All language subtitles for Kelebekler 2018 Eng v2

Written and Directed by

Dedicated to

Mrs. Merkel,

do not force us
to become radical.

Don't forget:

There is nothing more dangerous

than an astronaut

with nothing to lose.

This is the sixth day

on which the
astronauts are on strike.

Everyone will likely be
familiar with you all

thanks to the music video
you made recently.

Sitting next to us is the leader
of the astronauts, Cemal.

Cemal, please tell us,
what exactly is the problem?

Good evening.

We've been neglected
for ten years.

Our families and
friends make fun of us.

"Daddy, where are
you coming from? Space?"

"Daddy, when are
you going there?"

Once again this year,
they decided that

there would be no funding
to send us into space.

We were trained to
to eat and sleep in space and,

excuse me,
to shit in space.

We've sacrificed
our years for it.

If they weren't
going to send us,

then why did they
waste our lives?

We're going to continue our protests
until they send us into space.

We have nothing to lose.

We have nothing to lose.

I wasn't prepared for that.

Can you please tell
me what to do next?

Okay.

Is the suit state-owned?

No.

We had them made ourselves.

Teacher,
Ali stole my pencil!

Teach-
Ali stole my pencil!

Mr. Ahmet Arif has
forgotten my food again.

Not "Ahmet Arif", man.
"Ahmet Misbah".

It's written as "Ahmet Arif" here.

Kenan, it's "Ahmet Misbah".

He's my client,
how would you know?

Ahmet Mispah.
Misbah? B or p? Mis...

And how about adding
more jokes for that cat?

These jokes were
actually written for the tree.

The cat was supposed
to be grumpy and stuff.

What?

The cat was supposed to be grumpy.

That was the humor in the cat.

How is that funny?
Is it supposed to complain by itself?

I think it's funny.

No, it isn't
Not even a little.

Just add some jokes
and let's be on our way.

Okay.

If I go through here,

I just might be able to

piss around the trees!

You just set yourself on fire.
Yeah, man!

- Now that's a statement.
- Thanks.

You know what?
You're an icon now.

Come on now.

This year they'll send you
into space one hundred percent.

You should never give up.

Your fight is my fight.

Your revolution is my revolution.

- It's just going to be...
- Excuse me.

- I'll be with you until the very end.
- Hello?

- I am an astronaut.
- Hello, who is this?

Hell yeah!

Yes, I hear you,
please go ahead.

Mazhar?

Father?

He would follow
the butterflies until they died.

They made fun of him.

He would never speak.

When they died, he would brought
them together, one by one.

He would collect them.

Everybody made fun of him.

He would never speak.

He opened thousands
of graves on his skin.

One by one,

he buried the dead butterflies
in the holes on his skin.

Everyone made fun of him.

He never spoke.

He just stopped.

Stopped just like that.

He waited for one day.

Waited for another day.

In the morning of the third day,

thousands of butterfly
wings appeared on the skin.

And he flew away.

No, we cannot finish this.
It's huge! How many grams is this?

It's like a lamb!
Where did it come from?

Emre, I want to breakup.

Suzan, what are you saying?

- I want to breakup.
- When?

- What do you mean "When?" Now!
- Excuse me my love but, you're being...

My love, where is
this coming from?

Where is it coming from?

I've been telling
you for three months.

For three months?
To me?

You won't get the fish then, no?

My love, if you've been telling me,
how come I know nothing of it?

Do you know what you told me
the last time I said it?

- Emre!
- Yes?

Yes?

I came into the room,
you were at the computer.

I said, "Emre, I want to breakup".

Then you slowly raised your head,
looked at me and said:

"The sushi in this country
is so ridiculously expensive, no?"

I said that?

- If you wish, I can come back later.
- My dear friend...

I've told you four times
in these past six months.

You didn't hear of any of them!
Emre, I wanna break up.

My love, so it's been
like this for six months, huh?

No, Emre, it's been
like this since the beginning.

But only for the past six months
I've been telling you...

My sweetheart.

My sweet potato. My darling.

Forgive me.
I neglected you a bit.

You know,
that Bolu Tunnel contract...

I've been in ruins since
I signed up for that.

My head is all over the place.

I know, I've been neglecting you,
not calling or paying attention. I know.

We...

Durmazlar Holding came aboard
as a subcontractors.

We were to handle the posts,
they were to handle the ventilation.

Despite the contract,
they keep saying that,

I'm supposed to pay the insurance
premiums of the workers on west side.

You idiots, if I were to pay all of the
insurances premiums

why would I sign you on
as subcontractors?

I'd put them on the payroll!

It would be an expense
and can be used as tax deduction...

Hello? Cemal brother?

I'm fine. How are you?

Did something happen?

Did my father call?

Can I have a beer?

Do I know you?

What?

Do I know you?

No, I dunno.

I don't think so.
But this happens to me often.

Often?

Yep.

What I mean is, I'm used to it.

I'm an actor, you see.

I was in a TV series called
The Bottom of The Neighborhood.

In what?

I was in the
The Bottom of The Neighborhood,

as "Iso".

As the lead?

I'd rather take a bit part and be a bitch,
than take the lead part be the headlines!

No responsibility at all!
What if there is an injury...

No, I'll come to Istanbul.
Then we'll go all together, okay?

I'll get a ticket
for tomorrow morning.

Okay. Okay, see you.

I don't know
anything about ventilation.

My job is laying
down the posts.

I don't care about the rest.
Ventilation...

I also know that
you're cheating on me Emre.

With whom? What? Who-

Emre, I'm leaving you.

From now on,
the old Suzan is no more.

Stop that pointless
nodding you're doing.

There is good money
in TV series and stuff but

it locks you out of your acting,
you know.

Like, it shrinks that part of you.

That's why I'm doing voice-overs.

Hmm.

There are family videos and stuff,

like some people
don't like their own voice,

so we dub them sometimes.

Cats and dogs as well...

What?

We sometimes write lines
for the cats, dogs and stuff.

It's funny.

- It's funny?
- Yep.

Your phone is ringing.

I know.

- Won't you answer?
- No.

Is it your girlfriend?

It says "Cemal".
My older brother.

Maybe he's worried about you.

He called me like
four times over 30 years.

So I doubt he's worried.

Then there must be an
important reason for his call.

That's what I'm afraid of.

Should we go
somewhere more comfortable?

I am tired of talking like this.

- Hasselbaink.
- Hasselbaink?

- Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink.
- Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink. Right.

He was a very good striker.

The guy is Dutch.

Yeah?

288 matches, 129 goals.

He had a great harmony with Zola.

Gianfranco Zola.

This fucking phone...

Enough! Enough!

Hallo! Surprise.

Aren't you going to say anything?

What... I dunno,
when I saw you all of a sudden...

What are you doing here?

Thought I'd drop by
and see my brother.

It is Kenan by the way, yes?
I'm not in the wrong house.

What's up?

Sorry for barging in,
is it okay?

I'm fine, it's okay.

Sorry, I was like, whatever.
It's just so sudden.

How many times have I called?
You should've checked your phone.

I came in with my shoes on,
is it okay?

It's fine, I do it too.

Wow, the life of an artist.

Was there a party?

Nah.

- You hungry?
- You look... What?

- I'll have something, are you hungry?
- No thanks. I ate on the plane.

You were saying something.

Uh-huh.

Our father called.

He's calling us to Hasanlar.

He told me to come to Hasanlar,
with you and Suzan.

Said it was important.

You don't say. Great.

Great!

Then we'll go tomorrow.

- Are you in touch with father?
- No, I'm not.

Okay then,
we hit the road tomorrow.

What road are you hitting?
Are you fucking with me?

Going to Hasanlar
after 30 years?

He called and
said it was important.

I spoke to Suzan too,
she'll be here tomorrow.

Suzan's coming?

For two days, you haven't been
answering or checking your phone.

- Is Suzan coming here?
- Yes. She'll be here tomorrow morning.

Let me fix you a bed.

You two can head to
Hasanlar tomorrow morning.

My father asked me
to bring both of you.

Have you ever heard
him say such a thing?

I haven't heard anything from him
for 30 years to begin with.

Listen, are you hiding
something from me?

Like what?

I dunno, all of a sudden,
after 30 years...

Here.

- It's a bit dirty but...
- It's fine.

He sounded calm,
but said it was important.

In the morning we'll
have a nice breakfast.

Suzan will be here too.

Then you two can go to.
I can't come, I have a job to do.

What job?

You know,

there's a shooting and stuff.

- Shooting?
- Aye.

New series? Which one?

As if you know the old one.
New series... There's no shooting.

Like voice-over and...

Huh?

No need to talk about it.

- What?
- We'll talk later.

Now I, it all came...

Oh no.

Kenan?

Come on,
let's go to the bathroom.

Oh, my vomit is all dark.

It's okay, let's go to the bathroom.
Come on, get up.

I'll call you back
in five minutes, okay?

Come on, get up. Let's go.

Morning sunshine.

I sent the doorman to the market.
Yakup. Funny guy.

I thought our conversation
last night was a dream.

Turns out, it was a nightmare.

Are you hungry?

You stepped
on my foot, you fool. Ouch!

Sorry.

...so I rented a car.
So that we can go easily.

I don't really remember, though.
After all, I was eight.

I'm not coming.

Our father called us Kenan.

"Our father called." Fucking hell...
Did we have a father for 30 years?

My father told me that
I must come with you and Suzan.

"Must" He said. "It is important".

And?

There is nothing to do.

My sweety pie...!

Kenan, who is this woman?

Hello, I'm Suzan.

Kenan, who is this Suzan?

My sister.

And you?

Hello, I'm Cemal.
His older brother.

His older brother.

Kenan!

Kenan!

Who are they?

My siblings.

Your siblings?

How many years
have we been together?

Four.

Four. And a half.
Four and a half!

- And a half, right...
- And a half.

You didn't mention
them all this time.

You had no siblings or family.
Do you remember saying?

- I remember.
- So you do? Great.

Now your siblings
came out of nowhere?

- Two of them as well.
- Last night, my brother...

- No, it was me who called.
- Right.

- You didn't answer.
- Because my brother came.

- You vanished. I wanted to come.
- But my brother came.

- Are you hearing what I'm saying?
- Yes, I hear you. Honestly, my brother...

Right. Right. If you
were to answer your phone. Listen...

Shut up for a minute!
I'm already dealing with these two!

- Don't shout!
- Okay. Please.

- Kenan, I'm not done yet!
- Please, let me deal with them, we'll talk later.

- Shut up already!
- Come back here! Are you crazy?

I can't tell
what is real anymore!

I've had enough!

Your brothers and
sisters can go to hell!

She is a little tense.

Things have been
piling up on top each other recently.

Kenan, we are going to Hasanlar.

You have my blessings, do go.

You're coming too.

- No, I'm not.
- You are coming.

- I'm not coming.
- You are coming.

- No, I'm not.
- You are coming.

- No, I'm not.
- You are coming.

Will you shut up?
What are you doing?

- You're coming.
- I'm not.

- You're coming.
- I'm not.

What is this?
Is this donkey trying to hypnotize me?

- He's coming. You're coming.
- I'm not coming.

You're coming.

- And, what's up with you?
- You're coming.

- With sunglasses and...
- You're coming.

I have some problems.

- You have some problems.
- Uh-huh.

But we're inside...

- You're coming.
- Shut up! I'm not coming! I'm not coming!

I'm not coming, okay?
I'm not coming!

I'm not coming.

Okay. If you aren't coming,
we'll just stay here and won't go anywhere.

Listen, he wouldn't call us for no reason.
You might regret it later.

Just come.
We'll only stay a few days.

Aren't you worried?

Come on, let's just go.
Why make it such a big deal?

What if he's sick or something?

If he's sick, he is sick.
The fuck do I care?

Did he call us just once?
Did he worry at all?

Hello? That's just
what I'm saying, he called.

I've tried so hard to forget all this,
to put it all behind me. It's all in the past.

- Kenan, I'm saying he called.
- I'm not saying he called.

For once, did he ever wonder?

He was under treatment for a long time.
Don't talk like you don't know.

- How can you be mad at him?
- I'm not mad.

I'm not. I just...

...don't care.

Whatever...

- Come on, we'll go together.
- Don't act juvenile.

I'm the juvenile?
Get a load of this guy!

He's going "You're coming." for minutes.

Please, for me.

I need some time for myself.
I must get away from everything.

I'm not okay.

I need you.

Please, let's go together.

He didn't call you,
I get that,

but how times did you call me,
your little sister?

Here I am, looking for you.

I need you, I said.

I'm calling you.

Suzy.

Let's put on some good music
and brighten our moods.

The road is long.

♪ Grup Gündogarken - Bir Yaz Daha Bitiyor
(Another Summer is Coming to an End) ♪

Another summer is coming to an end.

The sky has gotten cloudy.

The waves are tired and heavy,

like they are catching
their breath on the shores.

- Tents are removed
- What was this?

- Was it Yeni Türkü, what was it?
- Yeni Türkü?

- Grup Gündogarken. I like them.
- Motels are empty.

Brother, are you sure you were in Germany
and not in a coma all these years?

The hearts have gotten heavier.

- Separations are like a game.
- This road won't end, will it?

My mother committed suicide.

Let's repeat. "My mom committed
suicide. My mom committed suicide."

Come on. It took me a
long time to be able to say that.

But once I did,
I was free and I felt relieved.

Come on Kenan, repeat after me.

Are you crazy?
Is this something to joke about?

No, of course not.
She hanged herself and committed suicide.

Can you be quiet?

- Mother killed herself, this isn't your fault.
- I know that.

- The fury in you is not your fault.
- Can you be quiet?

- It's not the fault of any of us.
- We get it.

- Yes, Emre?
- The Astronaut's Road Guide.

Cemal, can turn down the music?

- Yes?
- Where are you sweetheart?

- What is that?
- The name of the book I wrote.

Realization of the Will:
The Astronaut's Road Guide.

Are you writing a book?

- Yes, a self-help book.
- I'm on the way to Hasanlar.

I talk about the
persuasion technique I've used.

I'm not going to anyone.

You persuaded me?

Yes, I've used the
repeating method on you.

My father called.

- It's a Zen Buddhist technique.
- Did you become a Buddhist?

- Repeat the thing you want.
- Dad called us to his village.

You repeat and repeat,
and it happens.

So you are the one
who convinced me to come?

Considering where
you're sitting...

I'm with my
brothers right now...

...much easier than what
the subcontractors are doing...

He's still talking...

- Who is it?
- Emre.

- Your husband?
- My future ex-husband.

- What is he saying?
- He's saying "Subcontractor."

Subcontractor?

- What is that?
- The one you transfer the contract.

Do you call
each other subcontractors?

Hang on, what do you mean,
transferring a contract?

- He talking about his job.
- How nice. He's sharing with you.

But it is constant. Constant.
He is constantly sharing.

Subcontractor.
He is still sharing!

Emre, dear, I'll call you later.

I'm busy at the moment. Emre...

I'm with my brothers right now.
I'll call you later, okay?

What I'm mad about is,
that the subcontractor...

So very annoying.

...like a game.

But do you know
the most clever part?

Most clever part of what?

Your older brother
is writing a self-help book.

Each sentence is 140 characters.
So why 140 characters?

So why 140 characters?

So why 140 characters?

- On the Internet...
- So why 140 characters?

So why 140 characters?

- To be published on the Internet.
- Internet.

Yes, so they can tweet it.

Young people are always
on Twitter, on social media.

So that's why
every sentence is 140 characters.

This road will never end, for real.

Other self-help writers,
say Elke Heidenreich,

They never pay attention to
such things. But it is important.

If you can't catch today's age,
you cannot step into the future.

Well said, hodja. Stepping into
the future, such an important topic.

- What about the inverted commas?
- What about commas?

- Inverted commas.
- Inverted commas.

- Quote marks.
- Quote marks.

Can we turn the music down?

You know, to indicate
it's someone else's patter.

Or else the others would think
the sentence belongs to the poster.

Ah Komma.

Zitaten.

That's probably it. You know,
you use them when you quote someone.

Turn that down, will you?

I didn't think of that.

Can we turn
that off for a minute?

It's doing my head in.

Not so fast, Mr. Kenan.

First, it will play what I want. Then yours.
And then the youngest, Suzy.

Okay then pull over.

I'm about to piss blood out of boredom.

Kenan, we won't
get there at this rate.

Come on. Let's stop and have
a smoke or something...

...hopes or despair in secret.

A little less satiable.
Loves are a little less hopeful.

Another summer...

I'll ask the friend over there.

- What?
- The glasses are gone.

Excuse me,
do you have a moment?

Pardon.

Good evening.
Is this the right way to Hasanlar?

So which way is it?

Wait, don't close it.

Here, Cemal brother.

Maybe you should've
asked in German?

They would've
answered in Germany.

Excuse me, sir,
do you have a moment?

- Pardon. Excuse me.
- Ha ha ha.

Good evening. Greetings.

Good evening, thank you.
A room, yes?

- Yes.
- Of course, a room. Come in.

Are you all together?

Yes.

- My siblings.
- Oh, how nice.

Ah!

Can I ask something?

Where can we eat, at this hour?

What?

A place to eat,
that's open at this hour.

Oh sure. On the outskirts,
there is the Club Sakin.

- Club Sakin?
- Yeah. Sakin.

- I'll get your IDs on your way out.
- Sure, okay.

You mother... Damn!

I found a place to eat.

Fantastic...

We'll stay in one room,
hope it's not a problem.

And we can have a drink or two.

Count me in.

♪ Harabe Gönlüm
(My Heart in Ruins) ♪

Come in please, welcome. Sülo!

Welcome to our nightclub.

This way, brothers, please.

Is the kitchen open?

It's about to close but
I have meatballs and appetizers.

- I'll have the meatballs.
- Make that three, chief.

- Is raki okay?
- Okay. A large one.

A large raki.

And cheese. Feta.

- And fruit.
- Okay.

What a strange joint, isn't it?

- And can you get some ice?
- Sülo, get some ice brother.

You know, it's like a set
from one of your TV series.

Wow, I've never thought I'd be
in a place like this with you guys.

- They are giving me looks.
- It'll be okay.

How do you know it'll be okay?

Her brothers are here.

Bro, you brought
us to a nightclub to eat.

- What do you mean "nightclub"?
- Yes. They'll eat us here.

Nothing will happen, man.

Is it enough?

No, keep going.

Greetings.

- Look in front of you.
- Huh?

Sorry.

You got excited when
you saw the broad, didn't you?

Can't take his eyes off her!

Cheers.

Good to have you here.

I've made this far.
I don't know about the rest.

Don't be ridiculous.

There's no turning back now.

We aren't astronauts, bro, we are actors.
It's anybody's guess what we'd do next.

Kenan, there's no turning back now.
We are going.

Come on, come on.
To our health.

So, are you dubbing cats,
trees, dogs and things like that?

- Yep.
- So how do you get by?

- I get by because I am short.
- You get by because you're short?

Cemal brother, so what do you do,
besides being an astronaut?

How's the life there?

You said you
were writing a book?

I am writing a self-help book.

So, when are
you going to space?

- We're still discussing that.
- Discussing with who?

With the aliens?

No, with the authorities.

Authorities...

Is it a non-stop flight
or is there a layover?

Stops by Hamburg.

Do they accept Istanbul pass?

You probably don't
know what that is...

Does roasting me help you unwind?

How does one go to space?
Is it always the same route?

Do all routes end up
at the same spot?

If it unwinds you,
be my guest, do continue.

For real?

Meatballs sucked ass.

Dumped too much garlic.

And this idiot
spends all the money...

They'll mess us up here,
you have no idea.

Don't worry,
I get paid in euros.

Euros you say?

It's all about Kamil.
I have nothing against Faruk brother.

But I just don't
understand Kamil. Fucking Kamil.

Get Euro ass outta here!

Poor Faruk brother...
He gets there and...

And Sir Kamil is
nowhere to be found.

Kemal brother would never do that.

Who's the hell is Kemal?
It's Kamil. Kamil.

Psst!

You there, fatso.

- The guy says get up...
- I'm talking to you, mustachio!

Here we go...

Don't you understand?

Don't you understand
why Kamil did what he did?

What?

No. I don't understand.

Then get the fuck back to that corner
and keep not understanding over there!

I'm with my brothers after all these years
and you keep running your mouth.

Kamil did this, Kamil did that.
Enough!

You fucked up my head!

Suzan.

The fuck you looking at?
You son of a butt sniffer!

Beat it!

Suzy.

Lady, are talking to me?

Your mother's a lady!
I'm talking to you, who else?

Sister, are you talking to me?

I'll fuck your sister!
What the hell is "sister"?

Did your mother fuck my father?
What sister are you talking about?

- I'll rip your dick off!
- Suzy. What the?

- Oi! Are you still here?
- No no.

Stay the hell out of my sight!

- I swear to God, I'll break your dick off!
- Suzy, calm down!

- Get out of my sight!
- Suzy, enough already!

- Sorry my friend.
- Shush!

- Take her away!
- Okay, we're leaving.

Where are you taking me?

- I'll wreck this place!
- Oh for the love of... Suzy, Please.

Thought you were hot shit,
just cause I'm being quiet?

- Enough!
- Okay, let's go back to the hotel.

What do you want from me?
I'll tear this place down!

They've gone already!

Wait a minute, not like that...

Kenan, move.

Alright damn it, geez...
I'm hurting all over, you know?

And what you looking at,
you bushy brush?

Bushy what now?

I'll have some more raki...

We're here!

- Number one!
- Suzy, be still.

Open the door...

I'm gonna... You stay outside.
I'll change into my pajamas.

Shh.

Balloon.

Did she say "Balloon"?
What does that mean?

How the fuck should I know?

What kind of swearing was that?

- She swears very well.
- I've never heard anything like that.

What does "Butt sniffer" mean?

Your nose is bleeding.

Of course it's fucking bleeding.
We got a boatload of beating.

My watch is gone!

Why are you laughing?

Scheisse.

You do pack a punch though.

You do, don't you?

Astronaut physique or something...
You can really throw a punch.

We got our
asses handed to us to go!

My back is in a state.

We had some shitty meatballs,
but then we had some good thrashing.

In the end,
that's what happened.

Man, laugh a little.

Goodness gracious.

This spot hurts bad.
No idea when it happened.

Suzy.

- Open it.
- Suzy.

What a nut.

Get up, you!

Get her up.

Oh Lord...

Wake up girl,
they took your brother's watch!

Why the hell are you laughing?

Cemal brother, wake up.

- Good Morning.
- Cemal, Kenan's gone.

- Gone how?
- He's just gone.

Gone how?

What were you
talking about last night?

What were we
talking last night?

What were we?

Enough already! You two
were arguing at the nightclub.

- Yeah, so?
- What was it about?

He said...

It's anybody's guess
what he'd do next.

And he can go back
at any moment.

But he was drunk,
he wasn't all there.

- Did he really say that?
- Suzy, he wouldn't leave.

At the very least,
he wouldn't take the car.

Where's your phone?

There he comes.

- Where were you?
- What?

Breakfast was over so
I went to grab some pastries.

I filled up the tank too.

- What you staring at?
- Let me get the bags.

What's with the grin?

Will you go in your pajamas?
Get dressed.

Come while
the pastries are hot.

♪ Erkut Taçkin - Baba
(Father) ♪

Ugh. My back hurts.

The worst is that my watch is gone.

It's gone,
you might as well forget.

Well, I apologize.

What happened to us last night?
Did they say something to you?

I don't get it.

They didn't say or do anything.

- But you were swearing at them?
- Yes.

I made a decision to say
what I'm feeling, when I'm feeling it.

A father called his children,
on the last day.

Called out, far and wide,
He was desperate that day.

If a father didn't give affection,
and locked it away

Kept the love hidden,
even from his children.

Now how can he wait
for his children to embrace him?

If a father didn't teach how to kiss.

Forgive. Forgive him.

Even though, he might not
have been a father for you.

Loneliness. Loneliness did...

Did taught him this truth, only too late.

Now please all of you,
gather next to him.

Should be kissed and caressed,
his hands that tremble.

Now please all of you,
gather around to him.

Whoa, what was that noise?

Dunno, are they blowing up
dynamites or something?

We're here? You were supposed
to wake me up before we got here.

How should I know?
It's not like I come here everyday.

Suddenly, the sign was there.

Kenan, let's park
over there somewhere.

There's some shade over there.

Okay I got it.
Geez, I'll park somewhere.

On the left. Pull over.

Okay, stop.

You don't remember
the house, do you?

Let me ask those
friends over there.

And all of them
are his fucking friends.

Should I go and take a look?

Okay, fine.

- Greetings, how are you?
- Thank you.

I'm Cemal. Mazhar's son.

- Mazhar's son?
- Yes, I'm his eldest.

I've just arrived
with my siblings.

I wanted to say hello and
ask where my father's house is.

I asked a fellow outside,
he told me to see the Muhtar.

- You are the Muhtar, yes?
- I'm the Muhtar.

Who said that?

You said.

Me? What did I say?

- You said "I'm the Muhtar".
- Not that, my boy.

Who told you to come here?

Oh, I don't know who.
A fellow with dark hair.

Dark hair?

- Dark hair.
- Was it Hüseyin?

Hüseyin, I wouldn't know.

He's tallish.

- No, not so.
- But dark haired.

Right.

Well I never...

- What did he say?
- Visit the Muhtar.

- What did you say?
- Nothing.

What did he say?

I said, "I am looking for
Mazhar's house, he's my father."

He said, "Visit the Muhtar."
I said nothing and came here.

It's either Hüseyin or Zahid.

Didn't you say dark haired?
It's either Hüseyin or Zahid.

Could be.

- So you're Mazhar's son, huh?
- Yeah.

He called the other day.
Asked us to drop by.

We will surprise him.

It's going to be
a surprise alright.

You said he called, right?

Yes. He wanted me and
my siblings to come to the village.

My condolences, my brother.

Your condolence? What is that?

Condolences.

- You didn't know?
- Know what?

Oh, take a seat then, brother.

- What did you say your name was, Kemal?
- Cemal.

Listen Kemal.

Sometimes, the events
are inside one another.

You know, those dolls right?
Petruska... or patruska?

They are in one another.
Was it petushka? What was their name.

Matryoshka.

Let's say you take one of those
and take it apart.

Another one would come out,
but their faces are similar.

And you can pull apart another one,
and that one would be even smaller.

So they are all nested in one another,
but their faces are inside...

You know what I mean.

So, that's how it is, you know?

- Just Ike petruska dolls...
- Matryoshka.

- What?
- Matryoshka dolls...

Did something happen
to my father?

Matryoshka. Matryo... Matryo...

Sounds a bit strange.
I never looked at it that way...

Who the hell is this?

Don't come. Don't come.

- I can't hear.
- Do not come!

Get away.
Get away from the chickens.

What is it with the chickens?

Get up. He is going
towards the chickens.

What is it with them?

Get away from
the chickens, get away!

This is all so confusing to me.

Easy, easy. Easy.

Dude, relax. I'm not
interested in your chickens.

- I'm Mazhar's son, we're looking for him.
- Get away from the chickens. Get away!

I don't get it.

What happened?
What just happened?

Did the chicken explode?

Did the chicken explode?
What's going on?

Shush shush. Shut up.
Are you crazy?

Why don't you listen?

- What the hell happened?
- Okay, shut up already.

- Is this my blood?
- Kenan, are you okay?

He's fine, sister. It's nothing.

Kenan, what happened?

- Just a chicken exploded is all.
- A chicken exploded?

- A chicken exploded!
- What did?

- The chicken exploded.
- The chicken exploded!

- It's been like this for a week.
- A chicken exploded!

They eat grit for their their gizzards,
to grind the millet, you know?

A gunpowder truck tipped over
in the square last week.

And they thought those
were grains or something.

- They ate all of it.
- All of it.

- Idiots.
- You see the gunpowder...

What the hell are you talking about?
A chicken just exploded!

Exploded right in my face!

That's what
we are talking about.

What brings you here?

We're Mazhar's kids,
we're looking for him.

Kenan, are you
sure you're okay?

I guess I'm okay.
Do you have like a...

Where can I wash my face?

I can't visit him in this state,
after all these years.

Yes, where is his house?

Mazhar is...

Don't you know?

- I thought that's why you're here.
- There must be a mistake.

I remember you.
You left when you where little.

- After your mother...
- What the hell are you saying?

- You best visit the Muhtar.
- I'm already coming from there!

He went on about some nonsense,
Then he ran off and disappeared.

Then visit the Imam,
he knows more.

- Who is the Imam? Where?
- Imam is at the mosque.

And the mosque is that way.

Excuse us please.
Just visit the Imam.

Excuse us.

- You're fine, aren't you?
- I dunno.

Hello, Hodja.

Alaykum Salam.

Come in then.

Suzy, you wait.

Come in my child. You too.

- Please.
- Hodja, we are Mazhar's children.

- Did Mazhar have children?
- He did, us.

- So, what happened?
- So you are them, after all.

You're a dead ringer, truly.

Except, what that all over you?

A chicken exploded.

Yes, nowadays they do.
Anyway, please sit down.

- Here we are.
- Hodja, where are we?

We came this morning,
and nobody is speaking to us.

I went to the Muhtar,
but he ran away somewhere.

Then I asked
the guys with the chickens.

They acted all strange
and sent us to you.

You are right. Yes?

Hodja, what happened to our father?

He died.

He kicked the bucket,
so to speak.

- Kicked the bucket?
- Unfortunately, yes.

- When did he die?
- Yesterday.

- Did he say "kicked the bucket"?
- That was said indeed.

- Kicked the bucket...
- Kicked the bucket...

Where have you been, man?
I've been look all over!

You do?
You left me all by myself.

- I didn't. - You did.
- I didn't. - You did.

I went next door to get water
and gather my strength.

No, I saw you.
You ran and got away.

That's what I'm saying,
I was at the next door.

- You didn't. - I did.
- You didn't

I did but that's not important right now.
I've got news for you.

My brother, your father died.

We know already,
we were just talking.

Oh, you do know.

- Who is this man.
- The Muhtar.

Yes, I am the Muhtar.
You know that as well.

Why aren't you crying?

Are we supposed
to explain ourselves to you?

Muhtar, please, stop.
Here we are, talking.

In a way, you've come
to see your father's funeral.

It was fate.

Bu we came to see our father.

You didn't come to see,
but to bury. It's destiny.

It was God's will...
Our father called us.

My condolences.

Everyone truly liked Mazhar,
the whole village.

They liked my father?

You are the one
from Germany, right?

- Yes.
- Do you live in Germany?

My aunt raised me
after what happened.

I've been there
since I was little.

- What do you do?
- I'm an astronaut.

- Astronaut?
- Yes.

With a helmet and everything?

Good heavens!

Have you ever been to space?

- Hopefully soon, God willing.
- God willing.

I'm also interested. Supernova,
dark matter, energy and stuff.

- You must know Neil Armstrong?
- Hodja!

- Yes, my child.
- What are we going to do now?

What are we going to do?

We can get out and
have a bite to eat or something

It's a rural area after all,
there isn't much to do.

- We can have dinner.
- Yeah.

Not that! What are
we going to do with father?

Oh, the coffin is ready.

For the burial, I mean.

If it's alright, tomorrow
afternoon or evening,

God willing, with the congregation,
we can proceed with the interment.

Would you like
to wash your father?

- Sure.
- Okay.

Then we can meet in
the morning and handle it.

- Alright then.
- See you.

Muhtar, sir, are we going
to stay at our father's?

If you want, we can
arrange some other place.

Let's stay at our father's.

So you've blood all over you.

Yeah.

No, what I mean is, you're coming out
from where the body is, with blood all over.

Anyone who sees you might think,
"Maybe he killed him?".

It's as they say, the murderer always
returns to the scene of the crime.

Like that.

And as always, he's offended...

Cemal brother,

I beg of you not to discuss
space stuff with the Imam.

Imam is acting
strange these days.

"I have worries." he says.

Going on about
black holes and whatnot.

Seismic this, cosmic that...
Are we a coincidence or a connection...

He's obsessed.

He gives a sermon one Friday,
talks about dark matter the next.

We've even appealed to the
Religious Affairs about this.

Please, don't confuse him further.

Or you'll never
hear the end of it.

Tell him that you can't speak. Just say,
"Astronaut Organization prohibits us".

Are you hungry?
I can bring some food.

No, thanks. Thank you.

You've come all this way,
you can't prepare food in this state.

I'll have some food sent to you.

There.

- Thanks.
- My condolences.

My condolences.

After all, what did we expect?

Apparently, he brought us here
to bury him.

- Don't be ridiculous, there's no such thing.
- Yes, there is.

He didn't call us for years.
Then he does.

Now we're here and he's dead.

Kenan, are you really
getting mad at him for dying?

- There must be a mistake.
- There must be a mistake!

Mistake is right here.

The family we born into.

This. This is it.

Our mother hanged herself
with another noose next to her.

Kenan.

The guy kicks us out the door.
Never called or anything for 30 years.

This is it.
These are the mistakes.

He's supposedly insane.

How come everyone likes him,
he helps around the village and so on?

- He left us a letter.
- Who?

- Our father?
- Our names are written on it.

What does it say Suzy?
Read it out loud.

This is his will.

Bury me when the butterflies come.

After the burial, find the black road
at the end of the village.

And follow it.

When there's a fork,
follow the path towards the mountains.

As you follow the gravel road
towards to summit,

a great plane tree will soon appear.

There is a blind shepherd
under that plane tree.

Tell him that you are
Mazhar's children.

Is that it?

What is this, now?

He wants to be buried
when the butterflies come.

What does that mean,
"when butterflies come"?

- He was waiting for us.
- What does that mean?

He was waiting for us.

Of course he was waiting, he called us.

Waiting for the
butterflies too, it seems!

And we'll see the blind shepherd.
He's out of his mind...

Welcome.

Welcome.

- Hello.
- Hello.

My condolences. I got you some food.
You must be tired.

- Oh, you shouldn't have.
- Not at all. It's hot.

- Thank you. Please, come.
- Thank you.

I'm Hatice, the Muhtar's wife.

Is that so?
We met him today.

Oh, how nice.

Eat while it's hot.

It's good that you're here Mrs. Hatice,
I need to ask you something.

What does
"when the butterflies come" mean?

It means when the butterflies come.

Sorry, I sprung
this out of nowhere.

We've just found our
father's will inside.

On the will it says,

"Bury me when butterflies come".
What does that mean?

Oh, that's what you're asking.

Once every year, around this time,
tons of butterflies come here to die.

Outsiders always
gather around and watch.

But we close our doors
and windows and stay inside.

Then we have to use
shovels to clean them up.

That's Mazhar for you...
Goodness me...

When will they be here?

In two shakes of a lambs tail.

First it gets hot,
then they come.

Welp, if you'll excuse me...

You probably
have a lot to talk about.

Okay then...

- Let me accompany you.
- No my child, thank you. Okay.

Our mother's tale.

What tale?

Do you remember Kenan?

"He would follow the butterflies
and wait for them to die."

Don't you remember?

What tale is this?

You were little Suzy,
you wouldn't remember.

Don't you remember?

I don't want to remember anything
anymore today, okay? I've had enough.

Enough already.
"Don't you remember?"

Where are you going?

Are you still awake?

If you didn't like it upstairs,
we can set up a bed here.

What is that tale
you were talking about today?

My mom used to tell us a tale
to put us to sleep when we were little.

It was like a poem.

I can't remember it well.

It was the story of a
man waiting for butterflies.

Who follows the butterflies,

and waits for them to die.

He collects the dead butterflies
and buries them in his skin.

And after two days

thousands of butterfly wings
came out from under the skin.

Then he flies away.

Haven't you slept yet?

I couldn't fall asleep.

- Is Cemal sleeping?
- What?

- Is Cemal sleeping?
- Uh-huh.

Are you hungry?

No.

How are you doing?

It's like I've never lived here.

It's as if I've never lived here.

If I could see him
and know him...

I wish he died
after I had seen him.

Then I would have a father.

We never had a father.

I won't force myself to be sad
after all this time.

Neither should you.

We didn't know him.
That's how it is.

Not quite though. For instance,
you two remember that tale.

Do you remember what you
told me before you came?

What did I say?

- I always think of that.
- What did I say?

"I tried so hard to forget my family."

And?

That really affected me.
I've been thinking about it a lot.

I didn't mean you by that.

No, that's not what I mean.

You're trying hard to forget,

and I'm trying to remember something
that I didn't even experience.

And that's very difficult.

Trying to remember
a memory that you don't have.

What kind of person was my mother?
How did she stroke my hair?

I'm fabricating memories.

And after a while, it's as if
that I'm actually remembering them.

Like they really happened.

There's a light
coming through her hair.

When she's putting me to sleep.
There's a moment like that in my mind.

And a light comes
through her hair.

The touch of her hand...

But then I realize,

I don't even know what
color my mom's hair was.

I don't know
if that moment was real.

Did she ever tell me
that tale or not?

Like...

I am remembering the memories
that I've made up in my mind,

in actuality.

Chances are,
none of them are real.

Then, what was my
father's voice like, for instance?

How was his hand?

It's as if they never lived.

Like I've never lived.

- Anyway I should go to bed.
- Can I have a cigarette.

Where will you sleep?

I'm going to sleep
in my father's bed.

We laid down a futon for Cemal,
and you can crash on the couch.

Can you get me a towel?

Okay.

- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.

Mom used to tell
that tale to you the most.

She'd put you to sleep first.

We would listen to
it while she told it to you.

You would sleep right away.

Her hair was brown.

Hodja.

Yes?

Let's go and sort this business out.

Muhtar, you are aware
of my state of mind.

Why do you even
bring this up right now?

Why make me sin?

When there's all this
stuff going on in my head.

Hodja then, when?

Listen, Muhtar,
Ayah 286 of the Al-Baqara Surah:

"God does not burden of any soul
more than they can bear."

- Just, give me some time.
- Muhtar. Hodja.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Hello.

I wanted to talk to you
about my father's funeral.

Yes, we were waiting for you.

We can do it in the afternoon.

Yes but, we found
his will yesterday.

"Bury me when
the butterflies come." it says.

He wants to be buried
when the butterflies come?

That's what it says on the will.

- What do we do, Hodja?
- What do we do...

Now, Mr. Cemal,

- Cemal was it? The Astronaut.
- Kemal.

- It's Cemal, Hodja.
- Cemal.

Well, we were all ready to go.

So, let's sort out that business.

Then we'll take care of yours.

- Is the day certain?
- No, it isn't

They'll be here as the heat rises.
Should be any day now.

We'll talk later.

People have gathered,
come on, let's do this.

You go ahead. I'll come.

Hodja!

Get going already,
and so help me God...!

Mr. Cemal, once you have time,
we'll discuss those other matters.

"Discuss the matters", he says.
Pay no mind to him.

He has lost it...

- Good Morning.
- Good morning.

What the laugh?

I never once saw
someone sleep like that.

And how was I sleeping?

- How was I sleeping, tell me.
- You looked so funny.

What are you laughing?

Did you prepare this?

Cemal brother prepared it.

It figures...

- Where is Cemal?
- He's out.

He went to talk about
the funeral with the Muhtar.

- What about it?
- To postpone it.

Are we really going to wait?

That is his will.

Where are you? You laughed
a bunch and left! Pour me a tea.

- Welcome.
- Thank you, hello.

- Welcome brother.
- Hello.

Everyone is here I see...

Hodja is on his way.

You want to discuss the
chicken issue, so I've heard.

- What is it?
- Why don't we call a vet?

We did ask for one.
We notified the governor.

What did he say?

What do you mean Hatice? Talking as if
you aren't my wife and don't know.

Okay then, what did he say?

Weren't you there
when he was talking?

Why are you doing this?

- Any other question?
- What did he say, though?

He said "Wait.", Hüseyin.

- How long has this been happening?
- Ever since that truck tipped over.

Hatice you better be quiet
or you might regret it.

I'm very angry with you.
For pity's sake, be quiet.

Since that truck tipped over.

Yes, exactly! These
chickens ate the gunpowder.

Their bodies are filled with it.

- Kenan?
- What?

Come here for a minute.

Look.

He collected all of these.

THE BOTTOM OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD
IS LOSING VIEWERSHIP

Oh wow.

He cut out the TV guides.

Are you okay?

I'll get some air.

- Where are you going?
- I'll look for Cemal brother.

My stupid fucking face...

What am I to do?
I'm not a vet.

I've spoken with the governor
and explained the situation.

If anyone else has a better idea,
let us know.

What other choice do we have?

That's enough of the chickens.
Let's talk about the rain.

Just as the Hodja is here. Hodja!

Let's talk.

Sure. Let's talk.

Hodja, you know
how long it's been...

Our village has been
dealing with the drought.

- Our crops have dried up.
- That's right.

And we cannot dig either.
We're worn out after digging a grave.

This is why we've gathered, Hodja.
That's why we called you.

We want to say a rain prayer.

- What's he gonna say, anyway?
He'll talk nonsense as always. - Shh.

Huh, Hodja?
Let's say a rain prayer.

Let's go out,
and say our prayers.

When should we go, Hodja?

So I...

So you what?

The rain prayer
is a part of our religion, no?

- It is.
- And?

Okay then.
Let's go out and do it.

The villagers will
feel better too.

How about tomorrow.
Let's go tomorrow, why not?

Then this...

matter of the rain prayer...

The rain prayer...

I can't do it, Muhtar.

- What do you mean?
- I can't.

You all know how I'm feeling.

Talking about a rain prayer.
For the love of God, a rain prayer!

So you're saying, God should
pour rain down on this village, no?

Yes, that's right.

- My friend, what rain?
- Yes, that's what we're saying.

Let's say he hears us.
Let's say he hears everything,

and answers everything.

The one who
created the entire universe...

How many galaxies
are there in the universe,

and how many
planets just like ours?

Put that all aside,

and bring rain to Hasanlar.

Should he deal with this?
Huh? With this?

Why should God
care about your rain? Why?

What nonsense
are you spewing out, Hodja?

This is a matter of balance.

The rain that falls on Hasanlar,
is the rain that misses Çoraklar.

Don't they also want rain?

Hodja, what are you saying?

It's a matter of natural balance.

Are you a Hodja or
a pain in the neck?

Did you get a sun-stroke?

Is God is your servant?
Perish the thought... May he forgive me.

You disturb the order of nature,
and ruin everything.

Then you have a nerve to ask.
"Bring rain here, bring rain there."

God is a luxury. God doesn't rush
to deal with every little thing.

Hodja, calm down a little.

But you too friends,
remain calm, please.

Hodja, your nerves are shot.

A change of weather, or a rain,
would be good for you too.

Not-in-Te-res-ted. I'm telling you,
God is not interested.

God isn't interested with your rain.
There won't be a prayer!

- Who says so?
- A chicken!

I say, damn it! I'm the Imam,
do you know better?

This village is a loony town.
Everyone is crazy.

Chickens exploded again.

I fucked the whole place up.
Everything I touch seems to break.

Did you take a shower?
Should've taken off your clothes first.

Don't go in there
with bare feet, it's a mess.

- Where's Suzy?
- She went looking for you.

- Boys, are you up for a raki night?
- "Boys, are you up for a raki night?"

Where are you come from?

Beside my father's body.

Are you okay?

Come on, give me a hand.

Kenan, you wash those tomatoes,

I'll grill the eggplant,
for the salad.

And you peel those cukes. Tzatziki.

Were you there all day?
I didn't see you.

But I saw you. You went
past me with the Imam.

You should've hollered at me.

I pulled up a chair next to my father,
and I started thinking.

There's something strange
about him calling us here.

We left here after a death.
And we came back after another death.

And now we are together.

Who broke this?

I'll take care of it.

Why are you laughing?

I'm a little on edge.
Our mother is there...

Perish the thought...

Our father is in the mortuary...
And we're in an atmosphere like this.

I read a news story about a
suicide the other day. In a newspaper.

Excuse me. A man committed
suicide in Düsseldorf.

Before committing suicide...

he left a note.

- Do you know what it says on the note?
- What does it say?

This really is true!

- "Manchmal bin ich sehr..."
- What?

"Manchmal bin ich sehr traurig."

- So...
- What is it?

"Sometimes, I am so sad."

So, sometimes I get sad,
but like, I'm not sad all the time!

That's why I'm
committing suicide!

As I read that note, like,
people around me are looking at me like,

"What is this guy laughing for?"
After I read those...

They coldly stared at me,
thinking, "Is this guy crazy?".

Sometimes, I am so sad.

Good to have
you here guys. Cheers.

Pardon me.

Phew...

You didn't play my
song in the car, you dirty dogses.

"Dirty dogses"? Gonna badmouth again?
Get a hold of yourself.

Oh come on, lay off of me.

So what'll you do,
sing it yourself?

Wait...

Where is she going?

What's she gonna go?

Fucking hell,
who left this here...

Listen, I'm scared
of her when she's drunk.

She turns into
a truck driver when she drinks.

Mr. Driver?

Shut up!

(Let's Leave This Place) ♪

What was this one?

So 90s...

"Duymak Istiyorum" is up next.
Cemali will come singing.

There was a guy
named Cemali, right?

Not one guy,
they were two brothers.

This is Nazan Öncel, right?

Tell my lover to wait for the spring.

Bravo, Suzy!

Let the branches of the willow
not bend today.

Let my brother
not come say goodbye.

Let nobody upset
the mother's sweetheart.

Let my brother
not come say goodbye.

Let nobody upset
the mother's sweetheart.

Let's leave this place.

Come on!

I can't cope.

Let's leave this place.

I can't forget.

Let's leave this place.

I can't cope.

Oh, let's leave this place.

Sitting beside my father today...

Yesterday I talked to you about
not remembering, yes?

So?

There was a veil between us.

Did you remove it?

I didn't.

I couldn't do it.

I was afraid that
I would see a stranger.

I couldn't do it.

I really couldn't.
After all this time... I dunno.

This is how it is.

When he called me,
I didn't recognize his voice.

I hung up the phone.

Then I waited for a week,
not doing anything.

Should I come, or not?

That's why I understand you, Kenan.

You did what?

Back at your place,
you were saying that you won't come.

- I can understand why.
- Did you say, you've waited for a week?

- Yes, I didn't know what to do.
- So you waited a week.

Did you wait for
a week to call us?

So, we didn't actually
set off as soon as he called.

No Suzy, I couldn't do it.

So if we were to come
immediately, oh my God,

we could've seen
our father alive?

Did he die while
he was waiting for us?

What could I do?
A call came after 20 years.

I couldn't call you right away.

What's wrong with you?
He called us, saying "Come at once".

He died two days ago.

So you're saying he died
while he was waiting for us.

Kenan, get real,
what are you talking about?

I convinced you to come,
or you wouldn't be here at all.

Suzy and I made you come,
with cries and pleas.

You were making fuss like a kid:
"I'm not coming!"

Now you act like a big man,
ask why we didn't come earlier?

I'm saying you had no right.
It was up to me to decide.

And I'm saying that you wouldn't be here
if it was up to you. As if you give an eff...

How could you wait
for a week to call us?

I don't get how you
decided this, all by yourself.

No, really,
why didn't you tell us earlier?

Suzy, I am saying,
"I couldn't do it.", see?

You couldn't.

You couldn't. Is that so?
He couldn't tell us.

Couldn't tell...

You couldn't tell.

- You know how to repeat
the same shit 40 times! - Kenan.

What are we doing here?
What've we been doing for two hours?

Playing family? Huh?

We don't have it in us, really.

We bury him tomorrow. Then we scatter.
Everyone on their own way.

Tomorrow, everyone
goes on their own way.

Couldn't tell...

Always the same, always the same.
It's always something.

It's always the same, Cemal.
I've had enough. Enough!

Always the same. Always.

Tomorrow we bury him.
Then we scram. You got that?

I just couldn't tell...

...let his resting place be a garden,
from the garden of heaven.

Psst, what is all this?

Beekeeper suit?

- Astronaut, I think.
- Forgive his sins, O Lord.

Grant strength and patience
to those that are left behind.

- Everybody's talking about you.
- Amen.

When the day comes,
when we too walk this path, grant us Quran.

I've never witnessed
such stupidity.

Dear congregation, do you give
your blessings to the late Mazhar,

on his journey to the after life,
and bestow all your favors as halal?

Let it be Halal.

- Do you?
- Let it be Halal.

- Do you forgive him?
- We do.

May the Almighty God accept
your bestowal and testimony.

Amen.

He stopped.

Not now. Don't start now.

- Friends...
- There he goes...

Friends, I know.

Neither the time nor the place.

But, you see...

If not now or tomorrow,
then when?

Hojda, let us continue, shall we?

Continue what, Muhtar?
The prayer?

Hodja.

He goes to heaven
and not hell, is that it?

Hodja, go on, say the prayer.

This happened, this will happen...
Continue to that?

Listen Hodja, finish the prayer,
so that we can be on our way.

No, I won't

Bloody hell...

I won't.

Hodja, are you crazy?
We are at a funeral.

Look, his children
came from all over. Please.

Are you ill or are you insane?
Or do you want a beating?

What is wrong with you?

Mr. Muhtar, my brother.

What if they don't exist.
Heaven or hell.

What if it's a void?
What if there's only darkness?

Hodja! If it's dark, then it's dark!
Why the hell do you care?

Now, start!
And be done with this!

Am I supposed to do it?
I'm not the Hodja!

Finish it so we can go.

What's wrong with darkness?

Listen. Listen to what
Ayah 260 of Al-Baqara surah, says.

Abraham, peace be upon him, once said,

"O Lord,

show me how you
resurrect the dead."

God responded, “Do you not believe?”

He replied, “Yes I do,

I want this, just so
my heart can rest reassured.”

Goodness gracious...

- So?
- Oh...

God forgive us, Hodja.
Resurrecting the dead?

We have a funeral.
Let's bury him and go.

You got us wrong,
there won't be a resurrection.

What resurrection?

No, no. There is no resurrection.

I'm not talking about resurrection.

What I'm saying is,

even Abraham, peace be upon him,
may venture to doubt.

- So?
- So,

I can't say a prayer
that I'm not sure of.

I'm trying to tell you,
but you don't understand.

Hüseyin, you know about this.
I am having have dreams, you see?

I can't do it.

I'll show you dreams and prayers!

Hodja! Don't run!

Hodja!

Fuck my life...
Every damn time...

Man, I really hope
they catch him and...

How many times is this now?

What just happened?

This ain't nothing. You should've
seen last Friday’s prayer...

- Doesn't help that Zahid's a hothead.
- Psycho. He doesn't stay calm either.

And the Hodja goes on and on...
Let's just bury him and be done!

- Come on, get up.
- Give us a hand.

- Whadaya keep doing?
- Just getting these together...

They'll be here soon,
come help.

I'm not thinking straight...

So, what...?
Where are you going?

They'll catch and convince the Imam.
Then they will call us.

They'll get him...

What if they can't?
Do we leave the grave as is?

No, don't you worry.
They'll make him to come.

They'll get him.

We aren't burying him
in accordance with his will.

Let it stay like this for now.
I'll go and get the Imam.

No, it can't stay like this.
He'll be food for birds and animals.

Okay, Suzy, I'll handle it.

What will you handle?

How can you not tell us? Dumbhead.

And you came all the here
in your astronaut suit.

What is wrong with you?

Kenan, be quiet for God's sake.

You're too edgy right now.
I'm not gonna argue.

I'll go and get them.

You'll leave your father
just like you left me.

Kenan.

Do you know what did
your brother do?

Did he ever tell you?

Kenan, that's enough.

We are at our father's funeral.

This has absolutely
nothing to do with you.

Stop being a coward
and face with this.

Am I the coward?

When our mother died,
I found her first.

Another noose hung beside her.

Your brother entered the room when
I was trying to put it around my neck.

You know what he did?

He turned back and ran.

It is so.

This is the truth, whether you run
or cover your ears.

This is why you
never call me, I know.

I know.

But this is how it is...

You left your little brother there.

You left him.

You were my big brother.

I used to admire you.

You just left me there.

And now you have the
nerve to call me a coward.

Am I the coward?

Am I the coward?

Am I the coward, huh?

You ran away! You did!

Like that wasn't enough,
you became an astronaut,

trying to go all the way
to fucking space!

If I was tall enough, I would be dead.
Do you understand that?

You idiot. Don't you think
mother knew our heights?

Who did she choose
to take along?

Which one of us
was tall enough?

I didn't run away
from you, Kenan.

- I never did!
- Enough!

Enough!

Enough!

Why are you telling me all this?

What are you telling me all this for?

There was an image in my mind,
until I've met you.

You've ruined it all.

There isn't a single photo
where we are together.

You've shat all over
the one in my mind!

When we got together in the car
and in that shitty club, after all this time,

I became an another person.

I didn't notice until I saw you,

I had a pain right here.

I didn't notice it, because it was
always there, since I was born.

But I always
had a pain right here!

What the hell
are you talking about?

Look at yourself!

Look at yourself!

Your father is in the grave!
Our father is in the grave!

Just bury him already!
Bury him!

Bury him!

Do we fulfill the will?

Hello.

We are the Mazhar's children.

Mazhar's children.

Sit down. Sit down.

Sit down.

I was waiting for you.

Three years ago.

It was the rain season.

The rain was so heavy,
falling so hard.

It was as if the sky was torn,

and was about to
come crashing down.

I was soaking wet. All wet.

I had nowhere to go.

I knocked on
your father's door.

He took me inside.

He gave me a hot bowl of soup.

He shared his bread with me.

The rain was so heavy that
the ceiling was leaking.

I went up to the roof.

I repaired it.

For this,

you owe me 500 liras.

(The Daughter of Binboga) ♪

Why are you laughing?

Get outta here!

Get up, let's go.

Blind shepherd...
Is this a fucking fairy tale?

I left my father's house years ago.

500 liras, he says...

One day, fate brought
you in front of me.

You were here a moment,
but disappeared the next. Like a mirage.
