Mizrap may be a “good fellow” to everybody else, but to his family he is a big disappointment, a 40 year old with no job, no goals, no ambitions whatsoever. When he gets kicked out of the house it seems a good idea to visit his old army friend Salim who lives in a small village "piece of heaven with endless fields to cultivate, where a man can naturally dream of a small house, a wife and children…" As Mizrap hits the long road with his dog Karakiz, there will be strange, threatening and surprising encounters ahead and lessons both painful and enlightening to be learned. Ayhan Sonyürek's festival audience favorite is a delight from start to finish with perfect performances from Cengiz Bozkurt and his canine companion. |
