With winter closing in, an Anatolia hotel owner prepares for the coming cold, but the severe weather transforms his cozy inn from a shelter into an emotional prison for the aging former actor, his resentful wife, and his recently divorced sister. Anatolia is in Asia Minor and the western protrusion of Turkey. Think "no man's land and barren". The movie is an emotional roller coaster with more philosophy than Aristotle could ever imagine. The story can be confusing but you will get the drift. The young wife hates the husband who is a conceited bully. As for the sister, I would have divorced her too. I give it a strong 4. Stars Haluk Bilginer, Melisa Sozen, Demet Akbug.
