Two Italians will be coming.

Tomorrow, early in the morning. Same place.

Very well. Have a safe journey.

Ali!

- Kismet! - Yes!

The one closest to us.

That one?

Great! Mess it up. Stink up the place.

Raif, you want some tea?

No tea for me.

Take these will you? They're God's creatures, too

What should I do with them?

Wait!

Hi there.

Hello. Any new orders?

Raif, these are today’s orders.

That Egyptian ship wants sheep for the sacrificial holiday.

I’ll sort that out.

Very well. Take this.

Ali. Pirates have gone wild in Aden again.

We'll be getting orders for razors and guns.

I'm off...

- Okay, hope it goes well. - Thanks.

Son, what you waiting for?

Go see if there are any customers at the shipyard.

This is what I get for trusting you. Getting fucked.

Where the hell were you?

- I only made it. - Nice one, jackass!

Everyone’s done their deals already. You be thankful to this.

Damn idiot! You even had the radio switched off.

Blondes sell a lot. Which one will it be?

Doesn't matter. I need 40.

Okay.

How old are you eh?

Erdem!

Try this for me will ya?

Not long now.

3 more months of work like this and I’ll bring the folks to Istanbul.

Kýsmet, ever notice how we always look from the same angle?

True. We can move near here. No problems.

Maybe my brother could work with us as well.

You ever wonder? Does this city look the same?

What about another angle?

What’s the matter? It looks fine from here.

Maybe you’ll see some chicks if you look from another spot.

Ali!

Where are you going damn it? Ali!

It’s a real drop, Ali! How do we get down from there?

Ali, what can you see? I’m really not fond of heights.

Screws, wire, wiring, engine pieces. This is it.

No way, Dad.

It’ll work out, son.

No more fooling around. You’ll be where I can see you.

I’ll open that new shop and you’ll be running it.

No more "I forgot," "I overslept," "got lost"... No more mockery.

You shall settle down. Run the business. That’s it.

Father, I can’t sit still.

Then walk around in the shop.

Stop talking nonsense.

Then you walk. It’s not the same.

Not the same view.

Ah. He’s here...

Captain! Come over here, brother!

Dude I’m scared. How can I climb up there?

Are they heavy?

No. Just decorations and all. You know, Christmas, etc.

- Raif was after you. - Why so?

Where were you? Take this.

Needs vaccinations. Take it to the shelter. The vet’s there today.

- You have the keys for the truck? - I need the truck.

It’s not far. Just walk!

Hold on. Who’s my nice Ejder!

Who’s a good boy?

Good kitty.

I’ve lost track of time...

Hey!

Go carefully. He’s your responsibility.

Drop him off home once you’re finished.

Hey you, hurry up. They’re waiting.

Almost done. Okay.

You really think this is going to work?

Who do you think you’re fucking?

Just say you haven’t got the balls.

Nonsense. I’m thinking of you.

I don't need your pity.

Fuck off.

What have you done? Where did you get the eggs?

This dick, he brought the bottle and the eggs...

Ali, just fuck off.

Your brother was an asshole.

You’re just the same.

What’s this you trickster?

Fuck off! Are you putting bets or not?

What the fuck are you doing? I’m leaving.

Okay.

Let’s see the dough.

Here’s 50.

Come on let’s see it.

Ready?

Watch me.

Cut the crap. What’s that? Some sort of magic? Just get on with it.

Watch! Here it goes!

Fuck off! Damn. I don't believe it.

Hey! Hey!

Wait up.

Hey! Over here!

Come on. Come on. Move it.

Kýsmet, you’re not digging it.

Nothings happening out here.

What isn’t?

Nothing is. Just nothing.

Chicken.

Listen Kýsmet, I’m leaving. I have someone to help me.

Signs are everywhere. They’re after me.

Who?

Dunno, but he’ll be back.

Dude where are you going? Why?

What’s wrong?

Ali. Does Raif know anything about this?

Listen man. I swear we can do this.

Not yet. You’re the first to hear.

Nicely done brother. Nice.

You’re a girl!

Yes.

Hey!

Come be with me!

Whoa! You following me?

I’ve had enough!

What’s this! You have to pull a knife right away?

Hakan go home.

Don’t get us in to trouble

Eda! I’m crazy for you!

I’ve had it chasing you. Don't you get it? I’m losing my mind.

- Please, let's do it one more time. - Hakan get off me.

We’d get married.

Hakan let go.

We’d have children.

Hakan!

- We’d be happy. - Hey brother!

Sorry I bothered you.

My truck's broken down. Could you help out?

What truck you fucker? Don’t you see we’ve got business here?

Don't know why. It just stalled.

I mean I tried. But you know, can’t push and steer at the same time.

Need a hand. Sorry, you’re the only one I could find at this time.

- Where is it? - Right over there. In the back street.

You come as well.

No need!

Can’t expect the girl to push the car.

We’d sort it out in no time.

Hakan welcome. Come in.

Aunt Leyla. Mum sent you this.

- Thanks. Come on in. We were eating. - Really, thanks but I’m full.

Couldn't open it.

Call the kid over.

What happened? He’s gone?

He’s in a hurry I guess.

Brother!

Raif, what are you doing here?

I was waiting for you in the office.

Did you see Ali yesterday?

No. I didn’t.

Please pull yourself together.

It’s not like you.

What are you talking about?

I’m doing just fine.

Let go. I’ve got it.

Let me take this then.

The office isn’t doing well without you. We’re losing a lot of work.

I’ll strangle him with this.

Please calm down.

Let go I said!

I’ll speak to him. I’ll convince him.

He wasn't home last night.

He’s really let go. The bastard...

Please let go of that. Let me do it.

Raif, if you want to open the shop immediately I could call my brother.

I mean, until Ali gets his head together.

I’m not a stranger.

Come. Let’s head to the office.

Hello.

Hello.

I’d like to thank you for last night.

Don’t mention it.

What are you doing here?

Waiting for you.

I was struck by lightning. I mean, you’re talking to a miracle.

Pleased to meet you. Bye now.

Listen up.

I keep seeing this dream. Something like a dream...

I keep seeing ships. Like the ones you draw.

- Lots of them. Vamos. - I’m not with you.

I mean I keep seeing them in reverse. Yours are always arriving.

I see mine departing.

So?

So... lots of ships. All going and coming. These are all signs.

What signs?

Signs... Meaning that you have the same thing on your mind.

There should be more, right? Like lives with more uncertainties...

I dunno, like more surprises. Where people have more happiness.

I mean, more than this life.

Look, I really have to go.

Why do you draw ships?

- Not sure. That’s how it is. - What do you mean?

That’s what I feel like doing.

So, there’s no special reason?

You think there is?

If that’s what you say.

Who left you?

What are you talking about?

Tell me. What harm can it do?

We shall find that ship together.

What do you think about this?

Got it new.

The girls took me shopping.

So many nice things.

Let’s go together tomorrow.

Get rid of these old rags.

Mother, only if you didn't dress up so much.

Can’t you not wear all this flamboyant stuff? Like old hags.

I like it. So does your father.

Mother!

Hey! What are you doing?

Stop it. Hey!

Leave me alone. It’s none of your business.

I said stop. Hey!

What’s it to you. Fuck off.

What is it? What happened?

Remember asking who left me...

My father. The son of a bitch is back.

Is it possible to be happy here?

We need to go. This place is nothing.

There’s more out there. You know that as well.

I don't want to go home.

Neither do I.

I wasn't cold.

No worries. My scarf was.

Come!

Come here. I’m going to show you something.

What nest is this?

Seagull.

Some are smaller.

I added the small ones.

You?

Yes. They’re pigeon eggs.

I’m doing an experiment.

- Stop! Don’t want your scent on them. - What scent?

Isn’t that what they say? Don't leave human scent on the eggs.

Actually they say that for kittens.

Whoa! Nice one with the knife.

I hadn’t seen the underneath.

You know what I’m really curious about?

When the pigeons hatch... will the gulls see them as their own?

Or will they just devour them?

I mean, I don't know.

Okay, forget that. What about the pigeons?

Will they think they’re gulls? Or will they know and fly away as pigeons?

They’ll open their eyes with the gulls. I think it’ll be confusing.

You know something else? Gulls actually never flap their wings.

What are you saying? Of course they do.

No they don't.

They ride airstreams.

Wherever the wind takes them. They only flap wings between 2 streams.

They reach their destination in the end.

Yes but it takes time.

They get old trying not to tire themselves. They perish in the end.

Get it?

Take a look.

And there’s this.

All the same. Identical.

It’s like a ship deck here.

They act as if in a gang.

So it’s the heights that have made you like this?

What do you mean?

I don't know. Strange...

What is?

Like imagining the ship in your dreams is real. Like that.

But it exists. It’s true. I even see the name: Vamos.

Signs are everywhere.

Why wont you believe?

What can I trust?

No need for trust. Believing is enough.

Look. It’s really easy. See.

Look! I’ll jump off from here and you’ll hold me.

I won’t. Get down.

I said I wont. Get down.

Do you know how green came about?

How?

Actually green does not exist. There’s blue and yellow.

Blue and yellow make green.

And it’s like that in reality.

The sun and water make grass.

I mean life is like that, too.

You’re right.

Of course you get it.

You wanted to find your father, right?

What's that got to do with it?

Let’s find this ship. Let’s go far away.

Of course we shall find it.

Vamos.

Vamos.

Come on!

Kýsmet! Where are you, damn it?

-I need your help. -Dude we need to load them. They won’t budge.

You’ll manage.

Where can we check the list of moored ships?

Listen! We’re moving the shop. You’re nowhere to be seen.

Look, Raif is very angry.

Dude I’m not doing this.

We’re leaving.

Don't be ridiculous.

He’s your father.

How will he stand on his feet again?

It’s not only you. You’re messing me up as well. How do we keep working?

What will be of this business?

Meet Eda.

Remember I mentioned her.

Dude, I’m working my ass off here. Working like a dog.

I’d appreciate things if I’d a father like yours. He’s done so much.

He got all those loans just for you.

What are you doing? Is this how you pay it back? What’s wrong with you Ali?

Now you come to say you’re going? Fine, fuck off.

While you're at it better kill him with your own hands before you go.

Eda!

Eda! Wait up.

Eda! Please stop!

You’re full of bullshit.

I don't believe a word you say.

Eda wait! What happened?

Did Kýsmet piss you off?

All you talk about is going away. You’re no different than the rest.

I’ve nothing to do with the likes of you. Just leave me alone.

How can you talk like this?

Don't you believe this shit?

Eda!

I said keep away. I’ll stab you, I swear.

I won’t abandon you. Promise.

Come on, man!

Okay I’m coming.

I’m glad you came to see me.

I came for mother’s sake.

I was lost, Eda. Forgive me.

I’d like to be your father again.

Get away! Last you were out getting toys, it must have taken some time.

Give me another chance. Let’s become one happy family again.

Please give me a chance.

We’re okay as it is.

- 3 of us. It would be so much better. - Don't call me daughter.

I failed, Eda.

You couldn't understand. Fair enough.

What a beautiful girl you’ve become.

Ali! Ali, I’ve chatted up the engineer girl.

We keep coming eye to eye. I stare and she stares back.

I confronted her just now. I said hello. She smiled back.

Trust me. I’ll have her in two weeks.

Nice!

Listen.

I was hard on you the other day.

But it’s for the better.

Ali. Come on, forgive me.

- There’s nothing to forgive... - Honest?

Good day.

Thanks.

- How’s work? - Fine, Father.

You okay, Kýsmet?

Gimme those, will you?

Kýsmet, the 2 inch collars are down there, on the right.

Don't forget to get the sample bolts from that Japanese ship.

Okay. I’m off. See you...

Good day.

Thanks.

Let’s go for a drink tonight.

Some other time.

I want to have a few drinks with my boy. We can do it again later.

Very well.

I’m off then. I’m at the office if anything crops up.

Okay.

Welcome Raif.

Thank you Haluk.

Business is good I hope.

Okay. We’re making ends meet.

Ali, my son. We’re here to have a nice night out. Father and son.

Welcome.

Thank you.

-Too bad you haven’t come here before. -True.

- Please, this way. - Sit down son.

Thank you. Pinar my dear.

Look, Raif is here.

Clear up the table and bring some clean plates, will you?

Very well, Dad.

Welcome, Uncle Raif.

Hello there.

Have you met my son Ali before?

No.

Hello, welcome. I’m Pinar.

Thank you.

Bring us a large Raký upfront. And a little cheese and melon to go with it.

Hurry now. Quick.

Bottoms up. Or you never see your loved one.

- Welcome. - Thank you. -Come in.

Could you open that?

What did you get up to?

- We had a stroll. - Dinner’s ready. Let me serve.

Mother!

How can you trust him?

How do you believe he won't walk off again?

I want us to be a family again.

Be happy.

- Mom. He’s lying. Open your eyes. - Eda, go to your room!

To your room I said!

It’s either him or me in this house.

Say something, Mother!

Eda, I’m begging you. Please! Do this for me.

- Eda, please don't go! - Let me go, Mother!

Eda please!

Mother, let me go.

I beg you.

Mother, let go of me.

At least tell me where to find you.

Fuck the hell out of our lives. You’ve ruined it enough already.

Fuck off! Let me go. Just let me go!

What would you like as appetizers?

Anything you want?

Not really.

Chilli paste, some of that chickpea puree and a salad.

Come on, son, order something.

I really don't care.

Everything okay here?

Great, thanks. Thanks.

I said order something.

- Grilled aubergines. - Damn, we’re out. The kid’s left as well.

Run to the shop and get a few aubergines. The chef will do them in no time.

No. It’s really not a problem.

I won't hear of it. It’s your first time here. We’d like to see you as a regular.

Hold on one minute.

We can’t have Pinar in the streets so late.

No way. My son will accompany her.

Very well.

It’s hard to make a living.

Smell the air.

What does it smell of?

Dunno. Just like air I guess.

Exactly.

I’m fed up of smelling like fish all the time.

I shower for an hour each day. I still reek.

No harm.

Hopefully we’ll be getting some help in the tavern soon.

I’m learning English, you know?

I’m looking for an office job.

Nice.

What do you do?

I’m with my father.

- How’s that? - Just working.

Maybe you’ll take over?

Dunno.

What do you mean?

You do what you have to. I’ll wait here.

I’m fine. I’ll make it to bed.

Ejder. My boy!

Ali!

I’m sorry.

You were right.

I’m just like everyone else.

I left you alone.

I used to feel tightness in my chest. Now I don't even feel that.

Don't you dream any more?

Vamos?

Don't know. You?

Yes.

- Really? - In my dreams.

Fuel guys are here. Was it Captain Cafer that sent them?

Don't know.

1.5 Lira per liter.

We’ll fill the barrel tomorrow. Come tomorrow night for the pick up.

Okay I’ll pass it on.

What’s he on about?

Not sure exactly.

The light is not enough. We need to get closer.

Shit!

What’s up, youngsters?

Come over here. Pass the rope.

- Cafer? - How do you know Cafer?

Who the hell are you?

What’s in the bag?

Just books.

What are you doing with the book?

We’re looking for a ship called Vamos.

What ship? Where?

I mean... everywhere.

What’s it got to do with Cafer?

Cafer? Who’s that?

You just mentioned his name.

Some skipper was asking for him.

Which one?

- Russian. - A Greek ship. Bulut...

Cafer’s the biggest fuel dealer around. What business do you have with him?

We really have no dealings with him.

We need to go.

What’s in there?

Spray paint.

What do you do with it?

Graffiti.

We were young once. Let’s walk.

Mahmut. This is done.

Who’s this?

He just left.

Maybe we’ll meet each other again.

What are we doing here if he’s gone?

Listen, the one who doesn't chase is just as bad as the one who leaves.

Nicely done, girl.

- Good job. - Thanks.

Let’s bring our eggs here too.

Okay.

Where did it go?

What’s this doing here?

A wish tree, eh?

He even wrote the brand of the car.

You have a pen?

Yes.

Look at this?

Come on now. Quick.

Thanks, Mahmut.
