Winter Sleep - Official Trailer

From the director of Once Upon A Time in Anatolia.
Winner of the coveted Palme d’Or at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, the new film from Turkish auteur Nuri Bilge Ceylan (ONCE UPON A TIME IN ANATOLIA) is an immersive and provocative drama.
Set in the picturesque and striking landscape of Cappadocia in Central Anatolia, #WinterSleep focuses on a small village, half-empty, in the wintry off-season. The film follows a local celebrity, Aydin (Haluk Bilginer), an actor who runs a small hotel with his wife, writes a column for the local newspaper, and is toying with the idea of producing a book on Turkish theatre.
Like all the villagers, Aydin has time on his hands, but as Ceylan’s film progresses, the director carefully strips away the veneer that surrounds this self-satisfied and insular man. Through some magnificent set pieces, beautifully written and performed, we get a close look at Aydin’s interactions with his wife, his recently divorced sister, and a family of locals who are tenants of one of his properties.

Do watch this if you want to see real art and maybe learn something about both the human and animal condition.

You had better be a vegan to take up such moral grandstanding.
