SINOPSE:
Um homem de 60 anos, que cresceu numa tribo nómada nas montanhas do sudeste da Turquia, recorda momentos da sua juventude que marcaram a sua vida. Recorda-nos a sua infância idílica com a mãe, o seu primeiro amor encontrado num campo de algodão e perdido na floresta, e os maus tratos sofridos às mãos da polícia, num local frio e sombrio.

He takes us back to his idyllic childhood with his mother, his first love found in a cotton field and lost in the woods, and the mistreatment suffered at the hands of the police, in a cold and dark place.
