Following a screening at last fall’s Turkish Film Festival, the Museum reprises the evocative latest film by Nuri Bilge Ceylan. Sinan, a university student, returns to his parents’ home in the small town of Çan. He hopes to raise money to publish a book of stories. However, his father’s gambling debts not only affect the entire family, but also Sinan’s future as an author.
