm here
to remind you of that.

346
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:20,440
Mr. Zülfikar, you act as if
we've done something wrong.

347
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:22,960
I can't judge that,
Derya.

348
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,480
I've said my piece,
the rest is up to you.

349
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:30,400
Now I'll be off.

350
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:45,040
Mr. Zülfikar, no one has taken care of
the mold in the bathroom.

351
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:46,560
Aziz,

352
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:51,320
I don't want to have to justify myself
to the police again.

353
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:03,320
Now they're coming to our front door.
What is this?

354
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:08,200
Ezgi could've opened the door.
They could've scared her.

355
00:27:08,360 --> 00:27:10,800
Yeah,
we'll have to explain it to her.

356
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:18,680
Am I losing my mind?

357
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,280
- Could you come here?
- What's up?

358
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:26,520
Come here.

359
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,880
Those men have been
hanging around for a while.

360
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,200
- So?
- Are they watching us?

361
00:27:37,360 --> 00:27:38,520
Nonsense.

362
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:40,480
Look, look...

363
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,520
Don't be paranoid.
You're making me paranoid.

364
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,400
But he's looking up here,
Aziz.

365
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,640
- Who's looking up here?
- Ezgi, no...

366
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,000
Your dad thought
he saw a friend.

367
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,520
- How was your lesson?
- Good, fine.

368
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:58,640
It sounded good. So are you happy
with her or should I give her hell?

369
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:00,520
We're making progress.

370
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:04,200
If she practices the etudes in her
free time, she'll be on her way.

371
00:28:04,360 --> 00:28:05,680
- Right, Ezgi?
- Yes.

372
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:07,960
- Thank you.
- Thank you.

373
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:10,440
I'll see you out.

374
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,360
- See you next Friday. Right, Ezgi?
- Yes, goodbye.

375
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,440
- Good night.
- Good night.

376
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:30,840
You have a run.

377
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:32,000
Oh, no.

378
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:42,480
What's up, Fikret?

379
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,320
Slow down. What is it?

380
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:47,960
What?

381
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:49,680
When?

382
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,240
You're in the park. OK.

383
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:58,720
Then I'm on my way.

384
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,720
- On your way to where?
- They searched our offices.

385
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:04,600
- No way.
- There were arrests.

386
00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:07,640
So,

387
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,040
we've tried everything.

388
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,360
But given the current
economic circumstances,

389
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:18,520
we can only suspend your loan repayments
for three months.

390
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,680
- That's better than nothing, right?
- Yes, absolutely.

391
00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,560
After that, we'll need to increase
the interest rate.

392
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:27,560
By how much?

393
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:29,320
- Nineteen percent.
- Nineteen percent?

394
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,000
Nineteen percent, yes.

395
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:33,320
Nineteen percent, Ms. Nesrin?

396
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,080
I did what I could.

397
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,560
Bitter pills need swallowing,
right?

398
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:48,800
Absolutely.

399
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,280
Excuse me, Ms. Derya,
maybe it's inappropriate...

400
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,600
Where have I seen you?
In a TV series?

401
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:04,920
Yeah, before all TV channels
became State-controlled.

402
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:09,000
Way back when interest rates
weren't shamefully exorbitant.

403
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:14,720
Alright. So,

404
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,080
is there anything else
I can do for you?

405
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:20,760
What do you mean by
"else?"

406
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:26,240
We have no ties
to illegal organizations.

407
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:33,080
And no one gave us
any instructions.

408
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:38,560
Everyone has the right to live in peace
and demand just that.

409
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,960
That's why we're here
and will continue to be here.

410
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:49,080
No one has the right
to restrict our civil rights.

411
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,680
It is our democratic right
to live equally in this society,

412
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,680
and to be treated humanely.

413
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:02,720
The citizens of this country

414
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:07,200
are being systematically deprived
of their jobs

415
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,560
and of their standing
in the community.

416
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:14,720
These people have integrity
and legitimate claims.

417
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:20,360
Our goal is to live as free as a tree,
as communally as a forest, and in peace.

418
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:23,640
WE WANT
OUR JOBS BACK

419
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:30,440
Shoulder to shoulder, we will defend
our right to freedom, justice and peace.

420
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,320
No one will deprive us
of our rights.

421
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,320
Rights! Law! Justice!

422
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:10,480
Enjoy your shift,
Hikmet.

423
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:11,640
Ms. Derya.

424
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:16,360
What's up,
Brother Hikmet?

425
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,800
Well,
how should I put this?

426
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:25,560
What is it?

427
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:35,800
"Your resignation
has been accepted."

428
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:39,160
Who's this from?

429
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:41,680
They're inside rehearsing.

430
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:43,520
So?

431
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:46,080
I was told
not to let you in.

432
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:47,400
Excuse me?

433
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:51,680
I was surprised, too.
I just do what I'm told.

434
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:53,560
Whose decision was this?

435
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:55,840
Brother Hikmet.

436
00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,360
You didn't hear this from me,
but it was Ms. Zeynep.

437
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:04,840
Ms. Derya.

438
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:07,000
Where are you?

439
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,520
You're the brave one,
the one with the will.

440
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:10,840
You. You. You.

441
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,160
The one who should be here
is you.

442
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:14,480
You. You. You.

443
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,880
- But where are you?
- Where are you?

444
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:22,480
I'm here, Sema.

445
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:26,920
Nice.

446
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:31,680
Well done, everyone.

447
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:37,960
Carry on.

448
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,200
HAMBURG AS
ISTANBUL

449
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:06,960
- Is she home?
- She is.

450
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,040
Maybe she didn't hear it.
Try again.

451
00:34:15,720 --> 00:34:17,080
- My dears.
- Hello.

452
00:34:17,240 --> 00:34:18,720
Welcome.

453
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:20,960
My love.
Boy, has she grown.

454
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:25,160
Welcome.

455
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,400
I've been waiting.

456
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,080
Don't take off your shoes.
Don't.

457
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:33,200
- So glad to see you.
- My love. Welcome.

458
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,040
Straight to the living room.
Come in.

459
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:40,440
I made tea and baked a cake.
Everything is ready.

460
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:41,760
So much effort?

461
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:45,760
You're sleeping in my room
and Ezgi in the guest room.

462
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,120
- And you?
- I'll sleep here.

463
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,560
- No way.
- Yes, way.

464
00:34:51,720 --> 00:34:54,800
I always fall asleep
watching TV anyway.

465
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:56,640
End of discussion.

466
00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:58,720
This is my room?

467
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:01,680
Yes, dear.

468
00:35:06,240 --> 00:35:08,200
The pizza in Ankara
is better.

469
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,720
- Well, this one cost more.
- Yeah, welcome to Istanbul.

470
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:15,640
I'm going to my room
to talk to Pelin.

471
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,880
- Don't forget your plate.
- Who's Pelin?

472
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,920
A friend in Ankara.
I'll clear the table.

473
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,600
I cooked delicious leeks.
They'll go bad.

474
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,320
We'll eat them tomorrow.
No worries.

475
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,720
We want a smooth transition for Ezgi.
Not every day will be like this.

476
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:35,480
It shouldn't be. She should eat properly.
That's important at her age.

477
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,640
- Are you talking about me?
- She has ears like a lynx.

478
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:42,480
Come here, sweetheart.
Come on.

479
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:51,920
- That's unnecessary.
- Thanks, Grandma.

480
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,200
Stay out of it.
It's between us.

481
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:58,920
You're a young woman now
and can buy your own lemonade.

482
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,080
You don't have to depend on others.
Do you have someone?

483
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:05,040
What do you mean?

484
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,880
- Grandma...
- Someone you love.

485
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,320
- Do you have WiFi?
- What?

486
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,680
- Internet.
- Oh, I do on my phone.

487
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:17,160
Here, take mine.

488
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:21,200
A lovely age.

489
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:23,480
Right.
You want some coffee?

490
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,440
Sure. On the shelf to the right.
A little sweet.

491
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,720
- You?
- Yeah, I'll take it sweet, too.

492
00:36:32,240 --> 00:36:35,120
What's the plan?
What can I do for you?

493
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,320
You took us in.
That's all we need.

494
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:41,280
Your politeness is hurtful.
This is your home.

495
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,680
And it's terrible being alone
all the time.

496
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,960
So tell me:
What do we do now?

497
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:55,120
Well, the university filed a lawsuit.
We've filed a counterclaim.

498
00:36:55,720 --> 00:36:59,080
- The other case is criminal.
- Criminal?

499
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:03,280
The prosecutor wants a statement.
It seems a student reported me.

500
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:07,200
They went through my social media
and added posts to my file.

501
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,320
The public prosecutor's office
is demanding prison time

502
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:12,120
for insulting the President.

503
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:14,440
It could be
more than four years in prison.

504
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:17,120
Did you insult anyone?

505
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:20,080
I know the difference
between criticism and insults.

506
00:37:20,240 --> 00:37:22,680
I didn't insult anyone.
They're just intimidating us.

507
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:24,080
How can we be sure?

508
00:37:24,240 --> 00:37:27,880
Is there anything we can be sure of
these days?

509
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,040
When's the hearing?

510
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,120
I don't know.
We're waiting.

511
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,200
Do you believe in this justice?
What are you expecting?

512
00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:37,520
What can I do?
The lawyers are on it.

513
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:39,720
The lawyers,
but what are you doing?

514
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,040
I'm sending out applications.

515
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:43,880
Where to?

516
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:48,760
Well, private universities.
I'm also doing translations, etc.

517
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:53,200
- And you, Derya?
- I want to work, too.

518
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,080
- Meaning?
- Mom?

519
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:59,280
So sensitive.
Aren't I allowed to ask?

520
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:03,080
I'm looking for work and a school
for Ezgi. We're doing our best.

521
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,920
When things are clearer,
we'll return to Ankara.

522
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:09,400
That's not what I meant,
for goodness' sake.

523
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,880
You've misunderstood me,
Mom.

524
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,480
Look,
I'm very happy that you're here.

525
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:17,840
I'm here for you
financially and emotionally.

526
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:19,360
Thank you.

527
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:24,000
And I'll help Ezgi
prepare for her exams.

528
00:38:25,720 --> 00:38:27,560
- So don't worry...
- Oh, the coffee.

529
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:33,720
No worries.

530
00:38:34,720 --> 00:38:37,360
Maybe we shouldn't drink coffee
this late, anyway.

531
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:54,160
Hey, there.

532
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:00,720
Sweetie.

533
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:03,360
It'll all be fine.

534
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:09,280
Get up.

535
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:13,400
Get up
or I'll put you in the oven,

536
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,080
- bake and eat you.
- Let go.

537
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:23,040
It's only temporary.

538
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,280
- Here, we part ways.
- Shouldn't we come in?

539
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,720
- You wanna sit next to me in class?
- Can you find your room?

540
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:38,240
Yes, and don't pick me up.
I'll make it home.

541
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:39,680
- You got your sandwich?
- Sure.

542
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:42,640
- Need anything else?
- Please just leave.

543
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:46,760
Fine.

544
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:48,960
Mom.

545
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,000
- Bye.
- Good luck.

546
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:58,000
The conservatory might be better.
She's interested in music and art.

547
00:39:58,160 --> 00:39:59,320
Conservatory?

548
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:02,080
- She'll never be a professional musician.
- Excuse me?

549
00:40:02,240 --> 00:40:04,960
If she were a virtuoso,
they would've told us.

550
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:07,760
So she should quit
if she's not a virtuoso?

551
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:09,440
You're ridiculous sometimes.

552
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:11,440
- Hello.
- Hello.

553
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,840
We're boycotting our canteen
and collecting signatures.

554
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,440
We don't accept the price increases
and poor food quality.

555
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:22,600
So we're bringing our own food
and sharing it at recess.

556
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:28,000
But the principal intervened,
arguing we might hide drugs in the food.

557
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:32,080
We're exercising our democratic rights
by collecting signatures.

558
00:40:32,240 --> 00:40:34,040
- Would you sign?
- Sure.

559
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:36,160
Was that a joke?

560
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:37,880
A joke?

561
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:41,760
- Wonderful.
- Thanks.

562
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:45,280
Did she say drugs?

563
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:57,280
There.

564
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,200
They last
for a couple years.

565
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:02,000
When will the new model
be available?

566
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,200
They say spring,
but we won't get them...

567
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:09,440
until summer. But forget
that tablet, I'll give you a laptop...

568
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:12,200
- No, no. I'll think it over.
- Fine.

569
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:14,160
- Have a nice day.
- Likewise.

570
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,080
Wow, wow, Derya.

571
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,240
- To what do I owe the honor?
- Hello, Brother. Gimme a hug.

572
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:23,520
- Welcome.
- Thanks. How are you?

573
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:24,880
Great, thanks.

574
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:28,280
I last saw you at my sons' circumcision,
right?

575
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,160
Well, you know:
Ankara, university, work...

576
00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:32,480
Right.

577
00:41:33,240 --> 00:41:34,560
Have a seat.

578
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:38,160
Șükrü?
Clean the place up.

579
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:47,360
Sorry it's a bit messy.

580
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:51,840
Well, then.
Talk to me.

581
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:57,760
- You know we moved to Istanbul?
- I do. I was wondering when you'd call.

582
00:41:57,920 --> 00:41:59,840
We've come here instead.
How's Gülin?

583
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:01,960
Good, thank God.

584
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,320
- And the children?
- Same.

585
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:06,280
We've missed you all.

586
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:09,360
- So where's Ezgi?
- She's at school.

587
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,360
In the afternoon,
she studies with Aziz's mother.

588
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:15,640
- For high school exams?
- Yeah. Next time, we'll bring her.

589
00:42:16,720 --> 00:42:17,640
I hope so.

590
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:21,840
We actually came
to ask you something.

591
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:23,280
- Do you smoke?
- Thanks, I quit.

592
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,360
- I'm listening.
- Then straight to the point:

593
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,280
You know our property
by Mount Ida?

594
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:34,880
Let's sell it.

595
00:42:37,240 --> 00:42:38,920
- Reason?
- Excuse me?

596
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:44,000
- Why do you want to sell it?
- We're in trouble.

597
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:46,760
We need money,
simple as that.

598
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:53,280
- Maybe you heard we lost our jobs.
- Yes, I heard that.

599
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,520
And the apartment?
Your furniture?

600
00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:00,360
In storage.
We're staying with my mother.

601
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:05,000
Derya, such things shouldn't be decided
off the cuff.

602
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:09,800
The municipality there is working
like crazy to build a tunnel.

603
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,560
That'll increase the value,
so we should wait a bit longer.

604
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:19,000
- What?
- Nothing.

605
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:25,040
Just wondering if you'd have come
if it weren't for the property.

606
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:30,680
You know, we're in financial trouble
and wanted to ask you for help.

607
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:31,960
Sure, we'll help.

608
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:37,600
But it's not a spontaneous decision.
I'm off to Friday prayers. OK?

609
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:39,960
Aziz,
come to the mosque.

610
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:43,800
Go on.
I'll stay here.

611
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,000
Derya,
keep an eye on the store.

612
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,080
- Coming to Friday prayer?
- I'll be right there.

613
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:12,920
So you're unemployed?

614
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:15,680
I'm applying for jobs.

615
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,400
I'm also working
on a few translations.

616
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:21,160
Translations?

617
00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:24,480
Can you live
off of them?

618
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:35,160
Hey. Chief. Sorry, I'm wet.
How are you?

619
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:38,120
- I'm fine.
- This is my Brother-in-Law, Aziz.

620
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:40,280
This is our Chief of Police.

621
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,560
- You never miss Friday prayers.
- Nor do you.

622
00:44:43,720 --> 00:44:45,960
See you upstairs.
Goodbye.

623
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:56,720
He was looking for
a PlayStation 5 for his grandson.

624
00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:01,400
Couldn't find it anywhere, not even
in Europe. I got him one in just two days.

625
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:04,720
He's the Chief of Police
and I'm his guy.

626
00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:11,320
In the Surah I'm reading from,
Allah says:

627
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,440
"Remain steadfast
as you have been commanded,

628
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:20,480
and let those who repent with you
also be steadfast.

629
00:45:21,720 --> 00:45:24,080
Do not exceed the bounds
of justice and fairness.

630
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:28,760
Surely Allah is fully aware
of what you do."

631
00:45:30,240 --> 00:45:35,120
In the hadith I recited,
the Messenger of Allah says:

632
00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:39,280
"Surely, truthfulness
leads to righteousness,

633
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,720
and righteousness to Paradise."

634
00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:45,320
GOD NEVER MEANT
THE UNIVERSE LITERALLY.

635
00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:18,280
May Allah
accept your prayer.

636
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:25,120
Hey, Recai.

637
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,880
- Brother, may Allah accept your prayer.
- May Allah accept your prayer.

638
00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:31,720
Have you met
my brother-in-law?

639
00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:35,240
- Nice to meet you, Aziz.
- Nice to meet you, Recai.

640
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:39,000
Didn't you say
you're looking for reliable drivers?

641
00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:40,880
I still am.

642
00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:45,320
Aziz is one of the most
decent men in the world.

643
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:47,160
You can trust him completely.

644
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:51,360
Now I've done another good deed
on this blessed Friday.

645
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:56,920
Salih's relatives are my relatives.
Come by tomorrow if you like.

646
00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:00,640
Well, I'm not sure.
It's all very spontaneous.

647
00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:02,200
Write down Recai's number.

648
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:05,400
Write down his number.

649
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,320
Write me in as Taxi Recai.

650
00:47:10,240 --> 00:47:11,760
0532...

651
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:16,120
Hello, everyone.

652
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:18,480
- Hello.
- Hello.

653
00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:22,800
- What are you up to?
- We're studying.

654
00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:25,760
But the young lady
is a bit annoyed.

655
00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:27,760
That's a first.

656
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:33,080
All this memorizing: data, formulas,
names... As if the internet didn't exist.

657
00:47:33,240 --> 00:47:34,920
AI is laughing its ass off.

658
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:36,960
Watch your language.

659
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:40,600
She's right,
but we've all had to go through this.

660
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:42,880
Why should it
be different for you?

661
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:45,280
Because I wasn't born
in the Stone Age.

662
00:47:45,720 --> 00:47:49,320
Well,
tell me about your first day of school.

663
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:51,560
- It was lame.
- Lame?

664
00:47:51,720 --> 00:47:54,640
What's lame about
signature campaigns?

665
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:57,320
- They're just imbeciles.
- Did you sign, too?

666
00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:00,560
- Only not to be excluded on my first day.
- Right. OK.

667
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:03,120
So you'll need an even bigger
sandwich tomorrow.

668
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:04,160
Thanks a mill.

669
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:08,080
We talked about other schools today.
If you do well in the exams...

670
00:48:08,240 --> 00:48:12,680
Forget it, Mom. I won't get in
and they're all snobs, anyway.

671
00:48:13,240 --> 00:48:15,640
What are you afraid of?
You did well on your tests.

672
00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:18,440
I want to do art,
and artists have to make their way.

673
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:19,480
Oh, yeah?

674
00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:22,720
Private schools are unnecessary.
Public ones are fine.

675
00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:27,560
- Didn't you just say they were imbeciles?
- Not all of them. There are guitarists.

676
00:48:27,720 --> 00:48:31,560
- Ah, you made friends already.
- They're not friends yet, sweetie.

677
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:41,280
- Mom, did you buy Coke?
- Not me. It was probably her.

678
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,560
It was me, Aziz.
It was me.

679
00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:49,360
I felt like it.
It's not the end of the world, right?

680
00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:03,840
- She repeats everything you say.
- I didn't say anything about schools.

681
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:07,720
Didn't you tell Fikret
that an artist has to make his way?

682
00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,600
What can I do?
She absorbs everything.

683
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:15,280
She'll choose her own path
one way or the other.

684
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:19,720
What matters is our stance
regarding family.

685
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:22,720
- Our stance?
- Yeah, how we deal with problems.

686
00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:26,920
The best thing we can do
is prepare her for life.

687
00:49:27,720 --> 00:49:29,480
Straight from a soap opera.

688
00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:32,040
- Is that so?
- A bad one.

689
00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:36,040
Not everyone can be as sophisticated
as Aziz Tufan.

690
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:41,640
Hello, Kadriye.

691
00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:44,400
No, we're still awake.
What's up?

692
00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:55,920
Can't that be sped up?

693
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:00,440
OK. OK.

694
00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:03,960
It's alright. Thanks.

695
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:06,080
I'll be in touch.
Good night.

696
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:10,280
- What did she say?
- The court date is seven months off.

697
00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:12,160
- Seven months?
- Seven months.

698
00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:19,640
- Are you gonna call the taxi guy?
- Who?

699
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:21,400
My brother's friend.

700
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,880
I don't know.
I hadn't given it any thought yet.

701
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:27,720
What are we gonna do
for seven whole months?

702
00:50:28,720 --> 00:50:30,200
It's all so unclear.

703
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:34,040
Even if I drive a taxi,
what will you do?

704
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:38,600
Maybe I'll do
a soap opera.

705
00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:41,240
Or modeling.

706
00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:44,320
You're confident
in your beauty.

707
00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:46,360
Or I'll drive a truck.

708
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:49,720
Me truck, you taxi.
What do you think?

709
00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:52,480
Making our way.

710
00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:55,120
Why not?

711
00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:19,960
Listen.

712
00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:25,080
I won't have my face
worked on.

713
00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:30,280
Or make an ass of myself
to get more followers.

714
00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:35,200
No one expects you to.

715
00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:38,840
But social media
is important these days.

716
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:43,320
Now please don't get me wrong,
but...

717
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:45,680
But?

718
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:47,840
You're familiar with
the general situation.

719
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:48,920
Yes.

720
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:54,800
Your chances would improve if you deleted
some old social media posts.

721
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:55,840
Which ones?

722
00:51:57,520 --> 00:51:58,840
The political ones.

723
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:05,880
Don't say anything now.
Think it over.

724
00:52:07,240 --> 00:52:10,720
- Do what you think is right.
- We're not on the same page, Kübra.

725
00:52:12,720 --> 00:52:13,880
Thanks for the tea.

726
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,880
There are more customers during the day
and less traffic at night.

727
00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:23,360
Which would you prefer?

728
00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:24,880
The night.

729
00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:29,480
All right, at night. But be careful,
there's a lot of scum out there.

730
00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:31,120
I'll be careful.

731
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,960
- Do you know your way around Istanbul?
- Yeah, I grew up here.

732
00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:37,480
- You don't smoke, do you?
- No.

733
00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:39,240
- Customers can't smoke, either.
- Got it.

734
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:40,120
Great.

735
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:43,880
That "X" is new.
It used to say "TAKSİ."

736
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:48,360
May God protect you.

737
00:52:49,720 --> 00:52:50,560
Amen.

738
00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:56,560
What time is it?

739
00:53:57,640 --> 00:53:58,680
4:30.

740
00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:01,480
What are you doing?

741
00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:05,200
Making sandwiches for Ezgi.

742
00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:08,000
- Go back to bed.
- I can't sleep anyway.

743
00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:11,960
Hello!

744
00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:18,000
I can't take all of you, especially not
with alcohol. Please get back out.

745
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:27,960
What are you watching?

746
00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:31,800
They were banned from the faculty,
so they're giving courses in the parks.

747
00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:34,720
"Street Academy."

748
00:54:37,240 --> 00:54:38,520
Everything will be fine.

749
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:42,760
Say it.

750
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:46,040
Everything will be fine.

751
00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:47,240
Go on.

752
00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:50,960
Everything will be fine.

753
00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:57,720
- Hello. Welcome.
- Hello.

754
00:55:02,320 --> 00:55:03,320
Kadıköy, please.

755
00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:08,600
Where in Kadıköy?

756
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:11,040
The Blok Theater.
Do you know it?

757
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:12,280
Sure.

758
00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:30,760
- Keep the change.
- Thank you.

759
00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:35,120
- What are you watching?
- No idea. Friends invited us.

760
00:55:35,720 --> 00:55:37,920
- OK. Have fun. Have a nice evening.
- Thanks.

761
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:29,000
Hello.

762
00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:30,400
Hello. Welcome.

763
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:33,200
You brought
the whole market home.

764
00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:38,200
Grandma dragged us to the farthest corners
of the market. Why? It's more affordable.

765
00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:42,680
She's right. The front of the
market is most expensive.

766
00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:44,640
Is it worth the two lire?

767
00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:47,040
Money doesn't grow on trees.
Didn't you miss me?

768
00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,200
Thanks for the enlightenment,
and no, I didn't.

769
00:56:51,240 --> 00:56:52,320
Off you go.

770
00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:55,560
- I invited guests for tonight.
- Guests?

771
00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:57,760
My brother and family
to break the fast.

772
00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:00,040
Really?

773
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:04,240
- Why, are you busy?
- No, of course they can come.

774
00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:07,200
- You want coffee?
- No, I'm fasting.

775
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:09,920
- What?
- Are you serious?

776
00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:12,600
Yeah.
Need I justify myself?

777
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:14,480
No, I mean...

778
00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:17,640
To find favor with your brother?

779
00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:20,320
Am I a hypocrite?
We fasted as children, too.

780
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:23,640
I didn't say anything.
May God accept it.

781
00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:28,240
- How was it in the taxi?
- Well, not bad.

782
00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:32,200
I happened to pass
Baran's Theater.

783
00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:35,360
Which Baran? Can you chop
the onions? We're in a hurry.

784
00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:39,400
- From our old theater troupe.
- Baran Tuncyürek?

785
00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:40,760
- Yeah.
- Make them fine.

786
00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:44,840
He's acting in his own play
in Kadıköy.

787
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:47,040
I think he's part-owner.

788
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:50,480
- Weren't you driving the taxi?
- I dropped a customer off there.

789
00:57:51,080 --> 00:57:53,560
There were lots of people,
so I went inside.

790
00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:57,080
And I got us tickets
for Tuesday.

791
00:57:57,720 --> 00:57:59,320
In case
we feel like it.

792
00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:05,720
- You should've bought one for your mom.
- Why's that?

793
00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:08,680
I dunno.
She seems a bit tense.

794
00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:11,920
She and Ezgi argue a lot.
She should get out.

795
00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:17,360
My mom's like that.
Just grin and bear it.

796
00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:24,040
Grandma wants a coffee.

797
00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:25,560
Oh, great.

798
00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:28,160
Then do it and don't expect
everything from us.

799
00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:31,040
Your dad can show you exactly how.

800
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:32,760
I need a shower.

801
00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:36,560
- First comes the water...
- I know how to make coffee, Dad.

802
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,200
Was that the cannon?

803
00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:47,640
Your plates, please.

804
00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:49,880
Yes, we can start.

805
00:58:50,440 --> 00:58:52,480
- May Allah accept it.
- May Allah accept it.

806
00:58:53,080 --> 00:58:55,600
Thanks, Derya.
What a beautiful spread.

807
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:57,880
It was short notice,
forgive me.

808
00:58:58,720 --> 00:58:59,560
Enjoy.

809
00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:03,520
So, boys.

810
00:59:04,200 --> 00:59:06,080
How are you?
It's been a while.

811
00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:07,880
We're fine, Aunt Derya.

812
00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:09,920
We invited you to Ankara
so often.

813
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:12,840
- Pity we missed you on stage
- It's on YouTube.

814
00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:15,480
Why?
Are you no longer performing?

815
00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:19,280
- We don't know. It's still unclear.
- No kidding?

816
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:22,520
I really wanted to see you act,
too.

817
00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:27,440
Salih tells everyone his sister
is the star of the State Theater.

818
00:59:28,280 --> 00:59:32,080
It's nothing to brag about.
The indie theaters were braver than us.

819
00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:33,680
Nothing to brag about?

820
00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:36,480
I kept all the articles.

821
00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:39,240
They mostly just write
about the actors.

822
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:42,440
No one's interested
in the playwrights.

823
00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:43,800
Such is a writer's fate.

824
00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:46,040
But people who know my Aziz understand.

825
00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:49,800
I wanted the boys to do school plays,
but they didn't want to.

826
00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:53,080
- You have a theater group?
- Of course.

827
00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:56,640
There's a theater group,
but...

828
00:59:57,120 --> 01:00:01,880
- But, what? Is there one or not?
- Yeah, but they perform strange plays.

829
01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:03,280
What, for example?

830
01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:08,080
- That's beyond me. It's weird stuff.
- Maybe it's theater of the absurd.

831
01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:13,320
They're hardly giving children Jelinek
or Heiner Müller. Just harmless plays.

832
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:15,160
Who are they,
Grandma?

833
01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:19,800
Elfriede Jelinek
is an Austrian feminist author.

834
01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:23,560
You'll miss out on that
at state school.

835
01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:26,120
Can we stay off
that issue tonight?

836
01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:27,640
What issue?

837
01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:30,080
My parents want me to
attend a private school,

838
01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:32,000
- but I find it unnecessary.
- Ezgi.

839
01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:33,800
- What?
- Wait up.

840
01:00:35,520 --> 01:00:38,880
You want me
to sell the property for that reason?

841
01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:41,120
Well, yes.

842
01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:45,160
No income, lots of expenses.
Her school is the last straw.

843
01:00:46,080 --> 01:00:48,240
Barıș, Erdinç, stand up.

844
01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:50,840
Stand up.

845
01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:56,440
- Derya, what do you see?
- What am I supposed to see?

846
01:00:57,040 --> 01:01:00,360
Do you see any shortcomings?
Any abnormalities?

847
01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:02,120
Please sit down, boys.

848
01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:07,840
They're wonderful boys.
With love, respect, everything.

849
01:01:08,200 --> 01:01:10,440
Our state schools
are better than you think.

850
01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:12,800
- That's not the point.
- Then what is?

851
01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:14,960
Selling the land.

852
01:01:16,360 --> 01:01:19,160
We both inherited it.
It's as much ours as it is yours.

853
01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:20,760
- Derya.
- One second, Aziz.

854
01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:24,080
Since we're on this topic,
let me finish.

855
01:01:24,240 --> 01:01:27,920
Derya is right. The profile of schools
has changed in recent years.

856
01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:31,360
- I'm not talking about schools now.
- Derya, I repeat:

857
01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:33,560
If you need money,
I'll help you.

858
01:01:34,040 --> 01:01:36,000
We're a family, after all.
Right, Gülin?

859
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:38,240
Of course, Derya,
we'd be happy to help.

860
01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:40,480
It'd be a good deed
for holy Ramadan.

861
01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:42,160
Let's leave this be.

862
01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:57,360
Ezgi, can you get the baklava we brought
from the kitchen?

863
01:01:57,520 --> 01:02:00,080
It might help
lighten the mood.

864
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:01,520
Stay seated, Ezgi.

865
01:02:01,960 --> 01:02:04,120
Always the girls,
right?

866
01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:08,680
Erdinç, Barıș,
get the dessert for us today.

867
01:02:09,480 --> 01:02:11,160
Stay seated, boys.
I'll go.

868
01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:30,360
Darling, look at me.

869
01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:36,680
Instead of covering my back, you were
a coward in there, Aziz. I'm speechless.

870
01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:38,560
- Darling, I just wanted...
- Go.

871
01:02:39,480 --> 01:02:42,000
I don't want to talk to you right now.
Get out.

872
01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:10,480
Güllüoğlu's baklava
is in a class of its own.

873
01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:14,240
<i>Cross-border operations continue.</i>

874
01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:19,240
<i>The ministry declared, "We're committed</i>
<i>to eliminating terrorism at its source."</i>

875
01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:24,080
<i>Numerous targets were destroyed</i>
<i>in air and ground operations.</i>

876
01:03:24,240 --> 01:03:27,200
<i>Officials emphasized</i>
<i>that these operations</i>

877
01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:32,200
<i>are in accordance with international law</i>
<i>and the right to self-defense.</i>

878
01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:42,040
Lovely.
You're wearing perfume?

879
01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:43,600
From Grandma?

880
01:03:47,360 --> 01:03:50,920
And new earrings? Is that a snake?
Where did you get them?

881
01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:54,920
- Who's the lucky guy?
- Oh, Mom.

882
01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:56,720
Tell me.

883
01:03:56,880 --> 01:03:58,920
One of the guitar guys,
but it's not like that.

884
01:03:59,880 --> 01:04:02,680
- But he got you a present?
- He can't afford a gift.

885
01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:05,880
It's probably just
some promotional gift.

886
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,160
Do you have
a photo of him?

887
01:04:08,320 --> 01:04:09,880
No.
He doesn't use social media.

888
01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:12,720
- Cool.
- I think so, too.

889
01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:15,320
We want to go to the theater
next week.

890
01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:18,360
- Come with us and bring him along.
- Absolutely not.

891
01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:22,640
Don't introduce him.
We'll act like we don't know each other.

892
01:04:22,800 --> 01:04:25,520
I can't tell you anything.
You just want to marry us off.

893
01:04:26,320 --> 01:04:28,240
I'm just curious.

894
01:04:28,920 --> 01:04:32,120
But I want my privacy.
Give me some space.

895
01:04:32,280 --> 01:04:36,960
Darling, we mothers just want to know
who our children are hanging out with.

896
01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:40,200
It's no big deal.
We just play guitar together.

897
01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:45,120
Good. I'm happy when good people
come into your life.

898
01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:47,680
Don't tell Dad, OK?

899
01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:08,120
What are you writing?

900
01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:10,240
You can read it
when it's finished.

901
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:13,280
What do you think of Ezgi?

902
01:05:14,760 --> 01:05:15,840
What do you mean?

903
01:05:17,360 --> 01:05:18,960
Do you guys
talk at all?

904
01:05:21,960 --> 01:05:23,520
Have I
distracted you?

905
01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:26,600
We live together.
Of course we talk.

906
01:05:27,040 --> 01:05:28,640
But this isn't about Ezgi.

907
01:05:29,200 --> 01:05:30,720
- What then?
- About you.

908
01:05:31,160 --> 01:05:32,040
You.

909
01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:35,600
What we're going through
isn't easy for anyone.

910
01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:39,560
But I won't take another scolding
like I did tonight.

911
01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:49,800
- Dad, I want to ask you something.
- Ask away, love.

912
01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:52,360
Why didn't you teach me Kurdish?

913
01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:54,320
You speak Kurdish?

914
01:05:54,960 --> 01:05:59,000
- Yes, I'm taking a Kurdish course.
- What do you need it for?

915
01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:01,040
It's our mother tongue.

916
01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:03,640
I want to know who I am.

917
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:07,480
- You're Sultan.
- But I want to know my roots.

918
01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:09,240
Roots? You're not a plant.

919
01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:14,320
- I'll learn it without your help.
- Great. You get a star in your notebook.

920
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,000
- Are you making fun of me?
- Not at all.

921
01:06:20,080 --> 01:06:22,840
I don't know what language
to speak to you in.

922
01:06:23,320 --> 01:06:27,800
Maybe I could learn English, too.

923
01:06:31,040 --> 01:06:32,560
Sure, Dad.

924
01:06:39,720 --> 01:06:41,120
Welcome.

925
01:06:41,280 --> 01:06:43,600
- Let me hug you.
- Nice to see you here.

926
01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:46,520
We're glad to see you,
too.

927
01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:48,840
- There you go again.
- What's that?

928
01:06:49,200 --> 01:06:52,400
She's upset that I used the plural:
"We're glad."

929
01:06:52,560 --> 01:06:57,040
I can't stand
couples speaking for each other.

930
01:06:57,200 --> 01:07:01,000
- Aren't you glad to see Baran?
- I'm not glad, I'm happy.

931
01:07:01,720 --> 01:07:04,120
- The play was great.
- Thanks, Derya.

932
01:07:04,680 --> 01:07:06,320
Beer? Wine?
What do you want?

933
01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:08,280
- Water.
- Beer.

934
01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:11,240
- Beer.
- Rojda, two beers and a water, please.

935
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:12,280
Sure.

936
01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:16,160
Rojda and I run the joint.
I'd be lost without her.

937
01:07:22,840 --> 01:07:24,400
- Please. Stop.
- No.

938
01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:25,480
That won't do.

939
01:07:27,480 --> 01:07:28,360
Thank you.

940
01:07:29,080 --> 01:07:31,000
So, friends, how's life?

941
01:07:31,160 --> 01:07:33,680
Enjoying the stench of Istanbul.
And you?

942
01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:36,680
- And your hearing?
- We're still waiting.

943
01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:38,600
Can you go back
to the university soon?

944
01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:43,480
It'd be within my rights.
The same goes for my colleagues.

945
01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:47,640
- But none of us know what'll happen.
- Don't I know it.

946
01:07:48,200 --> 01:07:49,840
- Keep fighting.
- Right.

947
01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:51,480
And how are you, Baran?

948
01:07:51,640 --> 01:07:55,920
Trying to keep this place running.
There were maybe 50 people here today.

949
01:07:56,840 --> 01:08:01,240
If I didn't like you so much, I'd say:
Let's struggle here together.

950
01:08:02,160 --> 01:08:03,320
This was your night.

951
01:08:04,160 --> 01:08:07,000
Our theater isn't as big
as the one you're used to.

952
01:08:07,520 --> 01:08:08,960
We came to see you.

953
01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:12,000
That's what I'm saying:
Come and see me every day.

954
01:08:13,280 --> 01:08:15,360
Let's put something together
like we used to.

955
01:08:15,520 --> 01:08:17,880
Actors, writers, a venue...
We have it all.

956
01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:21,640
It's not my decision. Ask the Ministers of
Culture and Foreign Affairs.

957
01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:23,560
She only controls the Prime Minister,

958
01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:26,560
President, and Ministers of Education
and the Interior.

959
01:08:26,720 --> 01:08:30,400
Exactly.
One false word and I'll flatten you.

960
01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:31,680
Watch it.

961
01:08:38,160 --> 01:08:40,000
What do you make
of his suggestion?

962
01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:43,120
Well,

963
01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:47,960
now's not the right time
given all the uncertainty.

964
01:08:50,720 --> 01:08:54,360
Shouldn't we take fate into our own hands
instead of living in uncertainty?

965
01:08:54,880 --> 01:08:55,960
Meaning?

966
01:08:56,760 --> 01:09:00,960
Didn't you say we couldn't be
as brave as we wanted in Ankara?

967
01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:03,480
- So?
- So I think you're right.

968
01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:08,640
Looking back, we were dissatisfied
in Ankara, weren't we?

969
01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:12,040
We always had to have
the plays approved first.

970
01:09:14,040 --> 01:09:16,240
Remember our big dreams
in the beginning?

971
01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:20,720
Now our only dream
is to get through the day.

972
01:09:23,280 --> 01:09:25,120
Getting through the day
can't be a dream.

973
01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:26,840
It shouldn't be.

974
01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:20,720
- Coffee?
- I'll have a sip of yours.

975
01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:26,160
Here you go.

976
01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:31,520
"Yellow Letters?"

977
01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:34,600
What comes next?

978
01:10:36,120 --> 01:10:37,920
Read first.
Then we'll talk.

979
01:11:08,040 --> 01:11:08,800
You read it?

980
01:11:18,120 --> 01:11:19,200
What do you think?

981
01:11:20,440 --> 01:11:22,520
Don't you think
it's what we need?

982
01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:00,680
Sound.

983
01:12:06,160 --> 01:12:09,200
YELLOW LETTERS

984
01:12:10,640 --> 01:12:11,760
And action.

985
01:12:11,920 --> 01:12:12,720
Action.

986
01:12:15,880 --> 01:12:17,120
One by one.

987
01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:19,240
- Come through.
- Go ahead.

988
01:12:21,680 --> 01:12:22,640
Go ahead.

989
01:12:23,040 --> 01:12:24,080
Go.

990
01:12:25,320 --> 01:12:26,440
We're in a hurry.

991
01:12:31,920 --> 01:12:33,680
This way, please.

992
01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:37,360
- Go ahead, I'm coming.
- No, we'll wait.

993
01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:39,240
You can't wait here.
Please move on.

994
01:12:39,400 --> 01:12:42,680
Do you have a pacemaker
or other medical implants?

995
01:12:43,240 --> 01:12:46,200
No. It's metal in my bra.
No big deal.

996
01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:47,640
OK, please wait.

997
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:51,680
- Do you want tea or coffee?
- Cut that sentence.

998
01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:57,200
Greetings.

999
01:12:57,880 --> 01:13:00,720
- We're late, we have to go.
- OK, OK. No problem.

1000
01:13:01,800 --> 01:13:03,040
- Go through.
- Here.

1001
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:08,880
Jacket.

1002
01:13:15,200 --> 01:13:16,080
Shoes.

1003
01:13:25,080 --> 01:13:25,960
Bra.

1004
01:13:26,680 --> 01:13:27,400
Sorry?

1005
01:13:27,560 --> 01:13:30,480
- You have to take off your bra.
- God, are you joking?

1006
01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:33,640
- We're just following orders.
- We're all just following orders.

1007
01:13:33,800 --> 01:13:34,640
Please.

1008
01:13:35,400 --> 01:13:36,280
Go ahead.

1009
01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:43,440
I told you
it's the metal.

1010
01:13:44,160 --> 01:13:45,640
God, it beeped again.

1011
01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:48,080
- The pants have to come off, too.
- What?

1012
01:13:48,240 --> 01:13:50,560
- Take off your pants.
- Try it without pants.

1013
01:13:50,720 --> 01:13:52,320
- And my panties, too?
- Sure.

1014
01:13:54,560 --> 01:13:57,080
- Who are you undressing here?
- No reason to be rude.

1015
01:13:57,240 --> 01:13:58,360
Who are you undressing?

1016
01:13:58,800 --> 01:13:59,800
Take her away.

1017
01:13:59,960 --> 01:14:02,400
- What have I done?
- You'll see.

1018
01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:04,680
OK, OK.

1019
01:14:06,800 --> 01:14:07,680
Aziz.

1020
01:14:11,440 --> 01:14:13,560
I think the scene
has to end differently.

1021
01:14:13,720 --> 01:14:14,640
How so?

1022
01:14:15,280 --> 01:14:17,880
They should undress
the woman completely.

1023
01:14:18,040 --> 01:14:19,120
What do you mean?

1024
01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:21,120
Completely naked?

1025
01:14:21,920 --> 01:14:22,800
Well...

1026
01:14:24,120 --> 01:14:24,960
OK.

1027
01:14:25,840 --> 01:14:28,120
- How about it? Completely naked?
- Completely naked?

1028
01:14:29,840 --> 01:14:32,320
We're not in Europe,
so I don't know.

1029
01:14:32,720 --> 01:14:34,000
Rojda,
what do you say?

1030
01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:38,320
If you're unsure,
you should trust the actors' intuition.

1031
01:14:38,760 --> 01:14:43,160
But it's questionable if the female body
should be exhibited that way.

1032
01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:46,160
It's not about
what we want,

1033
01:14:46,320 --> 01:14:49,160
but what
the scene requires.

1034
01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:53,480
That's why the men shouldn't let her go
until she takes off her pants.

1035
01:14:54,360 --> 01:14:56,000
It's about transgression.

1036
01:14:56,160 --> 01:14:59,200
They shouldn't arrest her
before they get what they want.

1037
01:15:03,080 --> 01:15:05,680
OK. Noted.
We'll think about it.

1038
01:15:06,840 --> 01:15:09,640
Let's carry on
with the arrest for now.

1039
01:15:18,120 --> 01:15:19,520
In six weeks?

1040
01:15:19,680 --> 01:15:22,480
We can finish it by then.
What do you say?

1041
01:15:22,640 --> 01:15:24,240
We should take our time.

1042
01:15:25,800 --> 01:15:28,320
- What do you think of the title?
- What do you mean?

1043
01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:32,480
"Yellow Letters" is good,
but we could find something better.

1044
01:15:32,640 --> 01:15:35,320
"Yellow Letters" is good.
Our fight should be clear.

1045
01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:37,840
- I agree.
- I think so, too.

1046
01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:40,960
You wouldn't even be here
if not for the yellow letters.

1047
01:15:42,520 --> 01:15:45,240
Rojda,
do you want to elaborate on that?

1048
01:15:45,400 --> 01:15:48,200
- I'm just saying how it is.
- And how is it?

1049
01:15:48,360 --> 01:15:53,120
Well, you were comfortable
until you yourselves were affected.

1050
01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:55,680
You worked happily at the State Theater
for years, right?

1051
01:15:56,200 --> 01:15:57,960
Rojda,
that's no way to talk.

1052
01:15:59,160 --> 01:16:01,840
- Did our comfort bother you?
- She's right.

1053
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:04,480
But believe us,
we take this very seriously.

1054
01:16:13,160 --> 01:16:14,960
Fine.
The premiere is in six weeks.

1055
01:16:15,480 --> 01:16:17,280
What do you say
about the nudity?

1056
01:16:17,680 --> 01:16:18,960
What's her problem?

1057
01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:22,120
Don't take it personally.
Permission for another play was...

1058
01:16:22,280 --> 01:16:24,000
- Can we stay on point?
- What point?

1059
01:16:24,160 --> 01:16:25,080
The nudity.

1060
01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:29,880
People won't talk about the play,
but about Derya Tufan getting undressed.

1061
01:16:30,040 --> 01:16:33,480
Let them talk.
Eyes or breasts, what's the difference?

1062
01:16:33,640 --> 01:16:35,840
Your character
doesn't want to be undressed,

1063
01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:37,800
so the political symbolism is dubious.

1064
01:16:38,160 --> 01:16:39,400
Furthermore,

1065
01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:42,880
it's questionable
whether a male writer and director

1066
01:16:43,040 --> 01:16:45,720
can expect such a thing
from a female actress.

1067
01:16:45,880 --> 01:16:47,720
So it'd be different
if a woman had written it

1068
01:16:47,880 --> 01:16:49,160
and you're afraid of complaints.

1069
01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:51,680
We're used to complaints.

1070
01:16:51,840 --> 01:16:53,880
It was just a suggestion.

1071
01:16:54,040 --> 01:16:57,400
You wanted us to be braver, Aziz.
That was my starting point.

1072
01:17:01,640 --> 01:17:03,680
In any case,
let's do good publicity.

1073
01:17:04,280 --> 01:17:06,200
People should know
your work continues.

1074
01:17:06,720 --> 01:17:09,360
You could tell the whole world,
but the auditorium only has 100 seats.

1075
01:17:09,520 --> 01:17:11,680
Let's avoid unnecessary costs.

1076
01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:21,200
Ezgi.

1077
01:17:23,880 --> 01:17:24,760
Ezgi.

1078
01:17:27,160 --> 01:17:29,720
Ezgi,
did you fall into the toilet?

1079
01:17:30,160 --> 01:17:32,360
Come on,
I want to ask you something.

1080
01:17:35,960 --> 01:17:38,040
An actor's part.
Four letters.

1081
01:17:38,200 --> 01:17:40,560
Are you serious, Grandma?
Role, what else?

1082
01:17:41,160 --> 01:17:43,040
Albanian currency.
Three letters.

1083
01:17:43,200 --> 01:17:43,920
Lek.

1084
01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:47,600
Another word for idiot,
ten letters.

1085
01:17:47,760 --> 01:17:49,760
- No idea.
- Nincompoop.

1086
01:17:49,920 --> 01:17:51,200
Nincompoop?
How cool.

1087
01:17:52,240 --> 01:17:54,360
It's hot and will be hard
on your stomach.

1088
01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:57,600
- I'm meeting friends.
- But it's getting dark.

1089
01:17:57,760 --> 01:17:59,480
We'll be right out front.

1090
01:17:59,640 --> 01:18:02,800
Wait, where are you going?
And who are they?

1091
01:18:04,080 --> 01:18:07,960
Friends and I'll have my phone.
I'm getting fresh air. Don't worry.

1092
01:18:13,280 --> 01:18:14,520
- Hi.
- Hello.

1093
01:18:18,600 --> 01:18:19,680
Let's go.

1094
01:18:21,200 --> 01:18:25,160
- You know what a nincompoop is?
- A nincompoop? Is it some kind of demon?

1095
01:18:25,320 --> 01:18:27,280
No.
It's another word for fool.

1096
01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:32,960
"Honorable Judge,
Esteemed Court,

1097
01:18:33,480 --> 01:18:38,320
as a peaceful citizen who has always paid
every penny of his taxes

1098
01:18:38,480 --> 01:18:40,280
and never received
a parking ticket,

1099
01:18:40,440 --> 01:18:44,160
I'm surprised to find myself
facing serious criminal charges."

1100
01:18:45,760 --> 01:18:47,320
- Looks great.
- Yeah.

1101
01:18:50,480 --> 01:18:51,600
"I'm an academic,

1102
01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:56,160
and wish to carry out my scholarly work
in peace and freedom.

1103
01:18:57,600 --> 01:19:01,600
Freedom of thought and expression
is essential for any democracy.

1104
01:19:01,760 --> 01:19:05,520
Social problems should be solved through
common sense and discussion,

1105
01:19:05,680 --> 01:19:06,440
not violence."

1106
01:19:14,120 --> 01:19:16,600
Derya,
I have something interesting for you:

1107
01:19:16,760 --> 01:19:19,520
a main role in a series,
good people,

1108
01:19:20,000 --> 01:19:22,200
and a solid budget, too.

1109
01:19:23,360 --> 01:19:25,000
This isn't
what we arranged.

1110
01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:27,280
- I know.
- Derya, coffee?

1111
01:19:27,440 --> 01:19:31,360
I wouldn't be calling
if it wasn't ideal for you.

1112
01:19:32,960 --> 01:19:37,120
"I merely criticized the wars
that have been raging for years,

1113
01:19:37,280 --> 01:19:40,560
taking countless lives
and leaving deep scars on society.

1114
01:19:40,720 --> 01:19:45,200
I encouraged peaceful people
not to be afraid to express their views.

1115
01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:48,200
I had no criminal intent,
received no instructions

1116
01:19:48,360 --> 01:19:50,480
and did not engage in propaganda."

1117
01:19:50,640 --> 01:19:53,880
- I've been waiting...
- No, first the sentence, then go through.

1118
01:19:54,040 --> 01:19:56,760
Or what did we say?
The first line, right?

1119
01:19:56,920 --> 01:20:00,440
I'm waiting,
but don't know what I'm waiting for.

1120
01:20:01,440 --> 01:20:02,480
The princess has arrived.

1121
01:20:04,840 --> 01:20:06,760
- What princess?
- Come on.

1122
01:20:06,920 --> 01:20:08,680
Sorry.
Come back.

1123
01:20:09,680 --> 01:20:12,280
- What's the arms thing?
- Then you do it.

1124
01:20:13,840 --> 01:20:15,480
I'm not an actor.
No, no.

1125
01:20:19,720 --> 01:20:22,000
Twelve different brands
and I found the best buy.

1126
01:20:22,480 --> 01:20:26,120
Choosing well is important.
Just like with friends. You know?

1127
01:20:26,280 --> 01:20:27,280
Sorry?

1128
01:20:28,600 --> 01:20:31,960
- You mean İso? We're not even dating.
- And his last name?

1129
01:20:32,480 --> 01:20:34,880
- What is this, Mom?
- Try to understand:

1130
01:20:35,040 --> 01:20:37,120
I don't want
to have to worry.

1131
01:20:37,280 --> 01:20:40,520
Karacabaș.
There. Feel better now?

1132
01:20:40,680 --> 01:20:43,720
Or do you want his passport number,
address and anything else?

1133
01:20:45,360 --> 01:20:46,320
Tomato sauce.

1134
01:20:47,120 --> 01:20:47,880
Tomato sauce.

1135
01:20:48,800 --> 01:20:52,640
"I reject these accusations,
and demand my immediate acquittal."

1136
01:20:55,080 --> 01:20:58,480
<i>- Our students are hopeful.</i>
<i>- Yeah, Monday...</i>

1137
01:20:58,640 --> 01:21:00,720
<i>- We've missed you.</i>
<i>- The big day has come.</i>

1138
01:21:00,880 --> 01:21:03,080
<i>- And your statement?</i>
<i>- Derya is reading it.</i>

1139
01:21:03,240 --> 01:21:04,960
- Tell him hi.
- She says hi.

1140
01:21:05,120 --> 01:21:07,800
<i>- Likewise.</i>
<i>- OK, take care.</i>

1141
01:21:09,480 --> 01:21:10,640
It's concise.

1142
01:21:11,960 --> 01:21:12,840
Good.

1143
01:21:20,240 --> 01:21:22,720
- Children?
- Oh, we woke you up.

1144
01:21:22,880 --> 01:21:24,720
- What time is it?
- It's five.

1145
01:21:25,840 --> 01:21:28,440
I can't sleep anyway.
Have you eaten?

1146
01:21:29,440 --> 01:21:31,360
We prepared something
for the road.

1147
01:21:31,520 --> 01:21:33,800
Don't forget
Ezgi's sandwiches in the fridge.

1148
01:21:33,960 --> 01:21:35,040
Don't worry about her.

1149
01:21:35,200 --> 01:21:37,920
- Gotta go, the train won't wait.
- Lemme give you a hug.

1150
01:21:40,200 --> 01:21:42,960
You'll defend yourself till the end,
my child.

1151
01:21:44,040 --> 01:21:45,440
I'm praying for you.

1152
01:21:46,560 --> 01:21:47,480
Bye.

1153
01:22:26,800 --> 01:22:27,840
Here they are.

1154
01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:29,880
Come on, friends,
we're running late.

1155
01:22:58,160 --> 01:23:01,640
If it's not a crime to have an idea,
then it's also not a crime to express it.

1156
01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:04,920
Quiet.
Sit back down.

1157
01:23:05,080 --> 01:23:07,920
Both your time and ours is being wasted.
This isn't a crime.

1158
01:23:08,080 --> 01:23:10,480
- One day, we'll return to campus.
- Exactly.

1159
01:23:12,920 --> 01:23:15,040
This isn't a lecture hall.

1160
01:23:15,200 --> 01:23:18,000
Please don't forget that.
Let's carry on now.

1161
01:23:18,480 --> 01:23:20,680
- 2018-24.
- Present.

1162
01:23:27,560 --> 01:23:30,440
You are the son
of Mehmet and Güngör,

1163
01:23:30,600 --> 01:23:34,000
born January 12, 1975,
in Kadıköy, Istanbul,

1164
01:23:34,560 --> 01:23:39,880
current address: Apartment 1, 6 Bașak
Sokak, Esadoğlu District, Çankaya, Ankara.

1165
01:23:40,040 --> 01:23:41,920
- Correct?
- I'm now in Istanbul.

1166
01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:46,720
Evin Park Sitesi, Block C,
Apartment 46, Fikirtepe,

1167
01:23:46,880 --> 01:23:48,280
Kadıköy, Istanbul.

1168
01:23:48,440 --> 01:23:50,360
- Qualifications?
- Doctorate.

1169
01:23:50,520 --> 01:23:51,960
And profession?

1170
01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:55,480
- I'm an academic. I was dismissed.
- Your salary?

1171
01:23:56,120 --> 01:23:59,880
I don't earn a wage anymore
and work as a taxi driver.

1172
01:24:00,960 --> 01:24:04,520
- My salary is below minimum wage.
- Turkish citizen, no criminal record.

1173
01:24:05,920 --> 01:24:08,480
A complaint
has been filed against you.

1174
01:24:08,640 --> 01:24:13,320
You've written about the President
on social media.

1175
01:24:14,280 --> 01:24:15,800
Would you care to comment?

1176
01:24:17,400 --> 01:24:20,160
I'm not just an academic,
but also a writer.

1177
01:24:20,520 --> 01:24:23,360
I exist in a world of thought
and imagination.

1178
01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:27,640
Everything I write, including my plays,
is inspired by life.

1179
01:24:27,800 --> 01:24:31,680
I published these pieces
in light of the political situation.

1180
01:24:31,840 --> 01:24:34,800
I don't think they're offensive
and reject the charges.

1181
01:24:35,320 --> 01:24:39,200
This is our written statement,
but I'll also be making an oral plea.

1182
01:24:39,360 --> 01:24:43,440
You saw the list. We have hundreds
of trials. I'll give you three sentences.

1183
01:24:43,600 --> 01:24:44,760
Three sentences?

1184
01:24:44,920 --> 01:24:47,320
- Silence!
- This is unacceptable.

1185
01:24:48,040 --> 01:24:49,080
I agree with my client.

1186
01:24:49,240 --> 01:24:52,600
We sent our statement to the public
prosecutor and reject the charges.

1187
01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:57,360
His posts are merely criticism
and do not constitute a criminal offense.

1188
01:24:57,520 --> 01:25:01,640
Due to a complaint, the police
conducted a search on social media.

1189
01:25:02,200 --> 01:25:03,760
The police, public prosecutor,

1190
01:25:03,920 --> 01:25:06,320
and judiciary acted
with unprecedented haste.

1191
01:25:06,480 --> 01:25:11,280
They obviously targeted my client
to intimidate and deter him.

1192
01:25:11,440 --> 01:25:14,920
His posts are all protected
by freedom of speech.

1193
01:25:15,720 --> 01:25:20,320
I move to lift the imposed travel ban
and acquit my client.

1194
01:25:20,840 --> 01:25:22,240
I cannot consent.

1195
01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:25,520
We analyzed the complaint
against the defendant.

1196
01:25:25,680 --> 01:25:30,400
The defendant encouraged his students
to go to a demonstration during his class.

1197
01:25:31,200 --> 01:25:34,760
He also pressured the students
who refused his instructions.

1198
01:25:35,600 --> 01:25:40,680
No matter if they call it "anti-war,"
it was clearly against our State.

1199
01:25:41,880 --> 01:25:44,160
A video was made
in the seminar.

1200
01:25:44,560 --> 01:25:46,720
We request
that it now be shown.

1201
01:25:46,880 --> 01:25:49,440
The video
wasn't in the indictment.

1202
01:25:49,840 --> 01:25:52,360
We move that it be dismissed.

1203
01:25:54,160 --> 01:25:55,920
It's at the court's discretion.

1204
01:25:56,760 --> 01:26:00,040
- How long is the video?
- Brief, your Honor. Thirty seconds.

1205
01:26:00,840 --> 01:26:02,320
A finding
has been reached:

1206
01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:09,160
The video from the file
shall be shown.

1207
01:26:09,920 --> 01:26:11,360
But make it quick.

1208
01:26:18,880 --> 01:26:19,960
<i>Guys,</i>

1209
01:26:20,560 --> 01:26:23,600
<i>if you haven't seen</i>
<i>the State's theater,</i>

1210
01:26:24,040 --> 01:26:26,960
<i>then I can tell you nothing</i>
<i>about dramaturgy.</i>

1211
01:26:27,800 --> 01:26:28,840
<i>Do not miss this.</i>

1212
01:26:29,400 --> 01:26:32,400
<i>- With your permission, I'll go, too.</i>
<i>- Hurry.</i>

1213
01:26:34,680 --> 01:26:35,640
<i>And?</i>

1214
01:26:36,240 --> 01:26:37,280
<i>Anyone else?</i>

1215
01:26:37,440 --> 01:26:39,560
<i>I'd prefer to stay here.</i>

1216
01:26:40,320 --> 01:26:43,160
<i>- Me, too.</i>
<i>- We're here to learn.</i>

1217
01:26:44,920 --> 01:26:45,880
<i>Learn.</i>

1218
01:26:51,480 --> 01:26:53,840
As you see,
the video is clear.

1219
01:26:54,800 --> 01:27:00,320
We request criminal charges for engaging
in propaganda for a terrorist organization

1220
01:27:00,480 --> 01:27:02,800
and for insulting our State.

1221
01:27:04,520 --> 01:27:06,080
A verdict
has been reached:

1222
01:27:08,960 --> 01:27:14,440
The application to lift
the defendant's travel ban is rejected.

1223
01:27:14,800 --> 01:27:17,280
A serious crime
may have been committed.

1224
01:27:17,800 --> 01:27:20,760
In addition,
judicial oversight is ordered.

1225
01:27:20,920 --> 01:27:25,200
The plaintiff's request to file criminal
charges with the public prosecutor

1226
01:27:25,360 --> 01:27:27,520
will be considered
at a later date.

1227
01:27:36,840 --> 01:27:39,240
IN THE NAME OF THE PEOPLE

1228
01:27:48,280 --> 01:27:51,240
- Your mother called me three times.
- Me, too. What happened?

1229
01:27:53,120 --> 01:27:54,240
I'll find out.

1230
01:27:59,240 --> 01:28:00,960
Hello? Mother?

1231
01:28:02,600 --> 01:28:06,640
They pulled new charges out of their hat
and the judge approved them:

1232
01:28:07,520 --> 01:28:08,960
terrorism and insults.

1233
01:28:10,400 --> 01:28:12,640
More proceedings will follow.
We're waiting.

1234
01:28:13,320 --> 01:28:14,680
I'm so sorry.

1235
01:28:18,640 --> 01:28:20,240
Tell me what's going on.

1236
01:28:21,520 --> 01:28:22,640
Give me that.

1237
01:28:24,040 --> 01:28:25,680
Mom, what happened?

1238
01:28:26,920 --> 01:28:27,920
Won't listen?

1239
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:33,600
OK, Mom.

1240
01:28:34,480 --> 01:28:35,600
We're on our way.

1241
01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:37,640
What happened?

1242
01:28:38,400 --> 01:28:40,800
- We have to go back.
- What's wrong, where are you going?

1243
01:28:40,960 --> 01:28:43,840
Guys, things are tense in Istanbul, too.
We have to go.

1244
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:45,200
Come on!

1245
01:28:45,360 --> 01:28:48,760
- Why did you come only to go?
- That's how it is, Fiko.

1246
01:28:48,920 --> 01:28:51,480
But you only come
once in a blue moon.

1247
01:28:51,640 --> 01:28:53,720
- I can go and you stay.
- No, no.

1248
01:28:53,880 --> 01:28:55,520
Fiko, stop it, please.

1249
01:28:55,680 --> 01:28:59,200
We welcomed you like a brother,
and now you're just leaving again?

1250
01:28:59,360 --> 01:29:01,440
- Just let them go.
- Where to?

1251
01:29:01,600 --> 01:29:04,080
We were going to teach
in the park tomorrow.

1252
01:29:04,240 --> 01:29:07,360
Your students were looking forward
to seeing you.

1253
01:29:07,520 --> 01:29:09,360
OK, OK, then next time.

1254
01:29:10,080 --> 01:29:14,280
That's not how it works.
You have to take responsibility, too.

1255
01:29:14,440 --> 01:29:18,600
Right, friends? They might've
sent us straight to prison today.

1256
01:29:19,120 --> 01:29:20,760
- You're exaggerating.
- I'm not.

1257
01:29:20,920 --> 01:29:22,080
We're raising a child.

1258
01:29:22,240 --> 01:29:25,440
You have to understand.
We're not going back for fun, OK?

1259
01:29:25,600 --> 01:29:27,760
Go ahead.
We won't bug you anymore.

1260
01:29:27,920 --> 01:29:31,000
- You're talking nonsense.
- I'm talking nonsense?

1261
01:29:31,160 --> 01:29:32,480
Okay, I didn't say anything.

1262
01:29:32,640 --> 01:29:34,720
Ezgi has a problem and my mother is alone.

1263
01:29:34,880 --> 01:29:37,880
I have to go to Istanbul and that's it.
Have a nice evening.

1264
01:29:38,040 --> 01:29:40,760
Got it. Have a nice evening.
We'll take care.

1265
01:29:40,920 --> 01:29:43,840
- That's impudence.
- I'm impudent?

1266
01:29:45,240 --> 01:29:48,080
That's bullshit.
What complete nonsense.

1267
01:29:49,600 --> 01:29:51,320
Now we're arguing
among ourselves.

1268
01:30:29,040 --> 01:30:30,400
I wanted to talk to her.

1269
01:30:31,080 --> 01:30:36,120
"Why the hell are you looking in my bag,"
she shouted, and then stormed out.

1270
01:30:36,600 --> 01:30:38,400
She was gone for hours.

1271
01:30:38,560 --> 01:30:40,760
With whom? Where?
I was so scared.

1272
01:30:40,920 --> 01:30:43,000
We have to find
an apartment.

1273
01:30:43,160 --> 01:30:45,240
Is that your takeaway?
My God.

1274
01:30:45,400 --> 01:30:47,800
Don't get me wrong,
this has nothing to do with you.

1275
01:30:47,960 --> 01:30:49,600
Alright.
Drop it.

1276
01:30:50,760 --> 01:30:51,880
I'll talk to her.

1277
01:30:56,400 --> 01:30:57,880
Open the door,
it's me.

1278
01:31:11,320 --> 01:31:12,240
Ezgi.

1279
01:31:14,120 --> 01:31:16,880
- Look at me.
- Damn, Dad, just leave me alone.

1280
01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:18,440
OK, here.

1281
01:31:19,800 --> 01:31:20,840
Light up.

1282
01:31:22,360 --> 01:31:23,800
Let's have a smoke.

1283
01:31:24,960 --> 01:31:28,160
Listen. What can I say?
I smoke, too.

1284
01:31:28,960 --> 01:31:31,360
You're not a child anymore.
You understand.

1285
01:31:31,520 --> 01:31:35,360
Dad, you and your understanding routine
are so annoying.

1286
01:31:35,520 --> 01:31:38,240
What do you expect?
For me to be authoritarian?

1287
01:31:38,960 --> 01:31:41,200
With bans, punishments,
and everything?

1288
01:31:41,600 --> 01:31:46,200
We want to protect you, but you've grown
up and I need to trust you.

1289
01:31:46,360 --> 01:31:50,080
- She went through my bag.
- No one went through your bag.

1290
01:31:50,240 --> 01:31:55,400
We understand you're angry, but Grandma
was just checking for dirty laundry.

1291
01:31:56,240 --> 01:32:00,160
If I went through your notebook,
you'd be mad too, right?

1292
01:32:01,760 --> 01:32:02,520
Here.

1293
01:32:03,280 --> 01:32:04,920
Go right ahead.

1294
01:32:05,080 --> 01:32:07,680
Some notes
are very associative.

1295
01:32:08,800 --> 01:32:11,520
My statement from today is there,
if you're interested.

1296
01:32:11,680 --> 01:32:12,760
I don't want to.

1297
01:32:14,680 --> 01:32:17,120
Well, I'll leave it anyway.

1298
01:32:38,240 --> 01:32:39,360
DELETE POST?

1299
01:32:41,440 --> 01:32:42,480
DELETE POST?

1300
01:32:50,640 --> 01:32:52,800
Rașit,
I don't know what to say.

1301
01:32:54,040 --> 01:32:56,000
It was just an offer,
my love.

1302
01:32:57,640 --> 01:32:59,080
And it still stands.

1303
01:33:00,720 --> 01:33:02,520
Do we have to do this
to each other?

1304
01:33:03,720 --> 01:33:04,640
Do what?

1305
01:33:05,920 --> 01:33:07,600
These conversations.

1306
01:33:08,320 --> 01:33:10,160
We could cut them short.

1307
01:33:10,560 --> 01:33:12,920
We both know
where this is going.

1308
01:33:14,080 --> 01:33:15,520
What are you saying?

1309
01:33:16,040 --> 01:33:19,160
I say, "You're suffocating me,
I feel trapped. Don't you get it?"

1310
01:33:19,320 --> 01:33:24,840
You say, "But it's not easy for me either.
I'm in a forbidden relationship."

1311
01:33:25,000 --> 01:33:29,240
Then I say, "Sorry, but that's
your problem, your mess to fix.

1312
01:33:29,400 --> 01:33:31,720
You think you have to support me
because I'm sick,

1313
01:33:31,880 --> 01:33:34,240
but I don't want the kind of attention
called pity."

1314
01:33:34,720 --> 01:33:39,040
You say how you feel for me, but I don't
want that either, so it's a dead-end.

1315
01:33:41,040 --> 01:33:44,320
Then you make that crushed face
I sometimes find sexy.

1316
01:33:45,240 --> 01:33:47,040
And that's your big moment.

1317
01:33:47,200 --> 01:33:50,840
You stand up and announce
in the manner of a great thinker: "Yes,

1318
01:33:51,680 --> 01:33:54,400
a little distance
would do us both good."

1319
01:33:56,160 --> 01:33:59,320
Then you pack your things
and bada-bing.

1320
01:34:00,120 --> 01:34:02,240
- You leave.
- Leave? For where?

1321
01:34:03,520 --> 01:34:06,040
Cut.
You leave for your wife.

1322
01:34:07,960 --> 01:34:11,920
- You were great. Thank you, guys.
- I thought she was gonna eat me up.

1323
01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:14,400
I didn't imagine the character
like that,

1324
01:34:14,560 --> 01:34:17,120
but it has a hell of an effect.
Thanks so much.

1325
01:34:17,280 --> 01:34:18,560
The pleasure was mine.

1326
01:34:19,200 --> 01:34:22,560
- When will you know?
- When will we know?

1327
01:34:23,880 --> 01:34:26,960
- As soon as possible.
- We'll be in touch very soon.

1328
01:34:27,400 --> 01:34:30,080
Great.
Derya, come with me.

1329
01:34:32,640 --> 01:34:34,720
- Take care.
- Thanks so much. Goodbye.

1330
01:34:36,000 --> 01:34:37,320
- See you.
- Bye.

1331
01:34:45,560 --> 01:34:47,640
- This doesn't work.
- I'll deal with it later.

1332
01:34:47,800 --> 01:34:49,960
Should she move
while she speaks?

1333
01:34:50,120 --> 01:34:52,000
- Like yesterday.
- Like the last rehearsal.

1334
01:34:52,160 --> 01:34:53,600
She'll sit down here.

1335
01:34:56,240 --> 01:34:57,880
So it's no longer static.

1336
01:35:00,960 --> 01:35:03,120
Where were you?
You weren't answering your phone.

1337
01:35:03,280 --> 01:35:04,280
I'm here now.

1338
01:35:04,440 --> 01:35:06,760
But we've all been waiting.

1339
01:35:06,920 --> 01:35:08,360
- I had a job.
- What job?

1340
01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:12,520
Aziz, let's not argue.
I'm here now. OK?

1341
01:35:12,680 --> 01:35:13,880
Let's begin.

1342
01:35:14,040 --> 01:35:17,720
- No hurry. Feel free to get a coffee.
- No, thanks. Where do we start?

1343
01:35:17,880 --> 01:35:18,880
"I'm waiting."

1344
01:35:19,680 --> 01:35:22,880
Alright, we start with the third act,
the monologue.

1345
01:35:39,240 --> 01:35:40,080
I'm waiting.

1346
01:35:42,640 --> 01:35:43,720
Been waiting a while.

1347
01:35:44,640 --> 01:35:46,840
I don't even know
what for.

1348
01:35:47,600 --> 01:35:48,760
But I'm waiting.

1349
01:35:50,040 --> 01:35:51,480
Maybe you already know:

1350
01:35:52,360 --> 01:35:55,000
Being made to wait
is an act of control exercised

1351
01:35:55,160 --> 01:35:57,840
by the person or institution
keeping you waiting.

1352
01:35:58,360 --> 01:36:01,960
Making someone wait is a tool
of authoritarian regimes.

1353
01:36:02,760 --> 01:36:03,800
But...

1354
01:36:04,320 --> 01:36:06,880
if you don't know
what you're waiting for,

1355
01:36:07,360 --> 01:36:10,760
you're consumed by uncertainty.
You drown in it.

1356
01:36:11,560 --> 01:36:14,680
And uncertainty, beyond even
authoritarianism,

1357
01:36:14,840 --> 01:36:16,560
is a totalitarian method.

1358
01:36:28,720 --> 01:36:29,600
What's up?

1359
01:36:36,080 --> 01:36:38,160
- Aziz, I don't know.
- What don't you know?

1360
01:36:43,120 --> 01:36:46,920
We're talking about self-determination,
well and good,

1361
01:36:47,400 --> 01:36:50,480
but it feels rather self-absorbed.

1362
01:36:50,920 --> 01:36:55,120
It comes over as didactic:
"It's like this or that."

1363
01:36:56,040 --> 01:36:58,200
I think we should
revise the text again.

1364
01:36:58,360 --> 01:36:59,720
Come on, Derya.

1365
01:36:59,880 --> 01:37:02,640
- Shall we take a break?
- A break? We just started.

1366
01:37:03,080 --> 01:37:04,240
Sorry.

1367
01:37:09,520 --> 01:37:10,880
Where are you going?

1368
01:37:13,120 --> 01:37:14,440
Where are you going,
Derya?

1369
01:37:49,280 --> 01:37:51,120
Is there something
you want to tell me?

1370
01:37:53,840 --> 01:37:57,080
Shall we go out for pizza tonight?
Ezgi would like that.

1371
01:37:57,480 --> 01:37:59,840
My mom bought meat.
There'd be hell to pay.

1372
01:38:00,000 --> 01:38:02,320
- As long as your mom's happy.
- Is something up?

1373
01:38:02,480 --> 01:38:04,800
I have a headache.
I must be menstruating.

1374
01:38:04,960 --> 01:38:07,360
Fine.
Shall we call it a day?

1375
01:38:07,920 --> 01:38:09,920
- Who was on the phone?
- A friend.

1376
01:38:10,080 --> 01:38:11,560
A friend? How nice.

1377
01:38:11,720 --> 01:38:13,520
- Need I justify myself?
- Of course not.

1378
01:38:13,680 --> 01:38:17,200
I was just wondering
whose call you dropped everything for.

1379
01:38:17,600 --> 01:38:21,560
Aziz, it's all too much. Can the play wait
until we sort things out?

1380
01:38:21,720 --> 01:38:25,480
We're sorting things out here, Derya.
Don't embarrass me.

1381
01:38:25,640 --> 01:38:28,040
- In front of whom?
- Those who welcomed us.

1382
01:38:28,200 --> 01:38:31,480
We need to pull together.
Or else we'll prove Rojda right.

1383
01:38:31,640 --> 01:38:33,800
OK.
Forget about it, Aziz.

1384
01:38:36,120 --> 01:38:37,640
This is getting ridiculous.

1385
01:38:42,280 --> 01:38:45,400
- Is it good?
- Yes, but I've stopped eating meat.

1386
01:38:47,040 --> 01:38:49,800
Those chops
are worth their weight in gold.

1387
01:38:49,960 --> 01:38:51,880
Another reason
not to eat meat.

1388
01:38:52,640 --> 01:38:55,040
People used to say:
Meat in the house means no worries.

1389
01:38:55,200 --> 01:38:57,320
- Back then, meat was special.
- Sure, Dad.

1390
01:38:57,480 --> 01:38:59,960
Not much has changed
since then.

1391
01:39:01,440 --> 01:39:02,760
Derya, you aren't eating.

1392
01:39:02,920 --> 01:39:04,840
- Mom's on a beer diet.
- Barley juice.

1393
01:39:05,640 --> 01:39:07,880
Thank you,
everything is delicious.

1394
01:39:08,040 --> 01:39:11,840
I was planning to take you all out,
but this is nice, too.

1395
01:39:12,000 --> 01:39:13,840
I have something to tell you.

1396
01:39:15,000 --> 01:39:15,960
What's up?

1397
01:39:17,160 --> 01:39:19,680
- Are you pregnant?
- Come off it, Mom.

1398
01:39:20,360 --> 01:39:23,120
- Big sister vibes.
- Luckily, I'm beyond that.

1399
01:39:23,280 --> 01:39:26,120
Why? Nowadays women
have children at fifty.

1400
01:39:26,280 --> 01:39:28,000
So,
what I wanted to say:

1401
01:39:30,160 --> 01:39:31,760
I'm starting a new job.

1402
01:39:32,560 --> 01:39:33,920
What is it?

1403
01:39:34,360 --> 01:39:35,840
A TV series.
Lead role.

1404
01:39:36,680 --> 01:39:37,680
Really?

1405
01:39:40,840 --> 01:39:42,520
Go on,
we're listening.

1406
01:39:43,000 --> 01:39:46,760
I'll be playing a wealthy, urban woman
who owns an ad agency:

1407
01:39:46,920 --> 01:39:50,360
"Paradise Garden,"
which is the name of the series, too.

1408
01:39:51,320 --> 01:39:55,920
She has many affairs, but nothing steady.
She has a sharp tongue.

1409
01:39:56,840 --> 01:40:00,040
Her father lives with her.
He always thinks he's sick...

1410
01:40:00,200 --> 01:40:01,480
What's that called?

1411
01:40:01,640 --> 01:40:03,600
- Hypochondria.
- Exactly.

1412
01:40:04,440 --> 01:40:07,120
He keeps calling her,
so she gets a second phone.

1413
01:40:07,280 --> 01:40:08,920
- And then?
- Well...

1414
01:40:09,880 --> 01:40:13,680
Cemre Çiğdem is the young,
talented director. The team is great.

1415
01:40:14,720 --> 01:40:17,120
So you've met the team?
When?

1416
01:40:17,280 --> 01:40:19,400
Recently.
It all went quickly.

1417
01:40:19,560 --> 01:40:22,040
So that was the call.
Why didn't you say anything?

1418
01:40:22,200 --> 01:40:25,960
I had to audition.
Nothing was certain yet.

1419
01:40:26,120 --> 01:40:29,040
- Which channel?
- Channel K. We start next week.

1420
01:40:30,480 --> 01:40:31,560
Channel K?

1421
01:40:34,200 --> 01:40:36,960
Is that why you want to postpone
the play?

1422
01:40:37,120 --> 01:40:39,960
Either that or someone else
plays the part.

1423
01:40:40,120 --> 01:40:41,840
Wait, wait.
Someone else?

1424
01:40:43,360 --> 01:40:49,840
Derya, Channel K? Next week? Someone else?
Are you even hearing yourself?

1425
01:40:50,000 --> 01:40:52,320
This is an opportunity
to take matters...

1426
01:40:52,480 --> 01:40:54,280
So we're opportunists now?

1427
01:40:54,440 --> 01:40:56,400
That channel targeted us.

1428
01:40:56,560 --> 01:40:59,920
This is about Ezgi's future.
If you don't understand that...

1429
01:41:00,080 --> 01:41:03,840
If you care about the future, consider
what these series instill in society.

1430
01:41:04,000 --> 01:41:09,480
The scripts are progressive. And you can't
feed a family with art theater.

1431
01:41:09,640 --> 01:41:12,200
We're basically freeloaders here.

1432
01:41:13,080 --> 01:41:14,760
This is your home, too.

1433
01:41:14,920 --> 01:41:18,160
No, this is your apartment
and we're guests.

1434
01:41:19,560 --> 01:41:20,840
What's the pay?

1435
01:41:21,760 --> 01:41:24,440
- Sorry?
- She means your fee.

1436
01:41:25,600 --> 01:41:29,320
Enough to give us breathing room
and pay for Ezgi's school.

1437
01:41:29,480 --> 01:41:33,840
- I don't want to go to private school.
- Mom, you made an offer to help us, right?

1438
01:41:34,000 --> 01:41:35,400
- What offer?
- Ezgi's school.

1439
01:41:35,560 --> 01:41:38,320
- I don't want that stupid school.
- Does the offer stand?

1440
01:41:38,480 --> 01:41:42,360
Thank you very much,
but I want to earn my own money.

1441
01:41:42,520 --> 01:41:44,880
You yourself spoke about
self-determination.

1442
01:41:45,040 --> 01:41:48,080
This is why they say everyone
has a price.

1443
01:41:48,240 --> 01:41:49,280
What do you mean?

1444
01:41:49,440 --> 01:41:51,800
- Just what I said. You heard me.
- What are you talking about?

1445
01:41:51,960 --> 01:41:54,600
Aziz, look at me.

1446
01:41:54,760 --> 01:41:56,280
You're ignoring reality.

1447
01:41:56,440 --> 01:41:59,400
Your obsession
with art is full of arrogance.

1448
01:41:59,560 --> 01:42:03,520
- Mom, bring her to her senses.
- "Her?" Are you calling me "her?"

1449
01:42:03,680 --> 01:42:07,320
Let's talk this through.
It's good if she can earn her own money.

1450
01:42:07,480 --> 01:42:10,200
Money, money, money
is all anyone cares about.

1451
01:42:10,360 --> 01:42:12,800
That's just where they want us.
Don't you see?

1452
01:42:12,960 --> 01:42:14,440
I'm tired of resisting.

1453
01:42:14,600 --> 01:42:18,160
Does getting involved at the theater
makes you a resistance fighter?

1454
01:42:18,320 --> 01:42:19,920
- If only I hadn't.
- Precisely.

1455
01:42:20,080 --> 01:42:22,080
You have no right
to judge me.

1456
01:42:22,240 --> 01:42:25,080
Your friends are out on the streets
while you stroke your ego.

1457
01:42:25,240 --> 01:42:28,080
- My ego? Shame on you.
- Friends tell the truth.

1458
01:42:28,240 --> 01:42:31,520
I'm not your friend. Had I known you'd
sell out so quickly, I'd...

1459
01:42:31,680 --> 01:42:32,920
You'd what?

1460
01:42:34,480 --> 01:42:35,800
Finish your sentence.

1461
01:42:43,000 --> 01:42:44,200
Where are you going?

1462
01:43:05,240 --> 01:43:06,160
She's not answering.

1463
01:43:07,520 --> 01:43:10,200
It's fine, Mom.
They're probably together.

1464
01:43:11,800 --> 01:43:14,040
I really didn't want this.
Forgive us.

1465
01:43:16,000 --> 01:43:17,360
I'm with you, dear.

1466
01:43:18,360 --> 01:43:20,880
If you can earn your own money,
go for it.

1467
01:43:35,000 --> 01:43:35,800
Yes?

1468
01:43:35,960 --> 01:43:37,200
<i>Where are you, Aziz?</i>

1469
01:43:37,720 --> 01:43:40,520
On my way to tell Baran
we're ditching him.

1470
01:43:40,680 --> 01:43:43,000
I'll do that myself,
no problem.

1471
01:43:43,520 --> 01:43:46,200
<i>- Is that why you called?</i>
<i>- Is Ezgi with you?</i>

1472
01:43:47,360 --> 01:43:48,320
No, why would she be?

1473
01:43:48,480 --> 01:43:51,320
<i>- I thought she might've followed you.</i>
<i>- Have you called her?</i>

1474
01:43:51,480 --> 01:43:54,040
<i>Many times.</i>
<i>We can't reach her or her friends</i>

1475
01:43:54,200 --> 01:43:56,520
<i>- Where could she have gone, Derya?</i>
<i>- I don't know.</i>

1476
01:43:56,680 --> 01:43:59,400
<i>- Maybe she went to your brother's.</i>
<i>- Why would she?</i>

1477
01:43:59,560 --> 01:44:01,600
<i>Whatever.</i>
<i>I'm coming back. See you.</i>

1478
01:44:10,320 --> 01:44:11,240
Nothing.

1479
01:44:13,240 --> 01:44:14,120
Where is she?

1480
01:44:15,920 --> 01:44:17,440
Let's go to the police.

1481
01:44:17,600 --> 01:44:19,840
- Should I come along?
- Stay here in case she returns.

1482
01:44:24,240 --> 01:44:25,520
<i>- Hello.</i>
<i>- Hey, brother.</i>

1483
01:44:25,680 --> 01:44:27,560
<i>- What's up, Derya?</i>
<i>- Were you asleep?</i>

1484
01:44:28,000 --> 01:44:30,520
<i>- No, we're still up.</i>
<i>- Sorry to bother you.</i>

1485
01:44:30,680 --> 01:44:34,320
<i>- Don't be silly. What's up?</i>
<i>- We're dealing with a bit of a crisis.</i>

1486
01:44:34,480 --> 01:44:36,360
<i>- Meaning?</i>
<i>- Ezgi isn't with you, is she?</i>

1487
01:44:36,520 --> 01:44:37,880
<i>Ezgi? No.</i>

1488
01:44:38,320 --> 01:44:40,760
<i>- OK, thanks.</i>
<i>- What's going on?</i>

1489
01:44:41,400 --> 01:44:45,280
<i>- I'll call back, gotta go.</i>
<i>- It's the middle of the night. Hello?</i>

1490
01:44:46,720 --> 01:44:50,480
Nothing? Where the hell could she be?
All the scum is out now.

1491
01:44:50,640 --> 01:44:53,200
- Well, there was a boy...
- What boy?

1492
01:44:53,360 --> 01:44:56,280
- Someone she sees.
- What are you talking about, Derya?

1493
01:44:56,440 --> 01:44:58,080
Our daughter's boyfriend, Aziz.

1494
01:44:58,240 --> 01:45:00,600
Bravo. And you tell me this now?
Who is he?

1495
01:45:00,760 --> 01:45:05,440
İso or İsmail. From school.
They play guitar. She said it's innocent.

1496
01:45:05,600 --> 01:45:09,560
Didn't you ask who he is,
what his parents do, where he lives?

1497
01:45:09,720 --> 01:45:13,120
- Yes, but I didn't get answers.
- You're all driving me crazy.

1498
01:45:13,280 --> 01:45:17,400
I feel like a third wheel.
I've become an outsider in my own home.

1499
01:45:17,560 --> 01:45:19,960
You don't treat your family
any differently.

1500
01:45:20,480 --> 01:45:21,880
What's this nonsense now?

1501
01:45:22,040 --> 01:45:24,480
You're either in a taxi or at the theater.

1502
01:45:24,640 --> 01:45:27,000
When was the last time you
spent time with Ezgi,

1503
01:45:27,160 --> 01:45:29,240
studied together or took her somewhere?

1504
01:45:29,400 --> 01:45:31,760
I make her sandwiches
at the crack of dawn.

1505
01:45:31,920 --> 01:45:35,520
Which she gives to other children.
Didn't you know that?

1506
01:45:35,680 --> 01:45:39,080
She's tired of eating the same thing
every day and asks me for money.

1507
01:45:40,440 --> 01:45:42,240
All the silence,
then it comes out.

1508
01:45:42,400 --> 01:45:44,920
I waited and hoped,
but if you had your way,

1509
01:45:45,080 --> 01:45:47,320
we'd spend ten years with your mother.

1510
01:45:47,720 --> 01:45:51,080
What do you want from me?
You find fault with everything I do.

1511
01:45:51,240 --> 01:45:53,280
- Take responsibility.
- Responsibility?

1512
01:45:53,440 --> 01:45:57,760
My biggest responsibility
is to be a role model for my child,

1513
01:45:57,920 --> 01:46:01,280
- not sneak around behind your back.
- Sneak around?

1514
01:46:01,440 --> 01:46:04,840
Do I need your permission to work?
What century do you live in?

1515
01:46:05,000 --> 01:46:07,520
Permission?
I was confronted with a fait accompli.

1516
01:46:07,680 --> 01:46:10,160
Yes, and you'll have to accept it.

1517
01:46:10,320 --> 01:46:14,280
Writing pseudo-feminist plays
won't cut it. Try actually living it.

1518
01:46:14,440 --> 01:46:15,520
Stop twisting things.

1519
01:46:15,680 --> 01:46:18,800
We both know what trashy channel
you're about to work for.

1520
01:46:18,960 --> 01:46:21,920
Of course we do.
Are you the only smart one here?

1521
01:46:23,560 --> 01:46:24,880
You're ethically bankrupt.

1522
01:46:25,040 --> 01:46:29,680
Ethics? We're doing ethics now?
At least I know why I'm doing this.

1523
01:46:29,840 --> 01:46:32,120
Should I rot in that tiny theater
at my age?

1524
01:46:32,680 --> 01:46:35,080
All so pseudo-intellectuals can sit around

1525
01:46:35,240 --> 01:46:37,680
stroking their egos
and playing revolution.

1526
01:46:37,840 --> 01:46:40,920
You're throwing away years of work
with two sentences.

1527
01:46:41,080 --> 01:46:43,800
And you think
you can save the world with theater.

1528
01:46:45,480 --> 01:46:48,840
- You're chasing false dreams.
- Then don't run with me.

1529
01:46:49,000 --> 01:46:52,600
Ezgi is missing because of those 'friends'
at that school.

1530
01:46:52,760 --> 01:46:55,360
Do your damn show
and drink rakı with your crew,

1531
01:46:55,520 --> 01:46:57,760
but don't tell me what's right and wrong.

1532
01:46:57,920 --> 01:47:01,920
You started the moral debate.
You're the one judging everything.

1533
01:47:02,080 --> 01:47:03,040
Alright?

1534
01:47:04,640 --> 01:47:06,640
Our whole life
revolves around you.

1535
01:47:07,320 --> 01:47:10,600
Aziz's mother bought meat,
sit down and eat.

1536
01:47:11,680 --> 01:47:13,840
Defend Aziz's play,
get fired.

1537
01:47:14,520 --> 01:47:16,600
Go to Aziz's trial,
look stupid.

1538
01:47:16,760 --> 01:47:18,760
Aziz is writing a play,
stand by.

1539
01:47:18,920 --> 01:47:22,760
Then don't. I wish I hadn't written
a single line for an ingrate like you.

1540
01:47:23,400 --> 01:47:26,920
You shouldn't have. I don't need you.
Play the part yourself.

1541
01:47:27,080 --> 01:47:30,240
- You forget where you came from.
- Who do you think you are?

1542
01:47:30,400 --> 01:47:34,840
I made you.
Without me, you'd be nothing but trash.

1543
01:47:35,000 --> 01:47:36,960
You'd be nothing.
I made you an actress.

1544
01:47:39,440 --> 01:47:40,160
Right.

1545
01:47:41,520 --> 01:47:42,720
You made me.

1546
01:47:42,880 --> 01:47:43,960
I'm trash.

1547
01:47:45,120 --> 01:47:46,480
Drive us to the police.

1548
01:48:17,960 --> 01:48:18,800
Sorry.

1549
01:48:19,680 --> 01:48:20,920
- Sorry.
- Yes?

1550
01:48:22,680 --> 01:48:23,720
- Evening.
- Evening.

1551
01:48:23,880 --> 01:48:27,080
We're looking for our daughter.
She went out and hasn't returned.

1552
01:48:27,240 --> 01:48:29,160
We can't reach her
and are very worried.

1553
01:48:29,320 --> 01:48:30,880
When did you last
see her?

1554
01:48:31,040 --> 01:48:33,200
- About three hours ago.
- Right. This way.

1555
01:48:38,680 --> 01:48:42,240
We have a search and rescue system
for missing people.

1556
01:48:42,400 --> 01:48:44,720
But it's only been
a couple hours.

1557
01:48:45,200 --> 01:48:48,760
We only deploy rescue units
if it's been over 24 hours.

1558
01:48:48,920 --> 01:48:50,240
So what do we do?

1559
01:48:50,400 --> 01:48:52,120
I'm afraid
you'll have to wait.

1560
01:48:52,680 --> 01:48:56,440
Wait? I don't understand.
Wait for what?

1561
01:48:56,600 --> 01:49:00,440
Our 14-year-old is out in the streets.
Wait for what?

1562
01:49:00,600 --> 01:49:03,440
- Our system is...
- What do I wait for?

1563
01:49:04,120 --> 01:49:06,840
- To find her body?
- If you want to cause trouble...

1564
01:49:07,000 --> 01:49:10,800
- I'm looking for my daughter.
- Enough, calm down and let me talk.

1565
01:49:11,520 --> 01:49:13,600
It's your mom.
Pick up.

1566
01:49:14,320 --> 01:49:16,360
Hello, Mom.
Is Ezgi back?

1567
01:49:17,120 --> 01:49:18,600
No.
At the police station.

1568
01:49:18,760 --> 01:49:22,160
- Can we leave her name and a photo?
- Fine with me.

1569
01:49:23,280 --> 01:49:25,600
No need to get angry.
We're just doing our job.

1570
01:49:25,760 --> 01:49:26,640
Ezgi Firuze Tufan.

1571
01:49:29,040 --> 01:49:30,680
Could you do me a favor?

1572
01:49:31,680 --> 01:49:35,160
İsmail Karacabaș,
could you give us his address?

1573
01:49:35,320 --> 01:49:36,480
İsmail Karacabaș?

1574
01:49:37,280 --> 01:49:41,800
Even if I had it, I couldn't
give it to you. That's illegal. Sorry.

1575
01:49:43,880 --> 01:49:45,320
İsmail Karacabaș?

1576
01:49:46,200 --> 01:49:47,360
Let's go.

1577
01:49:52,080 --> 01:49:53,160
Call your brother.

1578
01:49:54,360 --> 01:49:55,600
Why would I do that?

1579
01:49:56,080 --> 01:49:57,320
Fine, I'll do it.

1580
01:49:58,960 --> 01:50:00,160
Salih, hello.

1581
01:50:01,040 --> 01:50:03,760
We're at the police station
and no news from Ezgi.

1582
01:50:03,920 --> 01:50:08,520
You know that Chief of Police?
Maybe he could help us with an address.

1583
01:50:16,720 --> 01:50:18,320
- Hi.
- Hi.

1584
01:50:19,800 --> 01:50:20,920
Did you talk to him?

1585
01:50:21,080 --> 01:50:24,720
I did. Even in the middle of the night,
he made a few calls.

1586
01:50:25,720 --> 01:50:30,560
You're in luck: There are only three
İsmail Karacabaș in Istanbul.

1587
01:50:31,080 --> 01:50:34,360
One is 55, one is 34,
and one is 23.

1588
01:50:34,520 --> 01:50:35,440
Twenty-three?

1589
01:50:35,920 --> 01:50:37,040
You'd prefer 55?

1590
01:50:38,680 --> 01:50:41,360
- Ezgi said he was a year older.
- And you believed her?

1591
01:50:41,520 --> 01:50:43,840
What was I to do?
Assume she's lying?

1592
01:50:44,560 --> 01:50:49,720
- So we have the 23-year-old's address?
- 55, 34 or 23. Pick one.

1593
01:50:51,520 --> 01:50:52,360
Drive.

1594
01:51:14,440 --> 01:51:15,640
Turn right there.

1595
01:51:17,040 --> 01:51:17,960
Right, right.

1596
01:51:28,120 --> 01:51:29,120
That must be it.

1597
01:51:32,320 --> 01:51:33,720
Go ahead.
I'll wait.

1598
01:51:34,560 --> 01:51:36,560
Otherwise
there might be an accident.

1599
01:51:48,000 --> 01:51:48,840
Could be here.

1600
01:51:55,720 --> 01:51:56,960
Is İsmail Karacabaș here?

1601
01:51:59,280 --> 01:52:00,120
İso?

1602
01:52:05,560 --> 01:52:07,040
- Yes?
- Are you İsmail?

1603
01:52:07,200 --> 01:52:08,160
What the hell?

1604
01:52:08,320 --> 01:52:09,320
Ezgi?

1605
01:52:13,920 --> 01:52:16,720
Oh, having a nice time.

1606
01:52:20,200 --> 01:52:21,080
Guys,

1607
01:52:22,400 --> 01:52:25,360
if you're hiding Ezgi from us,
you'll regret it.

1608
01:52:29,400 --> 01:52:31,160
Nothing.
Not here.

1609
01:52:33,400 --> 01:52:35,080
- We're just hanging...
- Shut up.

1610
01:52:35,640 --> 01:52:36,640
Don't talk.

1611
01:52:48,600 --> 01:52:50,920
Get up.
We're going home.

1612
01:52:58,240 --> 01:53:00,800
- You're lucky I don't kill you.
- She just turned up...

1613
01:53:00,960 --> 01:53:02,400
Shut up.

1614
01:53:03,160 --> 01:53:06,160
I'll kill you.
It was your duty to let us know.

1615
01:53:07,160 --> 01:53:08,280
Asshole.

1616
01:53:11,560 --> 01:53:12,560
Out.

1617
01:53:13,160 --> 01:53:15,640
- Stop crying.
- Aziz, enough now.

1618
01:53:15,800 --> 01:53:17,800
That it had to come to this...

1619
01:53:19,080 --> 01:53:20,120
Get in there.

1620
01:53:23,160 --> 01:53:25,360
You're no different
from my brother.

1621
01:53:56,760 --> 01:53:57,680
Underwear.

1622
01:54:49,640 --> 01:54:52,720
<i>Hey, handsome.</i>
<i>Talk like that and we've got a problem.</i>

1623
01:54:52,880 --> 01:54:58,120
<i>What's your intention? To help</i>
<i>someone or is it just a sneaky power play.</i>

1624
01:54:58,280 --> 01:55:00,320
<i>Even if it is,</i>
<i>what do you care?</i>

1625
01:55:00,480 --> 01:55:03,800
Because I'm no longer
part of your life.

1626
01:55:03,960 --> 01:55:07,880
The part you filled
was the part easiest to replace.

1627
01:55:08,520 --> 01:55:10,360
- Oh, wow.
- Yeah, oh wow.

1628
01:55:10,760 --> 01:55:12,560
Bingo and cut.

1629
01:55:12,720 --> 01:55:16,560
Lunch break, people.
Bon appetit to everyone.

1630
01:55:17,040 --> 01:55:20,360
- Ms. Derya, your food is in the trailer.
- Thanks, Șafak.

1631
01:55:22,640 --> 01:55:23,400
Thanks.

1632
01:55:24,360 --> 01:55:25,480
Welcome back.

1633
01:55:26,760 --> 01:55:28,200
- How are you?
- Fine, you?

1634
01:55:28,360 --> 01:55:30,000
Great, thanks.
And you?

1635
01:55:30,160 --> 01:55:32,280
We're doing our best, Mom.

1636
01:55:33,240 --> 01:55:36,960
- Are you hungry? Let's eat.
- No, I'm off to my taxi.

1637
01:55:37,120 --> 01:55:38,880
Here.
See you next week.

1638
01:55:39,040 --> 01:55:41,000
You could stay.
We can eat together.

1639
01:55:43,880 --> 01:55:44,920
Come on.

1640
01:55:59,680 --> 01:56:00,960
Good food.

1641
01:56:02,000 --> 01:56:03,880
They're really trying hard.

1642
01:56:04,640 --> 01:56:07,960
- You haven't eaten a thing, Aziz.
- I'm not hungry, thanks.

1643
01:56:09,560 --> 01:56:11,800
- When are you through today?
- In about two hours.

1644
01:56:11,960 --> 01:56:15,280
Cemre moved up my last scene
so I don't have to wait.

1645
01:56:15,880 --> 01:56:16,720
And you?

1646
01:56:17,880 --> 01:56:20,800
I have to return the car
and then save the world again.

1647
01:56:23,400 --> 01:56:25,000
You'll succeed, too.

1648
01:56:27,960 --> 01:56:29,440
The reviews are decent.

1649
01:56:30,080 --> 01:56:30,880
Reviews?

1650
01:56:31,520 --> 01:56:32,760
Of "Yellow Letters."

1651
01:56:34,760 --> 01:56:36,720
Especially
the metal detector scene.

1652
01:56:38,760 --> 01:56:42,040
- How about your ratings?
- Good, going strong.

1653
01:56:42,840 --> 01:56:45,280
But it's difficult,
the competition is stiff.

1654
01:56:52,840 --> 01:56:55,520
Mom,
what's the director looking through?

1655
01:56:56,400 --> 01:56:57,720
What do you mean?

1656
01:56:57,880 --> 01:57:01,440
It's not a camera. She peers through it,
then advises her DoP.

1657
01:57:03,280 --> 01:57:04,600
Let me introduce you.

1658
01:57:05,480 --> 01:57:07,920
And I need the wig fixed,
it won't sit properly.

1659
01:57:17,400 --> 01:57:18,360
And you?

1660
01:57:19,120 --> 01:57:22,240
- Can I hang out here?
- Sure.

1661
01:57:22,400 --> 01:57:23,640
Make yourself at home.
