You all sang very well, children.
Especially you, Ayse.

Dear children, can't remember
how long I've lived in this village.

Omer stop your foolish behaviour
at once or I'll come over there.

See, forgot what was about say.

So, you all seem quite out of control
on this last school day...

...but wonder whom you'll be
teasing with when I'm gone.

Are you leaving, teacher?

Yes am, indeed.

This is what life is all about.
Everything has a beginning and an end.

And you know that I'm not going to
another school, either.

This is my last day as a teacher.

I'm having my retirement.
Finally, I'm getting rid of you.

But life goes on for you.

Pay attention to your new teacher.

Work hard.

No matter what the
conditions may be... l repeat...

No matter what the conditions
may be never give up your school.

Now, your parents can take you
away from the school to make you

work in the fields, vineyards
and gardens. They can force you...

...to get married for the dower.
This is for the girls.

Don't let them do it.

Stand against it. if need be get beaten,
revolt, run away from your houses...

...but go on with your education.

Don't believe anyone who tell you
that this is your unavoidable fate.

Don't forget that you're the
only one who can defeat this fate.

Education means salvation from
ignorance and understanding the world.

It's the ability to change your destiny.

Look at these pictures.

Look at these people. Read over and
over again what they've written down.

They'll show you
the way in my absence.

Now gather before the blackboard.

Come Dilan, Dilan get in your place
boy. Stop pushing one another.

Hey, Omer. Who am speaking to?
Go over there, girl.

Look at me... Hey, don't budge.
Look over here.

You'll look at me, alright?
I'm shooting.

Omer, come here. I'd taught
you how to use the camera.

You'll press this button here, okay?
Now, come in between you.

Now, everybody look at Omer.
Come on.

Got it.

Look sister, listen...

if you'll keep on interrupting
better leave.

No no, please go on.

Get smart. This place is a ruin. You
need a lot of money to pull it together.

No one can offer you as much as do.

Excuse me for a moment.

Welcome Dunya.

Welcome Dunya.

Come, sit over here.
have a business with this lady.

I'll be with you in a couple of minutes.

You know better than do
the rents around here.

Let me think
about it for a while, sister.

Don't take too long, Hashmet.

Must see if I'm doing the right thing.
If not, I'll check the alternatives.

Alright, goodbye.

Welcome, sister Dunya.
How are you? ls everything alright?

I'm okay, brother Hashmet.

Arrived today. We settled
in a hotel. How about you?

You know, survive.
You've brought your daughter.

Have nowhere to leave her.

Did you find her a baby-sitter?

The recepionist's wife
is a cleaning lady.

Tuck a few bucks in her hand.
She'll stay with her at nights.

Good Muhammed!
Look here. What can order you, sister?

Don't want anything. I'd been
drinking tea the whole day.

Or, you can get me a glass of water.

You know, I've been doing
this water cure. Four liters a day.

Bring us water.

Everything's ready for tonight.
have arranged your baglama player.

You already know the saz players.
Those guys are really good.

Well, we have also
talked about what you'll get.

Brother, what about escorting?

What about it?

You know, brother.
don't do it any more.

Wait a minute. thought
we had an understanding, gal?

We didn't talk about it thoroughly.

What do you mean "thoroughly"?

You know that the money make
depends on the drinks.

Actually, can't make shit any more.
This place is dead.

Beyoglu is dead for us. Night clubs
are now in the suburbs. In Aksaray.

We're not welcome here any more, gal.

Beyoglu addresses to
the upper class, the

so-called intellectuals
and students.

The fashionable momma just
talked to was a restaurant owner.

She wants to rent this place and
turn it into some kind of night club.

A club for the rich. Glorious stuff.

If you knew her offer you'd lose your
mind. You'd leave everything behind.

So don't push me 'cause I'm looking for
an excuse to get the fuck out of here.

All you have to do is to drink a couple
of drinks. Then, you wonder why...

...Russian women are
better than you.

Yes, it's me.

Are you sure she's in lstanbul?

Where's she staying?

You don't know.

Can we find her?

Thanks.

Alright, I'll take the first bus.

Thank you. Thank you very
much. I'm on my way.

Good day. Do fill it up?

Separation is a fiery arrow

No word from my coy love

My trouble is greater than all

My trouble is greater than all

Is it possible not to feel the burn

Mountains, mountains, mountains

Welcome...

Thank you very much.
Not at all.

Thanks, thanks.
Thank you very much.

I'll have a smoke. Do you have a light?

So, where do you come from?

Where to, madam?

Findik Palace Hotel.

Do you want to drink
anything before that?

Hey move it man, move it!

How much?

Ten million.

What are you looking at?

- You can't turn away from such beauty.
- Fuck you, asshole!

Thank you, sister.

Oh my God.

Why did you bother?
I'm really embarrassed.

Please, don't mention it teacher.
Godspeed.

God protect you from all evil.

Let me kiss your hand mother.

Mukhtar, take good
care of my mother, or else...

Godspeed, teacher.

Thank you.

Go in peace, teacher.
God protect you.

Thank you.

Don't forget us, teacher.

Could?

Farewell, teacher.

Farewell, brother Mustafa.

Don't withhold your prayers...

...from us, grand old dervish.

You don't need my prayers, teacher.

You're the grand old dervish yourself.

You are the true father of our children.

You are the mentor.

Grandness suits you best. Godspeed.

Mukhtar, as soon as rent a house in
lstanbul I'll let you know my address.

Want you all to write to me.

You'll write me about your school.

If hear anyone leaving school,
I'll come back to punish.

Had this strong belief that the
long years I'd spent as a teacher...

...offered me everything.
had seen a lot of things.

Had seen pain, death, torture...

...evil, back-stabbing,
unfaithfulness...

...and was left alone. had felt love,
love unreturned, had fallen in love...

...tasted disappointment. Villages were
burned down, parents and children...

...were killed an overnight.

And had stood there watching.

Custom murders were comitted
before my eyes...

...epidemics
had taken away my students...

...and had cried desperately.

Even God had forsaken us.
Doomed us to loneliness.

In the end, would become a
sinner or a saint.

Don't know what I've become ...

...but as was about to leave
Alaca Village...

...thought that there
was nothing left to discover in life.

That had closed all the books and...

...finished my trade with world.

How fool of me!

Well, know that this is an old saying
but need to mention it.

Life is full of surprises till the end.
Till the very end.

You got it... l got it...

Go play inside kids.
You gave us a headache.

You're a mess.

Got the ball. Stop... stop...
l got the ball, got it.

Children, wait for a while
so that we can finish the laundry.

Swear it was a double five.

Swear to God.
What should say more!

Why do you look at me like that?
Veysel, am lying now?

Don't stare at me or I'll break your
head and burn down your cafe.

There's not a single
strand of black hair

left on your head but
you're still a liar...

and a filthy brawler. Is it worth
all the cheating for one game?

Don't be harsh on my friend.

He may be a liar
but not much of a cheater.

- Is it over?
- It's over.

Thank God. We meet
at last. Oh, brother.

Take it easy.
You're crushing my bones.

Welcome Nazim.
Come, have a seat.

Welcome Nazim.
Come, have a seat.

15 years. Boy, 15 years.

So, nothing has changed
much in 15 years.

Everybody is were put them.

- Welcome, brother Nazim.
- Thank you, Fikret.

Enjoy it.

We got old. We here,
you in the foreign land.

Life is almost over.
What else is left?

My cafe that idiot's taxi, and your
house, inherited from your father.

Looked at it on my way here.
couldn't get in.

Tenants and children
were inside.

It's like yesterday when we played
where they play today.

Life goes on fast.

Cut the crap, Mr. Retired.

You didn't mention about
your arrival in the letter.

Couldn't you fix me a house?

Come on. My name's Chock. There's
nothing can't fix in the world.

Why don't you stay with the kids?

Memet is married with children.

Nor can stay with my daughter.

Then, I'm used to being alone.

Is it all taken care of?
Did you rent it?

Even paid for three months
in advance. You owe me.

You're nothing without me, anyway.

Come on, let's see the house.

Want to be sure
you won't complain later on.

You were obstinate
when you were young...

...you get even worse
as you get older.

Your retirement will
be unbearable.

Oh, here we go again.
Blah, blah, blah.

You remember Lady Agavni?

Lady Agavni?
How can ever forget her.

The lady passed away last month.
May she rest in peace.

You remember her nephew Kirkor.

He came here from Paris
to sell the house.

Get to the point, man!

Alright. In short, Kirkor couldn't sell
the house and he had to go back.

He had to rent the house
with all the furniture.

Thus, your protective angel,
jumped on him...

...and said "Listen Kirkor,
must rent"...

Alright, cut it out. got it.
You're exaggerating again.

That's the house.

God. Everything's
like in the old days.

Used to come here to steal
candies when was a kid.

What would become of you
was obvious from that day.

Lady Agavni is going to charge
you for that in the next world.

It's okay with me as long
as she didn't in this world.

Let me take a look at the kitchen.

You haven't seen
the kids yet, have you?

No, haven't.

We're on sale.
The prices are reasonable.

These are installment prices anyway.
say don't miss it.

These are installment prices anyway.
say don't miss it.

- Welcome, sir. Come in.
- Child, I'd like to see Memet.

Father? Excuse me.

- Hi Memet.
- Welcome.

I'm pleased to see you, son.

Ali, can you attend to the lady
please?

Right away, sir.

Come on, let's go over there.

- When did you arrive?
- Today, a short while ago.

Why didn't you call us, father?
We could meet you.

Why bother? You've got work to do.

Was surprised to see you
before me all of a sudden.

Couldn't tell you,
and so you were...

- Does Piraye know?
- No. didn't tell her, either.

- Wait...
- guess she changed her number.

What do you want to
drink, father?

Just had tea in
the cafe with my friends.

- Your friends come first, huh?
- stopped by the cafe...

Piraye, hi. This is Memet.

How are you, dear? Fine fine.

Well, father has come.

No, mean my real father.
Our father.

Yes, just now. Okay, will. See you.

How is Piraye?

Who? Oh, Piraye.
Fine. She's fine, dad.

So?

Retired.

- So, you're back for good.
- Yes.

- Well, that's good. it was time.
- Right.

You have improved the business.

Well, try to do some things.

OK. better go now and
you go back to your business.

Would you like
to come visit us tonight?

Alright.

Huh? We can have dinner together
so Piraye can also see you.

- OK.
- Have you got a place to stay?

Took care of it, son.
rented a house.

How marvelous, you're fast.

Oh, I'll give you the address now.

- Do you need anything, father?
- Thanks, son. Your concern will do.

Someone entered the class. God,
it was teacher Rifat.

And of course, suddenly, barn!

God bless his soul.
This is to teacher Rifat.

Your father used make us suffer.

You can't show me a single
person he didn't make suffer.

Once literally shit my pants
out of fear.

He pulled my ears so strongly
that they stretched about half a meter.

May he rest in peace. He has
put great deal of work on us.

Otherwise, we would
all be tramps today.

At least he succeeded in
making a man out of his son.

Here's to your father.
To teacher Rifat.

To teacher Rifat!

Feel uneasy!

Don't say.

Need to find a job.

Look, if this is about money

don't want any loan from you,
told you.

Get your hand out of
your pocket.

Hey, then why are you making
a fuss? What do you want?

A job until get my bonus.
Until they put me on pension.

Don't be ridiculous. What do you
think you can do at your age?

You can't give special courses.

Nobody would want
a village teacher.

You can't go for mukhtar's office
because the elections have passed.

You can't be a peddler. it wouldn't
be appropriate for you.

It'd bring shame on your father. So?

In fact, think of opening
a book store or a stationery.

But you see, have to wait
until get the bonus.

Anyway, the only thing
can do is teaching...

...and in the school days had
driven taxi with you, that's all.

That was for the book
money of course.

Look, don't take this on the
wrong side but you can drive my cab...

...for a while, if you like to.
We could share the money.

Don't talk nonsense. I've been
out of lstanbul for the last 15 years.

During this time it's
size must have doubled.

- Don't know anywhere!
- Nobody knows anyway, man!

Oh my God, I'm late. My son
is waiting for me to go join them...

...for dinner. need to go.
See you tomorrow.

Give him our regards.

- We are clearing the table.
- Alright, sweetheart.

- Let me help you.
- can do it.

It's just a couple of dishes,
anyway. hope you enjoyed it.

Very much, dear. Do you
want some more, father?

No son, I'm full!

So you want to be
a computer engineer?

You grandfather asks
you a question, boy.

Yes!

Come father,
let's sit over there.

Everything was delicious.
liked it a lot.

How would you like
your coffee, father?

Thanks Piraye. won't have any.

Otherwise, can't sleep at nights.

Would like mine
with medium sugar.

Come, father.

The last time you had visited lstanbul
was when Kaan was born presume.

Correct.

So it's been 15 years.

- Your father retired, right?
- Yes. He's back for good.

Do you know
where he plans to stay?

Guess he rented a house.
Why did you ask?

Just wanted to know. Well, if he's
thinking about staying with us...

...you know that we don't
have enough space.

Father, did you think
about this house issue?

Son, told you. I've already
rented a house, relax.

No, father. I'm talking
about my grandfather's house.

Brother, your coffee

Thank you, dear.

Where do you live?

She's our neighbour.
She's also in Florya.

- Do you live alone?
- Yes, father.

Fortunately, you
didn't have a child.

That's why we
got divorced, father.

Father, what are we going to do
about the house?

The contractor's sick of asking
about it every single day.

Son, really don't know. How
can we ask that poor people to leave...

...the house, saying "get out,
we will build a housing development"?

We will do it very well. Father,
they are not paying the rent.

Look, we all need
those appartments.

If you hesitate leave it to me.

Swear can throw
them out in a month.

You can't do it like that.

As if clearing the country
from the invasion forces.

But that's what they are. They have
invaded that beautiful mansion.

Sorry but you're a little responsible
for that, too.

And those guys are exploiting
your feelings You have to decide now.

Have written to you about it so
many times, you didn't even reply.

It's nice to get letters from
your son even if it's for the house.

Here it is! They've increased
the fuel prices again.

Can't understand why they always
have to increase the fuel prices.

Why the raki, first? Why is it?

Can you please stop bellowing in
the morning. still couldn't wake up.

Fikret, be quick. People are waiting
for tea. Couldn't you brew it yet?

Come, come here.
Come sit next to me.

What do you want to drink?

How did it go last night?

Never mind. it was OK.

Thought about it the whole night.
want to drive the cab.

Until get bonus.
Night job would be fine.

The roads will be isolated.
Anyway, can't sleep.

Man, are you alright?
You look really pale.

Last night was a little unpleasant.
May be I'm exaggerating it.

- It can be my blood pressure.
- Blood pressure? Let's go to Berrin.

Who's Berrin?

Is sister Berrin at home?
Is she at home?

God damn you, Atakan.
You frighten me each time.

Girl, look who's here.
You don't remember him, do you?

This is Nazim, son of teacher Rifat.
From primary school.

Do you remember?

Oh, hello.

Hello.

Of course, remember.
But he wouldn't remember me.

Was in first grade
when you were in fifth.

Know you. You used to read
poetry on national holidays.

And we used listen to it
with admiration.

What's wrong?

- Berrin is a widower.
- What's it to me?

What do you mean? You're sick
and get you a beautiful widower

pharmacist but still
can't cozy up to you.

Didn't you see how concerned
she was? You have high blood pressure.

You have to be careful
with your health Nazim.

Say one more word and I'll beat
the hell out of you. You vulgar man.

Here it is. live on this.

From now on it belongs
to the both of us.

Her name is Ceylan.
But don't tell it to anyone.

Even my wife doesn't know
her name. Take good care of her.

Don't push her too much.
Let her go by herself.

Don't take drunks.

If you see a whore, floor the pedal.
Don't get involved with bastards.

They can get you in trouble.

If you don't know the address
of your customer, try to learn

the directions without
giving it away.

You can say something like "which
route do you want me to take."

Don't interrupt quarreling couples.
You like giving advice. Don't do it.

Alright then. Welcome.

Excuse me pal, which way
leads to Karakoy?

Go straight

Five is enough. This is too much.
Take these and give me the five.

Come in.

Come in, ma'am!

Ma'am I'm talking to you!

- Is it vacant?
- Hey!

Hey, hey! What's going on?

Don't you see the line here?
Are you blind?

Get out.

What? can take any
cab want.

There's a line.

We waited here the whole night.

Who told you to wait. God!
Are you bandits? Are you waylayers?

Swear I'll call the police chief.
He was my guest tonight.

Go on, call him, slut.

Look, pop. Get this slut out
of the car and beat it.

Or, we are going to
break your legs.

Hey, hold it right there.
What kind of men are you?

Is this how you treat a woman?

You indecent men. Who do you think
you are to break my leg, huh?

Look, pop.
Don't make me angry.

Hold on a minute guys,
wait a minute. said hold it...

- Is this brother Atakan's cab?
- Yes!

Let them go.

- Why is that?
- No way.

Said let them go.
Don't touch our brother.

Let it be his way for tonight.

This is for Atakan brother.
But don't change the line again.

Now beat it. Go on.

Who's Atakan?

Haven't you ever heard
of the name Atakan?

Atakan is a legend man.
Atakan the Chock.

He was the toughest
driver in lstanbul.

Fucking bastards.
They are city bandits.

Did you see the face of the guy
when mentioned about the chief?

Those are all worthless
sons of bitches.

Excuse my language brother,
but got exteremly angry.

As if have to get in his trifling car.
Asshole. Excuse me, brother.

Not at all!

The cops should beat the living
hell out of them in the station.

- Without taking a break...
- Excuse me, ma'am. Where to?

- Did you talk to me?
- Where are we going?

Haven't told you? I've got
garrulous again. I'm sorry.

To Ora Kule.

What was the address?

- Oh, don't you know Ora Kule?
- don't.

What kind of a cab driver are you?
Really, where are you from?

Excuse me, sister. I'd been living
out of lstanbul for quite a long time.

Of course, you're right.
That's not an excuse.

Never mind, brother. I'll tell you
the directions.

Okay. How much, brother?

- Actually, don't know.
- What do you mean, you don't know?

Don't know, forgot to turn on the
taximeter in that commotion, sister.

Never mind.
Something's off tonight.

Don't worry about it, brother. it's
alright. it's not the end of the world.

See many insensitive people in a day.
At least, you feel ashamed.

Oh, you blushed. You're very cute.
Here, take this.

I'll feel bad if you don't.
paid the same the previous night.

Tonight you got yourself
in trouble because of me.

And also you stood up against
that bozo. You're a real man.

- Have a nice day.
- You, too.

Tomorrow- mean today can you
pick me up from the hotel at 11 pm?

Dear Mukhtar, how are you?
How are the kids?

Missed you all.
Give my address to the kids...

owe you the rent. You can cut
it from my share.

No way. I'll take it
when you get your bonus.

So, the guy realized
that it was my car, huh?

He said "brother Atakan, " huh?

I've taken you lightly Chock.
You're the king of this jungle.

What king are you talking about?
That was long ago.

Now there's only the name left.

Now, I'm dead scared of getting
into a fight because of a quarrel.

What if got beaten? What if people
take me a chicken instead of a wolf?

If lose the fur,
the legend will be over.

That's why keep
away from trouble.

In the old days used to
jump right in the middle of it.

Now turn my head and keep walking.

In fact, this kind of
hurts my pride.

Take this. it's old but it'll do.

If you get yourself into trouble you
can call me. You are in lstanbul now.

Helloo... Merhaba,
good evening, guten morgen.

Good evening. To the club, right?
Where picked you up yesterday.

Brother, if you have time
let's have a roll sandwich.

Don't misunderstand me. I've got
my daughter a hamburger for dinner.

But don't put that thing in my
mouth and now I'm starving.

Do me this favor before
starve to death, huh? it's on me.

So brother, as you can see
I'm shit out of luck.

You didn't tell me your name.
What was your name?

Nazim.

I'm Dunya. Please have
a sandwich, brother Nazim.

Feel uneasy eating like this before you.
don't want to make your mouth water.

Thank you. I've eaten
before got out to work.

OK, I'm just telling you.
Oh, where was ...

got divorced. Well did,
but what am going to do now?

My daughter was
six years old then.

Now she's seven.
No, eight. Seven. Yes, seven.

You see, I'm back
in the old business.

I'm not a bad singer. don't
sing shouting at the top of my voice.

Have a touching voice. But
of course, club life deteriorates it.

But if can manage to hold on
in a ballad bar, it'd be very different.

They are tasteful places.

You just do your thing
over there. That's all.

But it's a little difficult after
this point.

- What's your real job?
- Driving.

Bullshit. Your real job is different.

A cab driver doesn't wear a tie.

Also you're way too polite.
Please tell me the truth.

Teaching.

Come on.

- Swear to God.
- Then why are you driving a taxi?

That's life!

That's life. Right. it makes us do
strange things.

Are you married?

Divorced long time ago.

Just like me then.
Do you have children?

Two. A girl and a boy. But they're
grown up. even have grandchild.

How wonderful! if your kids are
that grown up, then why do they let...

...you get in trouble with those
bastards instead of looking after you?

Don't they pity you?

Oh, I'm late. Let's go, brother. Bill.

May?

No, you may not.

Please don't be any later than
3 o'clock, brother.

Where to, sir?

NishhhNishhasstsh

Told you already! We're going
to Nishasstashh.

Pull over.

Stop, stop, stop.

The blue eyes are leaving me

The blue eyes are leaving me

Welcome, sir. Do you
want to take a seat?

I'm Dunya's driver.
I'm waiting for her.

But the show is still on.

Guess it won't take too long.

- Alright. I'll let you know.
- Thank you.

Welcome, sir.
Do you want to take a seat?

- What would you like to drink?

my table after her show.

Light the torch, let us go blue eyes

Thank you very much. Thank you.
Good evening. Thank you.

- Why are you here?
- To take you with me.

- Take me where?
- To our house.

We got divorced.

- You'll badly influence your daughter.
- What are you talking about?

Come on. Don't get me started.

Get your hands of me.
Fuck you!

Watch your mouth, or else I'll break it.

- Sir, behave yourself.
- Shut up. Let's go!

- Let go!
- said, behave yourself.

What are you doing?
Leave her alone.

What's wrong gal?
Are you okay?

I'm okay. I'm okay. Don't worry.

I'm okay. Nothing's wrong,
brother Nazim.

Brother Nazim...no.

Something's stuck into my body.
Brother! Oh, mother, mother.

Help me, brother.

This woman is hurt. Help. Heeyy!

Stop, she's wounded!
She's wounded!!!

Don't be afraid, girl.

Excuse me. ls the wounded lady
your aquaintance? She woke up.

Thank you, Nazim brother.

If you weren't there, was dead.

You were right on time.

Brother, I'll ask something of you.

Help me, beg you. That was my
ex-husband I'd been talking about.

He is a real pyschopath.

If he can find the club
he'll find the hotel, as well.

Don't let that bastard Halil
kidnap my daughter.

What can do, girl?

This is about your family. mean
if there's a problem go to the police...

No, brother. You won't
be involved in this.

Just let Hasmet, the owner
of the club, know the situation.

He'd help me. don't have
his number. Do you think...

...would bother you
if had number?

Just tell him about the situation
and give him the hotel's address.

I'll call the hotel, anyway.

There won't be a problem as
I've paid for the week in advance.

Hasmet, too, is like a father to me.

Just let him know.

Tell him to look after my daughter
until get out of the hospital.

I'll sell this store.
If not, I'll rent it.

What's this? Why all the
sluts and assholes find me?

Why am so ill-fated?

Sweep carefully, boy. Can't you
see those broken pieces of glass?

Helloo! What is it?
What do you want?

I'd taken Dunya to the hospital.
I'm...er... the taxi driver.

If you came here for the taxi fee,
you'll have to get it from that broad.

Or, is she dead?

No she's not. don't
want any money, either.

She has a request from you
and came here to tell you that.

What bores the lady?

She's in some kind of a trouble
with that man. She needs your help.

- It's about her daughter.
- You know what they say, pop.

The water jug brakes
on it's way to the river.

The jug is broken but it has also
turned the store into a ruin.

Look at the damage
she has done.

And now the bitch asks for help?

Won't help.

Bring her bag and the rest
of her stuff and give it to pop.

If see her around here again,
swear to God I'll break her legs.

Did Dunya call you?

Came here to
pick up her daughter.

Wake up, girl. Wake up.

Come on, we are
going to your mother.

Yes. No, it's no big deal.
can be a little late...

...don't worry.

I'm hanging up.
We can talk when come back.

Don't be afraid honey. Just a scratch.

Uncle, we have taken care of the
patient. The wound is clean.

Everything looks good. You
can take her out of the hospital.

Oh, I'll write a prescription.
We'll take the stitches in a few days.

Oh girl, my one and only...

So, Hasmet has put all the
burden on your shoulders, huh?

Bastard. He's still a good man.
He took care of everything quickly.

That fellow didn't show up, right?

What fellow?

Halil. My ex-husband!

No. You have your
clothes and shoes here.

You can change.

God curse you, Halil.

Hope you'll die and rot in hell.

But wait and see what Hasmet will
do to you.

This time you've got
yourself in big trouble.

If were you, wouldn't
trust Hasmet that much.

I'll give you a ride.

Brother, please get back to your
work. need to think for a while.

Think about what?
In your situation? No way.

I'll be alright. We caused
a lot of trouble. Brother...

You've been up all night.

Pity you. can deal with the rest.
just need to pull my head together.

Please go, brother.

Okay. Alright.

Take care.
Goodbye, little miss.

What's wrong, brother?

Do you have anywhere to go?
Any relatives or friends?

Any place to stay?

Not really...

mean no.

Then, who'll take care of you?

You're wounded. You need to dress
the wound and stuff. Who'll do it?

God watches over me since was
born. Never mind, we'll be fine.

Come on.

So, Hasmet turned up to
be a real swine, huh?

And thought was
a good judge of men.

Who the hell is he? He's going to
break my legs, my ass!

Be quiet. You're wounded
and you feel pain.

You're bleeding!

We need to find someone
to dress your wound.

- I'm fine.
- No. Go inside and lie down.

- I'm okay.
- I'll be back in no time.

Nevcivan will eat dust.

Don't you have anything better to do
than gambling?

What's up? You're talking sweet again.

What was that you said
on the phone all about?

There was a fight in the club.

A woman got hurt
and she has a daughter.

Her husband is a troublemaker.
She has nowhere to go...

...so brought
her home, okay?

Are you happy now that
you know everything?

What happened Nazim?
Is it you high pressure again?

How did this happen?

By accident. She tripped over the chair,
fell on the glass table...

...it broke and stuck in her body.

A few centimeters higher
and it was in her heart.

What is the lady to you?

Let me put it this way.
was passing by.

Where?

Where the accident occurred.
Cab driving is a strange job.

You can come across
with anything, anytime.

That was one of them.
Dunya is a stranger in lstanbul.

Of course, somebody had to help her.

Did my duty as a responsible
citizen.

Don't skip the antibiotics.
If bleeding recurs call me.

How much do we owe you, Berrin?

You owe me nothing.
Just buy the medicine.

Thank you, we caused you trouble.

Not at all. did my duty
as a responsible citizen.

And you shouldn't exaggerate your duty.
There are so many strangers...

...and wounded people in lstanbul
that it is impossible for a cab...

...driver to deal with them all.

Goodbye.

Are you hungry? What do
you want to eat? Huh?

Think you didn't like me at all.
You don't make a sound, girl.

She doesn't speak.

What do you mean she doesn't speak?

She doesn't. One day his father
attacked me. The house was...

...like a war ground.
The man had gone crazy.

Melek got very scared when
she saw her father acting like a maniac.

Her eyes got wide open.
She went into shock.

She'd never seen Halil acting
like that before.

That day she became mute.
She was about four years old.

Maybe three.

Or, was it two? No, three.

Well, didn't you take her to a doctor?

Of course, did. showed
her to every kind of doctor.

From child doctors to shrinks.

When they couldn't find a cure,
showed her to hodjas.

You won't believe but even tried
Mother Mary's blessed water.

She didn't say a word.
Then, we got used to it.

Thank you, Mustafa.

Why did you dress us down? it's said
that you have a woman in the house.

You're such a gossip.

A gossip, a trickster and a liar.

You should be ashamed
of yourself.

- Won't work tonight.
- Why not?

Have a woman in the house...
remember. God's sake!

What did he look like?

He had white hair.

- A driver, huh?
- Yes.

He left taking the girl with him.

Don't you really know where he's gone?

No, really don't know.

What kind of a hospital is this?
How can you not know?

Buzz off.

Get your hands of me, you dick.

I'll show you who's the dick,
you son of a bitch.

I've given you her hotel's address.
What else do you want, you maniac?

She's not there. She has left. How
many more times should say?

What's it to me if you've the wrong
address. Ask the fucking woman...

He used to drive Atakan's cab.
He was on the night shift.

But haven't seen him
since that unpleasant night.

Well, where can find Atakan?

Atakan is from Samatya.
He hangs around the cafe.

Samatya...Thank you.

By the way, to whom does
that medal belong to? What is it?

To my grandfather. He was
a veteran of the War of independence.

What about your father?

My father was a teacher, too.

Oh, just like you. Did ever tell
you that loved my primary school...

...teacher the most.
mean after my mother.

No.

Come here, honey.

Wouldn't it be better
if you didn't go out?

I'm bored to death, bother Nazim.
need to get some fresh air.

Do you want tea?

If it's still hot...Let me ask you
something.

Does Atakan hang around here?

- Yes, he does.
- Where's he?

He's taken his car to repair shop.

It's said that he works a driver.
In fact, I'm looking for him.

Ask it to Atakan. Bring tea over here.

Do you want to have fish for tonight?

Well, we'll go to the
greengrocery with Melek.

Hello, Nazim.

What's up, Mustafa?

Can help you, ma'am?

How's the fish? What do you suggest?

How's it going? Good?

Nothing missing, huh?

Look at its gills...it's crimson.

Okay, okay, I've got it. it's fresh.

Do you want me
to give you an apple candy?

Thank you...

Melek?

- Let her go!
- Why is that? She is my daughter, too.

- Let go.
- Who the hell are you? Fuck off...

- What's your problem, pal?
- Get away from me!

Let the child go. Let her go.
Let her go, you bastard.

Hey, everyone get back.
It's my daughter you're taking away!

Go away! Or I'll burn
this place down!

The cops are here.

- Hey! Let the kid go!
- Now, you'll get it good.

- They attacked me, officer.
- Shut up, you liar!

- Offensive though at fault.
- God will punish you.

Listen officer, it's all his fault.
He spread death in the club.

She's lying officer.
She attacked me first.

No, she didn't. You're the one
who's lying. was there.

The poor girl was scared to death.
He broke into the club like a bandit.

If it wasn't for you officer, had
already ripped this clown's head off!

Chock!
Everybody keep quite. Now...

Officer, this man is a psycho, a maniac.

Who am speaking to, gal?
Hey, be silent.

- Are you Halil?
- Yes.

If ever see you around this girl
again, if you ever annoy her or...

...threaten her I'll put you in jail.
She is not your wife.

But the child is mine.
She is taking her away from me.

It's the court order.
This woman is an escort.

She is fallen.
But her daughter won't be.

Hey, you are fallen.
So, won't you put this dog in jail?

Assault, child intimidation,
wounding...

Won't you put him in jail?

Do you want me
to put you in jail instead?

You claim that she doesn't
give you your daughter..

Then sue her and prove your claim
in the court before the laws.

But waylaying and threatning
is not the right way.

Otherwise, I'll hang you by the foot.

If get one more complain
about you, I'll bring you down.

Now, get out of my sight. All of you.

Halil, you wait.

You're walking a thin line, gal.
Be careful. You may fall.

Always walked a thin line.
I'll fall if need be.

He got away with it again.

Did you hear what the officer said?
If he does it one more time...

What else does he expect
that bastard to do?

- What a troublemaker.
- Man...he is a real psycho.

He looks mad.

Man, you're in deep trouble.
know that much.

What's that supposed to mean?

The woman is a rascal
and the man is a total lunatic.

Be careful, don't get crushed in
between. say this, as a friend.

God damn you.
You filthy son of a swine.

I've got you involved in this, too.
don't know what to say.

What a scandal. That mean bastard.

Don't open the door immediately.

First, ask who it is. Only God knows
what this man's plotting.

Don't open it.

Who is it?

It's me father, Memet.

Welcome, son.

I'm pleased to see you.
Father, can we talk?

Of course. What's wrong?
hope all is well.

Father, what's this scandal all about?

What scandal? What happened?

What else can it be? All the
neighbourhood is talking about...

...the girl you've taken into your
house. it's said...

...that her husband has made a scene
and you've been to the police station.

- Is that true?
- Yes, it is.

Don't you feel ashamed of yourself?

Hold it right there, Memet!

You do not have the right
to talk to me like this.

I'm just trying to help someone
who's having a hard time.

Know that it's something
difficult for you to understand.

As you're specialized
in sales and contractors.

We messed your life, brother Nazim.

My health is improved. We'll
be gone in a couple of days.

Don't you worry.

Lock the door. Don't open it
to anybody. First, ask who it is.

Alright?

Good night. May God
watch over you.

Did you set an eye on this woman?
Any love affair?

What are you saying? A young
woman taking shelter in my house...

...is all. She has a kid, too.
How can you even think about it?

Surely, can. She's a beautiful
woman, you're single. So?

Age is not important, yet again...

This woman is not your type.
This woman's no good.

Mean, she's not like Berrin.

My daughter will be
a princess when she grows up.

All the men will admire her,
but she'll pay no heed to any of them.

At a party in the castle,
she's wearing...

...a glorious dress and expensive
jewelry.

A tremendous orchestra...
plays waltz on the background.

My daughter climbs down
the marble stairs gracefully.

All the men in the hall
go down on their knees before her.

They start to pray. " hope she picks me.
No, no. Pick me."

Now take this piece of advice
from your mother, Lady Melek.

Don't let handsome men fool you.

They don't last forever.

Beauty doesn't last forever.

Words of love
and admiration are all vain.

What matters is compassion and mercy.

This is what a brave man is
all about.

Realized that too late.

But you.
You don't be late, honey. Don't!

Good morning!

Today's my birthday.
Yet I'm mourning and I'm drunk.

Sitting on a bar stool,
on the day of my father's death.

Today's my birthday...

Today's my birthday.
Yet I'm mourning and I'm drunk.

- Today's your birthday?!
- Oh, finally.

So, happy birthday.

- Is that it?
- What else did you expect?

Want a present.

Of course.

Will you please take me to
a ballad bar today. Pleeease!

Where?

What is he doing here?

Hello.

Hello.

Yesterday unpleasant things
happened here.

Know that
I'm responsible for them.

Forgive me.

Completely lost control of myself.

Behaved disrespectfully to my elders.

Fikret, bring tea to our friend.

Son, why are you doing such things?

Don't you feel bad about it?

A real man never shows
that kind of bullying behaviour...

Especially, to a woman!

Sir, have a miserable life.

Descend from a good family. had
a very good job back in Gaziantep.

Was a master repairman.
Few people had skills like me.

Met this woman in a night club.

She has a beautiful voice.

fell in love with the
sound of her voice.

Saved her from the night club.

Married her and
made her a decent woman.

We had a child like an angel.
God bless her.

But after a while, the woman
got agitated.

She insisted on going
back to the club life.

Tried to convince her not to
but she was very stubborn.

Tried everything but it didn't
work. broke her bones, you know?

Couldn't get her to change
her mind. Now please be honest.

Which man can stand seeing
her woman singing before...

...strangers and sitting at their
tables if he's not a pimp?

Is it something acceptable?

That's how became psychotic.

Almost killed that broad.

The marriage turned
my life into a mess.

My father deprived me from
his heritage. He refused his own son.

Finally, we got divorced...

...but there is the child.

She grows up in the night clubs.
She's taking her away from me.

She runs and chase her.
A lifetime has passed this way.

Lost my job and all my money.

My life's miserable but swear...

...will not leave my daughter to her.

No way.
This is not acceptable.

It's a tragedy.

When you hear his side
of the story, he's right.

He's right, yet he
has to control himself.

What a disappointment.
You're a brave man.

That's right. if you lose your temper,
you'll suffer the consequences.

Once had myself into such
trouble. Do you remember, Veysel?

...Of course, do.
- had a hard time.

Barely saved my butt, you know.

Almost got Nazim involved in it, too.
Fortunately, didn't.

You were alone, right?
Nazim wasn't there.

No, he wasn't. We were surrounded
by men with knives in their hands.

Know what kind of trouble it is.
You've told it plenty of times.

- Don't mess with woman matter.
- I'll go buy a pack of cigarettes.

- Have it from me!
- Thanks, that makes me cough.

What's up?

It's too hot in here.

Hey, what's up?

It's alright. Telling fortune again?

- He was here.
- Who's that?

Her husband.

What? He was here?
Where did he go? Where?

Hey, don't worry.
He went to buy cigarette.

He'll come back. We pulled his ear.
You, too, can speak a few words.

In fact, he looks like a good fellow.

Listen, friend. want you to do
your best hair-style ever.

Come on. Show all your skill.
Today's my birthday.

Tonight, I'll lose myself.

Don't you worry. Just tell me
how you want it to be.

The important thing is to know what
you want. Some come here and...

...ask for the impossible.

They don't care if that hair
would suit their face.

Yesterday, a customer showed me
a model and wanted the same hair.

Made it like that
but she didn't like it.

He said he would come, right?

He will, don't worry.

Chock, would it be OK
if didn't work tonight?

Okay. Suit yourself.

Can get your car?

What are you going to do with it?

That's none of your business.
Will you give it or not?

Well, okay. Take it.

- Er...Chock?
- Huh?

Can you look after Dunya's
daughter tonight?

Can she stay with you?

You're starting to make me angry.

Then told her, "I'm not styling
your hair. Get out of here."

Let Melek go.
Let my child go, asshole.

Stop him, catch him.

Hey, stop.
Come back, you bastard.

Catch him, for God's sake.

- Didn't he say he would come?
- told you, he'll come.

Hope nothing bad has happened
to Dunya in the hairdresser.

Heeelp. Heelp. Police, police.

Isn't that Halil?
He's kidnapping Melek.

Hey, stop you ass!

When did he...son of a gun.
He said he was going to buy cigarette.

Hey...Stop! Hey wait...Stop!

You shifty bastard, how
dare you kidnap my daughter!

- She's my child, too!
- Let the kid go!

The hell will!

- She's my child!
- She's mine.

No, won't give her to anybody!
Don't shout. Stop shouting in public!

Said give her to me!

Stop pulling her!
You're going to rip her arm!

I'd rather rip her arm than
giving her to you!

You're dead. You heard the officer.
He'll hang you by the foot.

Hope he'll do even worse, child thief.

Child thief?
You're the child thief.

Who stole her from her father, huh?

Get off my tail. I'm going
to the police station.

Follow me if you dare!

Son, haven't you gone
for a pack of cigarette?

We can't leave you alone
not even for a second!

You're one incorrigible man.
You're not the man you look.

You saw how Melek hugged me.
My daughter misses me, too.

Fuck you...She misses you my ass.

Yes, she misses the beating sessions.

You put her in this situation.

Yeah right, did.
Her mother's an escort in the club...

What's wrong?

- Blood pressure. Let's go to Berrin!
- Wait a minute, feel dizzy.

We should carry him. Wait, I'll take
him on my back. Come on.

Wait a minute, what are you doing?
I'm not a pannier. Let go, I'll walk.

How's your wound?

It's okay. I'll have the stitches taken.
hope there won't be any mark left.

You're doing wonderfully with
all this adventure at your age, Nazim.

If it was someone else,
he already would have passed away.

Your diastolic pressure is 12.
That's bad.

What's the man's pressure?

Hey, such a shameless man you are.

First you raise his pressure and
now you ask?

Had enough of this,
I'm going to the police.

Let it go.
He's obviously missed the kid.

This was a warning
for him anyway.

He's one hell of a man.

If won't go to the police,
then let me go to the hairdresser.

Look at me, for God's sake.
put Melek in your care.

Okay girl, leave her with us.

Don't worry, brother.
You're as solid as a rock.

This woman's got bad intentions.

She'll make you sick
and live on you.

Know this kind of woman.

Do you think my make up's overdone?

No. it looks pretty good.

See, there's a stain on the tie.
I'll change it.

Who is it?

It's me father.

Welcome, girl. Come in.

Let me introduce you to Dunya...
This is my daughter, Piraye.

- Nice to meet you.
- Hello.

And this is her daughter.

Take a seat. I'll change
this tie at once. it's stained.

Please.

What's your name, then?

Melek. Her mother's a talented
singer and she an artist.

Look, make another tree over here.

Hate wearing a tie,
but what can do? it's a habit.

Have a seat, baby.

So, what's up?

Father, I'm seeing someone
for quite a long time.

Yes?

His name is, Tolga.
We're serious. Now...

Tolga wants to meet you, of course.
have already met his parents.

Would it be OK,
if he came here tomorrow...?

Also want to call my elder brother
Memet, so that they can meet.

Of course, honey. As you wish!

Alright, then. Tomorrow,
we'll come in the afternoon.

I'll tell my brother.

Goodbye, Lady Melek.

Goodbye.

She's too young for you, father.

She's too young.

What's up? What happened?

She's getting married.
She wants me to meet him!

His name is Tolga.
Memet will also come.

It's for the best.

- Well, happy birthday.
- Thank you, brother Nazim.

Do you speak Kurdish?

No!

Then, why are you crying?

Brother, do you need to know
Kurdish in order cry for that ballad?

"The fig of the mountains,
the beauty of the mountains"

You're the fig tree,
the carrier of sorrow

You're in the roses

You're the fig tree,
the carrier of sorrow

Bride is the heart of the groom

"You're the fig tree,
the carrier of sorrow"

need to go back to work,
brother Nazim.

My stay in your house
has taken too long. I'm healed.

I'll make a couple of phone calls
tomorrow. The best thing would be...

...to disappear for me. You
can never tell what that psycho...

...Halil might do.

What? What do you want?

Bought you dessert for your
birthday. You love it.

Brother, could you listen
to me for a minute?

Need to talk to you in private.

No way. This maniac
will do something bad to you, brother.

You go on. I'll catch with you later.

Brother...

Brother...

Brother.

Don't.

Brother, help me, beg you.

No other can find a cure for our sorrow.

My love for Dunya
is far worse than any drug.

This love has ruined me.

This must be love to death.

I'm losing my control, brother.
don't know what I'm doing.

You are the only cure.

Because know that this girl loves
and respects you as a father.

She'll do anything you say.
And me, too.

Swear to God, I'll stop drinking.

Let me turn to stone if touch a single
strand of her hair. Let me burn in hell.

I'll marry her again.

Can not live without my daughter.

Can not live without Dunya, brother.

Help me, beg you.

Do me this one favor.

What does he want?

Nothing. Things you already know.
He just wanted to talk.

Welcome, have a seat.

Brother Nazim has gone shopping for
his guest. He'll come back soon.

- How are you? You look fine!

- I'm fine.
I'm almost completely healed.

Good, good. My father got old.
He needs someone to look after him.

It's good for him to have
a companion by his side.

Well, yes...but...you never know.
Cunning people are every where.

Are they swirling around him
for who he is or his house?

It won't be good for him to be in
the hands of an untrustworthy...

...estate hunter.
We need to be careful.

You know this kind of people as a
necessity of your work, right Dunya?

Excuse me, brother.
have some house work to do.

- Hello Memet. Did you arrive already?
- Hello, father. Yes, did.

Where is Dunya?

Don't know. She may be inside!

What are you doing?

- I'm packing!
- Why?

Brother, you have
things to do. Let me go.

This stay has taken too long.
It's enough.

No way. Where are you going
in such a hurry?

Let us finish this
then we can talk.

They're here, father.

- Welcome, son.
- Thank you, sir.

You too, Piraye.
Come in, girl. Have a seat.

- Please, sir.
- Thank you.

Come, have a seat.

Father, where do put this?

In the kitchen. You have bought a lot of
things, girl. Why did you bother?

- Yes, finally we meet.
- I'm very pleased to meet you, sir.

Piraye doesn't say much but
guess you are a banker.

Yes, I'm the director of customer
relations. I've become vice president.

- You must be very busy.
- Don't ask.

- Where are you going, girl?
- We're leaving.

What happened so suddenly?

It's OK, brother. Thank you very much.

You cared for us and
protected us.

This is even too much
for people like me.

No, not this way!

Then, get to know the groom
and come to the park once you...

...finish your work.
We'll be waiting over there.

OK. But don't go anywhere.

Of course. DVD, VCD,
plasma televisions.

Also think of cellular phone
franchising, but you know, ...

...everything depends on the market.
Market is very important.

- Hope the market will improve.
- Come, father.

Please, please don't bother son.

Welcome, again. How are you?

Thank you. My parents
have sent their regards.

They also want to meet
you as soon as possible.

God willing, son.
Please give them my regards.

The tea's brewing.

Sir, I'm sure Piraye has mentioned
but for the sake of custom...

Er... l studied in the US. In Boston.

And now, I'm a high ranking
executive of an important bank.

Very good.

Met Piraye at a seminar. May be
she's mentioned, my father's also...

...a banker and my mother's a lawyer.

She has a chair at the university.

She is Roman Law professor.

Very nice.

Know that you are also a teacher.

Primary school teacher.
But I'm retired now.

Know. Now, you can
enjoy your retirement.

Couldn't find the time.
I'm still working.

You must be
giving private lessons.

No, I'm working one
of my friends cab.

Go away from here, Halil.
Go back to your work.

You're getting wasted here.

Promise, I'll send you
your daughter.

Whenever you want. She can stay
with you as long as you wish.

Do you think came
all the way just for Melek?

- Pleased to meet you. See you!
- We're glad, too.

- See you.
- See you.

- I'll call you.
- OK, see you.

The thing you've said.
Was it true, father?

What?

Well, you know... The cab driving.

Yes, it was.

Father, how can you do such a
thing without consulting us?

If you needed money,
why didn't you tell me?

Why didn't you tell Piraye?

What's your problem?
Do you want to degrade us?

Son, what's wrong with working?

Nobody's telling you not to work, but...
cab driving is out of question.

Ever thought about
your daughter's pride?

You saw how
the man looked at you.

Besides, you don't need anybody's help.

The house is standing right there.
Give it to the contractor, just do it.

Why are you so stubborn?

Your stubbornness fucked up our lives.

Even my father-in-law serves
me a useful purpose than you do.

Opened the store with his help,
did you know that?

With his help. You cared for that
woman more than you cared for us.

Enough is enough, father. Enough!

Enough!

Say whatever you want
to say and let this be over.

Think that was a good show.

Tolga tried to boast his family's
occupation...

...and you made him ashamed of
what he said.

Think he deserved it.

But this is not what want to say.

Memet also talked nonsense but...

...he was to one who
stated the critical point.

He said, "You cared for that woman
more than you cared for us."

Forget about the rest of his words.
That money and house thing.

That is the line that
summarizes our lives.

You cared for them more than you
cared for us more than you loved us.

This woman, her daughter, your students,
the shepherd on the mountain...

...the woman in the field...

...you cared for and
loved them more than us.

When tried to...

...control my hatred against you...

used to say to myself:

"Life made him like that.
His grandfather is a war veteran."

"His father is an education volunteer.
He's a populist. A leftist."

He even named his son after a poet.
And brought him up as a patriot.

"You'll dedicate yourself to
your country, to your nation.."

Nazim has traveled to Anatolia...

He dedicated himself to his people.

Could understand all these but...

...couldn't understand one thing.

Could understand all these but
couldn't understand one thing

How come a man full of love could
be so indefferent to his own children...

...and especially to her daughter's
slowly developping disease?

Remember. We were in a village
in a corner of the world.

My mother told you about
my disease.

Had developed peritonitis and
was in pain.

Had to go to hospital, 'cause a doctor
would never come to that damn village.

Because of that darn students'report
grades and sice you were too busy...

...you didn't take me to the town...

You didn't care for my pain.
You delayed it.

You left me in the lurch,
with my mother, Dad.

Almost died of peritonitis.

You can say,
"it happens to everyone."

But there's one thing you don't know.

Peritonitis gave me a gift.

Because of that disease my tubes
congested when was a child.

Which means it was impossible
for me to have a baby.

Don't blame my mother
for leaving you.

Don't blame your children
for leaving you. You deserved all that.

Your ideals destroyed our family.

Memet is right, father.
You never loved us.

You used to give all your love
to your students...

...and when you were home,
you had nothing left for us.

L, too, love children so much Dad.

Love my children
which I'll never have.

And the prince and
the princess got married.

My queen, my princess, do you
want me to tell you another story?

Don't go in the evening.

What does it matter
if it's today or tomorrow?

Which hotel are you going to
stay at? Darkness falls!

First find yourself a job.

Talked to a friend of my mine.
He's got a night club. He's a good man.

He'll be waiting for me tomorrow.

Can't you quit
your job at the night club?

Welcome, Halil.
Do have another job to do?

It's not good for the child.

We can not decide
what's good for her!

We can. We have wisdom and will.

What if you can't find a baby-sitter.
Are you going to take her to the club?

If it's necessary, yes.

No, it shouldn't be.
First of all, you are a mother.

Don't give me that desperateness
crap. Everything is in our hands.

In our hands?

In our hands?

Listen carefully, then.

Two guys raped me
when was thirteen.

My parents sheeted bullets at
me instead of running after them.

To clear their honor. was thrown
out on the streets, crawled and...

...found myself in the night clubs.

But everything was in my hand, right?

My husband beat me day and
night without feeling any compassion.

Though, he had married me to save me.

Do you think wanted to
live through all this?

Who'll explain all these to me?

It's you who talks crap, teacher.

See, can take care of my daughter
very well.

What we want doesn't happen.

What can we do?

If this is my share of life
then there's nothing to do about it.

Melek has to take what she's offered.

Let's go home, don't be stubborn.

You broke my heart.

If you could only know how many
hearts had broken. You know?

Just found it out today myself.

Come on, now.

I'm going out to work.

Goodbye.

This is my phone number.
You can call if you need me.

Won't wake you up in the morning
before we go if you're still asleep.

Wake me up.

Halil told me that he still loves you
and he wants to remarry you.

He said he wouldn't touch a single
strand of your hair. He promised me.

When did you talk to him?

The night we came back
from the ballad bar.

See.

What did you say?

Nothing.

Why are you telling me all these?

You may want to try it once again
for the sake of Melek.

What should do, brother?

What do you think?

It doesn't matter what think.

- This is your life.
- Now it's yours, too.

So, now you're telling me
that have two options in my hands.

Can either go to the club...

...or go back to my husband, right?

Yes.

Isn't there a third option?

Go on painting, Lady Melek.

Who knows, maybe I'll come
to see your paintings one day.

Thank you very much, brother.

You saved a marriage from being
destroyed.

May God grant you
whatever you wish for.

Don't upset her any more.
Alright?

Halil, alright?

When snowy mountains
afford no passage

Roads get build
that reach to beloved

When my sweetheart
marries to another

Without anything else to do
cry out my eyes

Mountains, mountains...

My beloved cries

A veil's been put
on the divine beauty

Her white hand is hennaed

heard my lover...

Do interrupt?

Father, is there
anything wrong?

- No, don't worry girl.
- Please sit down!

This is the deed of the house
and the power of attorney.

Want you to give them to Memet.
He can do whatever he wants.

Why don't you give
him yourself, father?

It's much better this way.
You have a right on the house, too.

It's better for both of
us if didn't see him for a while.

What he wants is this
piece of paper, anyway.

L...

still don't know
why did all the things I've done.

Why did doom myself to
such loneliness?

Why couldn't prevent my family
from leaving me?

Why ruined my life running after
a useless dream?

Don't know.

And do you know what get in the end?

A very big nothing.

Just a few letters from my students and
some photographs they've sent.

And the most tragic part is, girl, ...

...to know that would have walked
the same path if was reborn.

Which means I've learned nothing
from all those disappointments, ...

...exiles and police investigations.

It's a weird thing.

To volunteer for feeling pain.

Not being able to help your soul
doing that job.

This gave me both grief and
pleasure.

Won't see you again in order
not to cause you more pain, girl.

Don't ask for your forgiveness...

...'cause it's terrible
not to be able to have child.

It's not a forgivable deed to make
you pay for the debt of my ideals.

We are all victims of our dreams.

Why is my name Nazim?

Your name is Piraye and
your brother's is Memet

Why?

Here you are.

- Good evening.
- Good evening.

Yes Chock. Hello.

Is that you, brother Nazim?

Brother Nazim?

Dunya? it's me, girl. Dunya?

Brother, please come to save us.
Save us!

BUS TERMINAL CAFE

I've arrived.
I'm in the cafe next to the terminal.

Brother Nazim, brother Nazim.

How are you, Melek?
How are you?

Forgive me for calling over here
you must believe had no choice.

He took all the money had.
He forbid me to go outside the house.

He calls every hour to
check whether I'm home.

Have noone to ask for money.
Please forgive me.

Okay, understand. Don't be afraid,
girl. We'll take care of everything.

There's a bus to lstanbul
in less than half an hour.

Then, you're free. We'll go to my place.
We can think about the rest over there.

This isn't Halil's handy number.

She's at the terminal.

She's runnig away.

The first few days were okay.
He didn't put raki in his mouth.

He was hugging Melek all the time
and we were singing ballads at night.

One night he was so happy that he
wanted to drink a glass of raki.

One glass became five.

BUS TERMINAL CAFE

Suddenly he attacked me.
Take a look at me.

This man's is no love.
He is a psycho. He needs treatment.

There are so many faces of love.

Brother Nazim...

Stay away from the girl!
said stay away.

Otherwise, I'll call the police and this
time you can not get away so easily.

What kind of a human are you?
What kind of a man are you?

Didn't you promise me
not to touch her again?

Are you leaving?

Yes. We are leaving.

Can talk to you
for two minutes before you go?

No!
won't talk to you ever again.

Stop pursuing me, OK?
Stop pursuing me.

Or, I'll die!

Don't say such things.

Alright.

Two minutes,
won't stay a second longer.

Don't go, Dunya. Don't leave me.

It's too late now.

The only reason went back with you
was brother Nazim and the kid.

Have nothing else more to say.

Whatever you do, whatever you
say doesn't mean a thing to me.

Don't know someone called Halil,
any more. it's over.

Are these your last words?

Yes.

At least, sing a ballad
for me one last time.

What?

A ballad.

One last time, please.
Do me this favor.

Sing, and then go.

The dress is yellow
but you are blonder

The dress is yellow
but you are blonder

I'd die for you,
You're the snow on the mountain

I'd die for you,
You're the snow on the mountain

asked everyone to
whom you belong

asked everyone to
whom you belong

But before ask you,
you shed tears

Like hailstones from the sky

had a shirt sown for me,
with buttons on its sleeve

had a shirt sown for me,
with buttons on its sleeve

Everybody should
submit to his destiny

Everybody should
submit to his destiny

Forgive me.

Couldn't keep my promise.

Entrust Melek to you.

Don't depend on the
ugly my frantic heart

Don't depend on the
ugly my frantic heart

My love should reach Malatya

My love should reach Arguvan

Come here, girl. These are
my children in the village.

This is Setttar, this is Memo, this
is Dilan, this is Omer, this is Ayse.

Ayse.

Yes, Ayse.

Settar... Memo...Dilan...Omer.

Will you also go to school?

Yes.

Alright. Okay.

These are the letters that my
students have written for me.

Do you want me to read them to you?

Yes.

Okay. Let's see
who sent this one.

This is from Memo.

Welcome, father. Come in.

No, can't. I'm going out to work.

Er... Melek is my guest.
Do you think she could...

mean just for tonight.

She can stay with me,
father. Don't worry.

Come in, Melek. Come here.

Live in Bodrum.

I'm in yacht tourism business.

Both manufacture them and...

We suffer. The sufferance causes
hatred. The hatred brings destruction.

Lives fall down and
crash into pieces.

But sometimes a great disaster may
be the source of a great happiness.

Broken pieces of words that flow out of
a child's mouth can turn into miracles.

In spite of all the defeat...
