Program Note
A normal family outing turns into a nightmare. When their parents are murdered, the younger brother and sister are left with the baby. They scrape through by, selling furniture, but the ordeal seems to be endless. Children orphaned by assassinations are a reality in Kurdish society. The scenes of Diyarbakir, crowded yet so bleak, mirrors this reality. The picture doesn′t promise a rosy future taking advantage of the kids′ innocence nor beautify it by good grownups fake sympathy. It merely looks into the cool gazes of the children silently. (CHO Young-jung)
