Insaat (2003)
Best Comedy-Drama for Last 10 Years
It is the best comedy drama for Turkish movie industry for last 10 years or so.
Two construction workers finds themself in a situation that they never expect. Their only goal in life is going to Italy by illegal Smugglers. They need money for this trip. While they are working as construction workers they become popular in crime world and final destination for dead bodies. Of course they earn money more than they need by doing night work (!)
Movie starts with boring setup and then becomes excellent. It is an example for what can happen to you....
I strongly recommend to you that you should have this movie in your collection...
Crossing the Bridge: The Sound of Istanbul (2005)
Great perspective of view to Istanbul and Turkish Music Culture
A European musician and composer sets out to capture the musical diversity of Istanbul. A lover of experimenting with sound, Alexander Hacke (of the German avantgarde band Einstürzende Neubauten) roams the streets of Istanbul with his mobile recording studio and "magic mike" to assemble an inspired portrait of Turkish music. His voyage leads to the discovery of a broad spectrum ranging from modern electronic, rock and hip-hop to classical "Arabesque". As he wanders through this seductive world, Alex collects impressions and tracks by artists such as neo-psychedelic band Baba Zula, fusion DJs Orient Expressions, rock groups Duman and Replikas, maverick rocker Erkin Koray, Ceza (Turkey's answer to Public Enemy), breakdance performers Istanbul Style Breakers, digital dervish Mercan Dede, renowned clarinetist Selim Sesler, Canadian folk singer Brenna MacCrimmon, street performers Siyasiyabend, Kurdish singer Aynur, the "Elvis of Arabesque" Orhan Gencebay, and legendary divas Müzeyyen Senar and Sezen Aksu.
Pardon (2005)
It's an ironic story
It's a great movie. I really enjoyed it. Sometimes made me laugh loudly.
The movie is about a person who afraid of uniform and doesn't like to be called "LAN". He is a late age soldier in Turkish Army and before deployment he just wanted to see his loved one in Istanbul.
In the terminal, police fallows him then puts him and his friend under custody. Police officer make them sign a crime confession and story starts.
It's been almost seven years and they are still in the jail as innocent as everybody.
