This multi-layered drama follows the stories of six people -€” four Turks and two Germans -€” as  they realize the meaning of love while facing the harsh realities of the world we live in. It  is a beautiful, unexpectedly enrapturing story about a world in transition and both the  closeness and unbridgeable divide between generations and cultures.  German,Turkish, and English with English subtitles. Unrated. 116 minutes. 35mm. Partial   funding provided by the Department of German & Slavic Languages.
