Country: Turkey
Director: Nuri Bilge Ceylan
Cast: Muhammet Uzuner, Yılmaz Erdoğan, Taner Birsel & Ahmet Mümtaz Taylan.
Kenan and his mentally retarded brother confessed of murdering a guy. During that time Kenan was drunk and can't remember the exact spot where he buried the body. A small battalion of local authorities makes their way through the Anatolian countryside in a three vehicle caravan to recover the body of the victim.
A realistic police procedural movie with a lot of unanswered questions and lies a mystery in each conversation. Ceylan took his time to settle down his characters and showing what kind of personalities they bare. He is very good at manipulating the viewing angle of audiences and the small chit-chat scenes of officers were his distraction techniques which you will eventually fall in. Overall, it's a compelling and engaging movie even though it's a slow paced one, try to approach it as a one night road trip through Anatolian landscape.
Verdict: Great
