Set in a small town in the heart of Anatolia, the cradle of civilizations, the film tells the story of people searching for something of vital importance to them... Will these people, some seeking a spouse, some money, some water, and some prestige, find what they are looking for?

MovieDocumentary
The film focuses on the development of the cinematography in the 1890s (which in turn significantly altered the perception of the 20th century art) and how it spread within the Ottoman territory.
