Life in a small town is akin to journeying in the middle of the steppes: the sense that “something new and different” will spring up behind every hill, but always unerringly similar, tapering, vanishing or lingering monotonous roads…
Nuri Bilge Ceylan’s “Once Upon a Time in Anatolia” has been awarded with the Grand Prix at the 64th Cannes Film Festival. Ceylan shared the award with Dardenne brothers for their film ‘The kid with a bike”.
