I turned thirteen that summer...
...and it was the last summer of my childhood.
Three loaves of bread.
- Here you go. - Slow, slow.
Man, you've hit sixty and still eating bread...
...with honey and clotted cream.
You'll get sick to your stomach.
Come on dad. You and I are not the same. Stop eating that.
Then he starts feeling sick. It's as if he can't breathe anymore.
Stop insulting your own dad, enough.
Stop with this screaming, you.
I'm not sure whether that's a laugh or a scream.
Here you go grandpa, eat this.
Doctor's advice, unsalted goat's cheese.
What a joke. Let me see you eat that!
Dad, your daughter-in-law and grandchild are on their way. No more cursing!
- Here you go dad. - Thank you.
- Good morning. - Good morning.
Why don't you sit down to have breakfast?
I'm so late mom. I have to leave right now.
I doubt that this kid is yours, he looks nothing like you.
Tell me, whose love child is this?
The last subject to be discussed was my manhood, enough of this!
Dad, you have no limits.
You really can't speak like this in front of this child.
Am I to learn about limits from you? Who exactly do you think you are?
Anyhow, you're no child of mine!
I have to leave now.
I had a meeting, I'm already so late. I'll drop him off.
Good.
The Brits will be here in a few days...
...we have to put everything in order.
We can't really welcome them in the state that we are in.
Mom, I'm going.
Grand grandpa, only two hours left until I get my report card.
I'm sure you'll start thinking about my bicycle with the gears.
Depends on the report card.
The more A's, the more gears for the bicycle, okay?
Get moving man!
Shut the door!
Stop crying.
Your dad won't do anything because you failed two subjects.
You don't know my father. It was either the honor roll or else!
Ege, are you coming to play ball with us?
You go ahead, I have things to do.
- Hi Bahar. - Hi Ege.
You're here for the summer, right?
- Yep. What about you? - So am I.
My parents say we should go to Izmir but I don't want to.
What'll I do there? My friends are here. You're here.
Then I'll see you at the beach?
Of course you will.
At the beach.
You senile morons...
...why do you still continue to nag about the factory?
Here you go. All of it is gone.
It's all destroyed, nothing's left of it.
One day I'm gonna blow up all this mess...
Come on, you're still not done?
- We are all done! - Dad...
You dishonest dog! Come here you loser.
You damn thief.
I knew that you were selling those...
...but I wasn't able to catch you doing it.
What're you talking about!
I'm counting them because I knew something was wrong.
You're counting them with the porters? You nasty thief!
Come here!
And you have your men with you!
Where the ones who stole my keys?
Get over here, I said get over here!
Careful, you're going to hurt yourself.
You're all the same, damn you all! You are all the same kind!
Come here!
He's an impostor. I told you.
But of course you didn't listen to me.
My son Asaf would be here, he gave you lesson.
And you're the one who sent this loser to England to become a man!
All the money, we spent on him.
Now there's no diploma, no job.
You are both losers!
Quiet dad, this is disgraceful.
What disgrace? Everyone here knows what a bunch of losers you all are.
You destroyed a great factory, disgraced our family's name.
Go to hell, all of you!
We need a fourth player.
Run away, let's see how far you get.
You good for nothing bastard!
You'll have a heart attack, come here.
Look who's talking, you ugly old broad!
Dad!
What's happening? Why is grandpa screaming?
I don't know, he must be angry with someone again.
Then I'll show him my report card later, at a better time.
Show it to me.
Nothing new dad, honor roll again.
Well done son! Here you go.
- Dad, I want to start working. - Good idea.
Have a word with Rasim please so I can...
...start working with him by the beach.
Good idea, you devil.
Wish I had those girls in their bikinis in my office...
...so I could work happily ever after.
Is that an okay then?
Okay, I'll have a word with Rasim.
You were saying you never wanted to see Arifoglu again but there he is...
...in the best of the best positions in the field, like a king.
I'm going to hurt you so bad...
...you won't even know what hit you, man!
God, I should have been five years younger, then watch me.
As if we don't know what you looked like five years ago.
Nothing's changed!
What the hell do you know?
Come on, throw it!
I'm telling you to throw it.
Man, he's dead.
No way!
He was looking at the broad as well!
- My condolences. - Thank you.
Take this.
Start from the head and pour all the way to the feet.
Go ahead.
Do we have a fourth player left from our group for the game?
Nope, we have to start recruiting from the younger ones.
Ziya, you have another hour to play. It was in his will.
No stopping, whatsoever.
What did your grandpa always tell you, did you already forget?
Didn't he say no crying when he died?
Come on, stop crying, no crying.
My condolences.
We are all very sad.
I feel just horrible.
You see. One minute we are here and the next we are gone.
One never knows if we'll see the morning.
One understands the importance of...
...their loved ones, after they're gone.
Next to you, to make sure that you're not disliked by them.
There's no use crying after it's too late.
Grandma, you're coming over right?
I am, my dear.
What about the future of the factory?
Now that everything's different?
I'll make a decision soon.
Your dad will never leave that place for you. There's no way.
I have projects. No one can stand in the way of a running river!
Cheers to Arifoglu!
Oh man, oh man! The hero of heroes!
The great Arif Efe!
Have you lost your mind?
You're a disgrace to everyone.
You've been humiliated.
Unbelievable. This is a dead man's home. Get up...
We're drinking our sorrows away.
Yeah...
Let's go man, let's go.
Come on, cut him some slack.
The guy has lost his oldest friend...
...let him handle his suffering his way.
I'll make him suffer at home. Let's move it.
And you're not ashamed to make an 85-year-old man drink like this?
I think I'm late.
Asaf.
God, give me patience, wisdom. Where did he come from?
God, save us from the souls of the dead!
Someone goes, someone comes.
Dad, dad.
Run, bring some cologne water for my dad.
Then is this my Uncle Asaf?
I swear to God that's him. Isn't that him?
Uncle! My dear uncle!
Thank you dear God! Let me kiss your holy hand!
- Welcome back uncle. - Hello again.
- Are you Kemal? - Yes uncle.
Come and sit over here.
My granddad passed away. Gone, sooner than his time.
Nevin.
Let me wash my hands first, this trip has exhausted me.
Of course uncle.
Take me upstairs Kemal, I don't feel well.
Come here Dad.
Tell them all to go away, enough of this foolishness...
...I've had enough of your masquerades.
Start walking, move it.
Grandma... Stop.
Where are you off to, grandma?
I thought you were staying. What happened?
I must go dear Ege.
Is that the guy that grand granddad always talked about?
Yes, he's your granddad's brother.
- The soldier one? - Yeah.
Didn't he die?
Pass the bread.
Kemal, where are they?
Who?
Azmi and Asaf.
Upstairs.
Azmi...
Asaf...
Come down.
What kind of people are you?
Why did you lie to me?
Why go on for forty years with this lie?
Don't you have any answers for me?
What's going on grandma?
Nothing my dear. Go to bed now.
For whom I cried for fourty years...
I won't be able to see him again.
You're right.
But with time...
...you will get used to being without him as you got...
...used to being with him.
You'll always remember the good times...
...you spent with him.
You will start to say luckly I knew him.
You'll remember him with a smile on your face.
All the the good memories that stay with you.
The same goes for your granddad.
You'll be proud to have met him.
You'll always think of him by a smile.
You will get used to his absence.
I already miss him.
Where's Asaf? Isn't he coming down?
I don't know, he wasn't in his room.
He must have left early in the morning.
What's the damn time? You're being lazy until now?
I wake up early at my age but...
...this guy doesn't give a damn.
Of course he has no work no responsibility.
I'm leaving soon anyhow. I'm going to the office.
What the hell will you do there?
You're continuing with the sales you good-for-nothing businessman?
Do you know what this lying, cheating husband...
...of yours was doing there?
He was stealing the old jugs at the factory...
... and selling them for peanuts! - Come on dad!
You're not embarrassed in front of me at least be ashamed in front of her!
- How long will he stay here? - Who?
Who else? Asaf. Your hero uncle.
The one whose hands you kissed upon seeing!
I don't know, he didn't say.
What did you talk about yesterday?
Nothing important.
Because of him the inheritance has become a mess now.
We must discuss this problem all together...
...without any further delay.
The Brits are arriving next week with all their plans and projects!
It's only been two days for God's sake!
Are you a vulture?
The arrogant Brits! They just couldn't make it sooner!
If I ever see you touching one of the jugs again...
...I'll really become your worst nightmare.
They're grandpa's keepsakes. I hope you hear me well!
You poor girl, the unhappiness we caused...
...you by marrying you to this fool.
My unhappiness compared to what you caused others is so irrelevant.
Did he convince you that he would get you...
...a bicycle when you got your report card?
Was that a lie then? The promise he made...
...about a bicycle with gears?
Not exactly.
He once got me and your grandfather one bicycle to share.
But when we start high school.
We were rebels but without the bicycle dream...
...we would have flunked early on.
Anyhow, I was slowly losing all hope.
I was planning on buying one with the money...
...I would make over the summer.
Look, the apprentice is here. You sure are early.
- Good morning Rasim. - Hello, I'm Rasim.
- Good morning, how are you? - Very well, and how about you?
Good, thanks. You all have a good day now.
- I must be going. - Good bye uncle.
Good day.
Well, now that the schools are out, this place will get packed.
Let's see how well you'll handle it?
- I will handle it very well. - You sure will handle it well.
Let me tell you from the start, there's no time to flirt with the girls.
Hi there you Brit!
Hello to you, how are you?
Fine... Where are you off to?
Our son's swimming trunks are old.
He brought an excellent report card...
...so as thinking of getting him flashy new ones as a gift.
You all have a good day.
Same to you my dear Brit, Kemal boy!
Welcome Kemal. What can I do for you?
The cash register's slip was finished...
...you were supposed to get a refill.
Now I can't give Kemal a receipt. Make it quick. Okay?
All right, I'm on my way.
Have your lunch too while you're out.
All right, then I won't be able to make it back before an hour.
My dearest, my queen.
I haven't paid enough attention to you these past days...
...but we have all been deeply affected by my grandfather's death, you know.
You dirty liar!
You used to drop by every damn day before.
But now it's only whenever your heart desires.
Now that he's out of the picture, everything's all mine.
Soon we're going to have everything we ever wanted.
I will treat you as if you're Queen Elizabeth.
Not now, someone will see.
- You think I care? - No Kemal, stop. Not now.
Stop girl.
Let's keep some for tonight.
Stop it.
Bahar, this is for you.
But I didn't ask for anything.
This is from me.
Thank you.
Well... Do you work here?
Yes, I'm helping out Rasim. I'm going to be around from now on.
If you need anything call me.
Okay, thanks again Ege, thank you.
Hüsnü! You dishonest postman! Come over here, come!
Run away then! As if I won't be able to find you in this rat hole town!
Are you tired yet my boy?
- Two bottles of soda please. - Coming up.
Here.
What's this daydreaming? I wanted two sodas!
- For who? - For the lady.
- He's over the clouds... - Here Miss.
Azmi, Asaf, come down now.
Neither of them are here Necmi.
We'll pick them up on our way then.
Metin made a pass at Feyyaz.
Asaf. Asaf. Get in, we're going.
We're going to get plastered. To celebrate your return!
Where are you hurrying off to? Go ahead, I'll find you guys later.
What's with all this reluctance? We'll just have a few drinks, let's go!
Mean Asaf! It's a once in a lifetime opportunity!
Get in, we're going to the ruined house.
What ruined house? You guys need some excitement!
Come on, let's make a fire, prepare the barbecue and toast to Asaf's return!
Okay then, count me in too!
- See you then Alp. - See you.
We're so late.
See you later Ege.
See you later Bahar.
Let's take him along as well.
Hop in, we're going to have a party!
Come over here, the worst of all the postmen, come here right now.
- Hello grandma. - Welcome my dearest!
How are you, grandma?
Fine, what's this my dear? Stop. Let me see.
Why were you in such a hurry?
I'm going to the disco tonight.
- Whose idea was this? - It's just a friend.
Well, who is this friend?
Bahar, she's a friend from school.
Look at you, my baby. This Bahar, is she pretty?
Very much so!
I don't want an ugly daughter-in-law!
No, she is not like that grandma!
One day I might introduce her to you but there's still time for that.
You bring her along, I can't let you go that easy.
I must see my bride.
I haven't said anything to my parents.
It will be our secret then.
What the hell did you do? You stupid man! Why the hell did you tell Asaf?
I've kept this secret for 40 years!
I sent a telegraph when Uncle Asaf died.
My heart wouldn't let me do otherwise!
I'll show you your heart with my own bare hands!
You think it's the easy way out?
There is no easy way out!
What are you going on and on about? What's going on?
Nothing that you should worry about.
This is not the way to cook this, damn!
The poor thing has shrunk!
What the hell do you know? I'm a fishmonger's son!
If so, what're you doing in this shop?
Fill it up.
Okay, let's start enjoying ourselves.
This is what you give me! You drink it.
Give me a manly portion! A lot!
Then don't start with all the bullshit about feeling numb and seeing double!
We had guts then! How old were we?
We swam across to the island all the way...
...from here just to see two seals.
It was you actually who insisted on swimming.
We held on tightly to each other, we were trembling.
My dad, the great Arifoglu...
...didn't leave one single stone unturned looking for me.
I never ever forgot the spanking you got that day.
Those were the days.
We've grown older, my friend. We have grandchildren now.
That's water under the bridge. Dirty water, clear water.
Let's forget everything.
Let's become the brothers on the island once again.
Let's continue from where we left off.
How is that possible Azmi? While I walk around you guys like a ghost?
Bring your family, settle down here, let's become a family in the house again.
I don't have any family Azmi.
What do you mean? All these years?
Didn't happen. I was never able to build a life of my own...
...while looking for the answers to all the questions in my mind.
Answers to your questions aren't here, you're wasting your time here.
If I wanted an answer from you I would have asked for it many years ago.
Okay, everyone to the table. Except Necmi.
And why is that?
You've had more than your share!
Come on, call your dad.
Dad, table's ready, we're waiting for you.
You guys go ahead, I won't be eating.
He's not going to eat, mom.
- How was your Grandma? - Fine. Like always.
Tell me, how was your day my dear?
That brutal Rasim didn't make you work too hard, I hope?
I ran around the whole day but it was great!
And you know mom, I'm not even one bit tired.
Of course you're not. Whose son are you?
Just like your father, you will one day become a great businessman.
You'll realize how much fun it is to work when you get your first paycheck.
When your dad puts everything in order...
...we'll get you a nice yacht and let it sail around elegantly!
I will conquer the whole Aegean Coast with my son!
- My dearest son! - Where are you going Kemal?
I have a business dinner tonight. I'm on my way there.
It might go on late, don't wait up.
Mom, can I go to the disco?
My son the vagabond!
You're frequenting the discos now?
Kemal.
Here, take this.
You can go, but don't be too late.
Slow down.
Where are you going?
We can't accept anyone underage.
But my classmates just went in a few minutes ago!
They've grown tall and you stayed short.
Now, go back home and drink your milk.
You'll get taller by next year, then we'll look into the matter again.
Go now!
I'm so fed up with making love like high school kids...
...at a shop's corner.
My beauty! You think I like this?
Everything will be done by its turn.
And at the correct time and place...
...I will marry you, you are my destiny.
You forgot last month's payment. I can't get anything for the shop.
You're still after tiny calculations while I tell you that we're...
...going to sell the factory and become filthy rich.
In two days the buyers will be in town. I need cash.
Life's a joint effort, love.
We must be patient a little longer.
Why did you park so close to mine? Move your ancient heap!
Ancient? She's a beauty, my beauty.
You look at your own ancient heap.
We'll meet again soon.
Give me the keys, let me drive.
Won't give it to anyone else but you!
Take good care of it now.
Get out, I'll drive. You drink like there's no tomorrow.
You're not being nice!
You don't deserve being nice to! I just don't want to die yet!
Slow down, what the hell are you doing?
Shut up, you coward! Let's hear it Ziya!
What the hell is he doing?
All he wants is to compete all the time.
We'll die Azmi!
No one can even read my plate.
We're all going to die!
What the hell were you thinking Azmi?
Damn the car that you drive!
I can't open the door. Help me.
I can't open the door. Don't leave me here.
My clarinet is missing.
It's okay, I'll manage. No need for bravery right now.
He's here. He said nothing would happen but...
...I convinced him to come over.
- How rude. - I'm late mom, see you later.
- Bye grandma. - Good bye my son.
- Welcome mom. - Hello Aysel. How is he?
Like a child.
God, why do you always make me suffer?
Azmi, aren't you embarrassed to make...
...such a big deal out of two tiny scratches?
You include him in your game too.
Kemal, don't you dare call the doctor.
It'll be a waste of time for the doctor.
I'm here because my grandson asked me to come Azmi...
...for your information.
Tell me whatever it is you must.
What is there to say, the car went off the shoulder of the road.
I suspect internal bleeding.
Take back what you said, right now. I know everything Azmi, everything.
I ran into Necmi, he told me everything.
Really?
You were stuck in the door, it was Asaf who pulled you out, that's what he said.
A totally bogus story. I was about to get out on my own.
Bring me some water, Kemal.
Nevin, you know I nearly died.
Even then I only thought of you.
Azmi, stop talking nonsense, are you trying to make me go crazy?
Never forget, Azmi, that the only bond between us is my grandson.
Take care.
Kemal! Kemal!
I'm really fed up!
Run away scoundrels, you must have a lot to catch up on.
Dad, the water...
Enough of this daddy, water nonsense.
Get me some pain killers.
On your way, drop your mom at home.
You think you're talking to a child?
- Where to uncle? - I'm going to drop by Davut's.
Come. I can drop you.
Mom, come, let me drop you at home.
Dad has really become unbearable, Mom.
With you, I assume he was a real angel. He's so intolerable.
At this rate, he'll be worse than granddad.
I've dealt with him all these years, now it's your turn.
But you just can't talk any sense into him. It's as if I'm still a kid.
You would expect him to be embarrassed in front of his family.
I'm so fed up. I have no peace, no confidence left.
Uncle, shall we go to the factory today?
I want you to take a look at it.
All right, we'll go and look around.
I'll be there in two minutes.
Do you think that all these years spent were the happiest forty years of my life?
Do you believe it was any different than an exile's life?
This place was always in my thoughts as I was being...
...dragged around different corners of the world.
Then why didn't you come back?
Why prefer to live the life of a dead man?
Because it was the easy way out.
How do you know I never returned? I did.
I saw you next to Azmi with a baby in your arms.
What should I have done?
Should I have had a painful existence in this town, totally helpless?
Now you're blaming me?
Even your parents thought you were dead.
I was left as a widow in this town, long before I was even married.
And where were you then Asaf?
Did you have to marry my brother as soon as you found out I was dead?
Everything is my father's fault. He made everyone's life hell.
Shop owners were fed up with him too.
Stop looking around kid.
- Bring us two lemonades and three colas. - Excuse me?
Two lemonades and three colas. Are you deaf or what?
- Bahar, do you want anything? - I'll have a cola too.
We already gave you the orders. Move it, quick.
No lemonade or cola for you. Learn to speak properly first.
What, are you the king of this joint? What's with the attitude?
Rasim is the king, and I'm the prince.
The machines have all rusted over time.
There is no way we can meet the finances of trying to fix this place up.
Do we have such capital, uncle? If we do, let's get to work now.
After all, it's my granddad's business.
Thinking of selling the whole place is very painful for me too.
- What does your father think? - My father doesn't give a damn.
After my mother divorced him he stopped coming to the factory.
God is my witness, there is only this factory left from everything...
...the Arifoglu family had.
All these years, it's me who's taken care of this factory.
You will stay, yes uncle? At least until the inheritance is all settled?
I don't know Kemal, we'll see.
Let's go and eat, we'll be able to talk more comfortably...
...about this subject.
I want to stay a bit longer Kemal.
Right. All the memories. Let me leave you alone.
How dare you accuse me?
I've waited all these years for a dead man.
I shed all my tears for him.
Am I responsible for everything that has happened Asaf?
I've loved only one man in my life.
And he died forty years ago.
Nevin...
Look at the way he stands up for everyone when he wants to!
Come on. We are here to talk about what has been going on.
I spoke with him today. After forty years.
We still shiver when we look at each other, despite the time...
...our feelings are the same.
I can't leave this place. I won't leave.
I will die in this place close to my loved ones.
What are you doing?
What the hell are you doing? You're not eighteen anymore.
Yes I am. Any objections?
I'm asking! Any objections?
I thought you were never coming. Is it open, thanks.
The little prince! Where are the colas?
Stop Avarel.
What did you just call me? You dwarf!
Are you deaf or what?
Just look at this kid. He thinks he can bully me!
Ege, what are they up to?
They're fighting over you!
The revenge of the prince.
Any bodyguard here?
Whoa, slow down man. Let the kid go!
Get out! No fighting in the moonlight.
Take it easy warrior, what're you doing?
- Let me go! - No way.
You come over here. Try taking it easy now.
- Stop blabbering. - Go to your home now.
- Come here you kid! - Whoa, go home!
What are you going to do?
Stop, enough already. Okay, you're a hero, relax now.
Everyone, go home now!
I don't ever want to see you again!
I better not see you again!
Don't you dare come to the beach, I'll strangle you!
Go home, all of you! Get lost!
When you go home kid, put some ice on your eye...
...so no one will notice the bruise.
- Thanks. - Okay now.
Bahar, let's go home.
If you think you are still eighteen, let's have a few more rounds.
Isn't that Ege?
What're you doing out so late?
Ege, what happened to you?
I got into a fist fight.
Let me try to find some ice.
So, tell me all about it. What happened?
There's this kid. He keeps bullying me. And...
And what?
And... and always in front of Bahar.
Stuff like this sometimes happens. You're forced to fight.
Can't really run away. You must fight.
It's not important if you win or lose.
Well, what's done is done.
And I smacked him in the mouth.
Here, take this and put it on your eye.
Don't press it too hard.
By the way what happened to you?
Davut fell in the sea, I saved him.
You sure are a chatterbox tonight.
Let's go.
To the owner of this town's most magnificent piece of land.
Stop fooling around Kemal, I have no patience left.
I'm giddy from all the drinks, sorry.
It's a done deal. Fatih, stop worrying.
As of tomorrow, the factory's yours.
So you were finally able to persuade your father?
I present him with such documents that there is no other way...
...for him but to be persuaded.
This Kemal is into some dirty business again, I'm sure.
Ibrahim, bring me the envelope.
No more, we're leaving now.
There's fifty million lira in here. The last payment for the deposit.
With the others, a single title deed.
Wow man, it's out in the open now.
This will be very painful for everyone.
Sign it.
Ahmet, stop with all this, it gives me a headache.
Fatih, what have you done?
It says 500 million here. What the hell is going on?
I only borrowed 150 million from you, come on!
I'm a businessman. You made a lot of promises to me...
...and I did to others.
You didn't keep any of them.
The loss I made over the months is huge.
Now sign this and finish it in two days.
I don't want to be the bad guy here.
Don't mind me, I'm laughing because of all the drinks I had.
Dad! Dad!
What the hell are you screaming about at this hour you moron?
Go to bed, don't get me mad at this hour of the evening.
We are going to talk.
At this time of the night? Go to bed, go on!
We're going to talk about the factory.
Still the same story? There's no factory for you!
The paperwork is in order. Enough is enough!
We're going to sell that place!
Sell? Who the hell are you?
If there's a decision to be made, I will make it!
Right! Like the one you made for Uncle Asaf?
Does my mother know any of this?
You bastard! Give me those letters!
Dirty drunk! People will laugh at us!
They're already laughing at us! And why should they laugh at me?
It's all because of you.
How dare you speak like that to me?
How will you ever justify all these letters Dad? How?
To Uncle Asaf?
Stop shouting! Stop this charade! Give them to me!
No way! First the factory, then the letters!
You blackmailer! I am telling you to give me the letters right now!
I already have the down payment. It's signed, if not they'll kill me.
Did you ask me when you had it signed?
It was fine when you were wasting the money with that slut, Kismet.
- Hi. - Hi.
- Does it hurt a lot? - No, I already forgot about it.
Why did all of you act like that?
Someone had to teach him a lesson.
But there was no need fot that Ege.
I already spoke with Alp. And he is nearly twice as big as you.
No way, that's not true.
I was worried sick about you.
There's nothing to worry about, I'm fine.
Bahar... This is for you...
Great. Thank you very much.
These were written for you. Long ago.
Is it too late for everything?
If you look into my eyes and tell me to go, I will.
Can you do that?
Can you say 'I loved a man and he died forty years ago.'?
Throw the dice, come on!
No...
The woman's had enough, of course!
- Welcome! - Hello.
I had to change some money and totally forgot, I have to go.
Hello there.
I'm embarrassed to be here. And it looks as if you are too.
Are you aware of the position you have put me in?
And of course it never crossed your mind that I'd be standing in front of you?
I've put up with you because of my son but from now on I won't.
If you think what you do is the right thing, go ahead!
Aysel! Aysel!
Come here you son of a gun! Come and sit here.
There are no more bullets to throw away?
It's your dad's turn to be tricked now?
What is all this screaming in the middle of the night?
You're satisfied?
You thought you could get everything sorted by blackmail?
No dad. You don't understand me, believe me I'm really fucked up.
I signed the deed, I have two days to finish the deal.
Otherwise bad news. They won't let me go.
Did you ask me when you had it signed you dishonest man!
Enough! I'm not a kid any more, take your damn factory...
...your money! Take it all to your grave!
You rude bastard. Why all this screaming?
You can't enter this house any more!
You hear me? Don't you dare take a step inside this house from now on!
You don't want to know what I'll do if you do, God is my witness.
How could I've known everything is a lie?
Everyone thought that we would get married once you came back.
I was left a widow without even getting married.
Yes, I married Azmi. But you never were dead for me Asaf.
My love, what's wrong?
Don't touch me. Get out. I never want to see you again.
What's wrong? What happened suddenly?
You're married. You've got kids. I'm not that kind of a woman.
As you are strolling around so proudly...
...I'm not able to face anyone.
Don't act like this on my last day.
What do the others have to do with it?
Didn't we talk about this millions of times? I am in love with you.
Those were the old days, don't start with you were my first love and so on.
Then you should have persuaded your father and married me.
Your wife and child are the ones hurting, we can't let that happen.
Get out of here Kemal, leave. And never ever come back!
Please go... Please...
Do you have a body for a 7-month-old baby?
Yes we do.
Turn it around.
A bit more... more...
More...
Thanks guys.
- Uncle Asaf. - Stop running.
Come here Ege. There's someone I want you to meet.
- Is that the boat Uncle Asaf? - Yep. Famous Violet
It was at the factory. It was getting really rusty.
And I thought, let me try to fix it, make it as good as before.
I'm older now but at least. I have an apprentice to give me a hand.
When shall we start then?
Let's talk first. We must not rush into it...
...first we must give it some thought.
- What color shall we paint it? - Whichever color you want.
- How long will it take to fix it? - Don't know.
If we really work hard we can be done in two or three weeks.
You're here for two or three weeks then?
It looks like it.
You won't leave after then, will you?
Let's start.
You shouldn't tire yourself out, or you'll fall asleep at the cinema.
What cinema uncle?
Aren't you going to a movie tonight?
- Ask Bahar if she is free? - Should I...
Come on, take these.
You can't find out without asking, she's leaving, qucik!
Bahar!
Do you want to go to a movie tonight?
- There's a new movie playing. - Of course, I would like that.
But there is a party tonight.
That's okay, we can go after the movie.
- See you later. - See you.
Mom, you look beautiful.
Where are you going mom? Going somewhere special with dad?
Don't know. We haven't been anywhere in ages.
Maybe we'll go out tonight.
- Mom, am I handsome? - You sure are.
- Bye mom. - See you later.
- The movie was good, wasn't it? - Yeah, it was great.
Emotional and funny at the same time. Just like me.
You certainly are funny, no doubt.
- Should we get ice-cream? - Yeah. - What flavor do you like?
Strawberry and chocolate.
Two strawberry and chocolate ice-creams.
- Have you seen my boat yet? - I was just about to ask you.
It was my uncle's. It's a bit old but we're going to fix it together.
Do you it can float on water?
Of course it can. It won't be an easy job. We can go on it together.
What color will the boat be?
- Which color would you want? - Don't know. What about blue?
Done deal then. I'll paint it blue.
- Next time the ice-cream is on you. - Okay then.
- Here you go. - Thanks.
Good evening sir, welcome.
I want to have a quiet evening tonight. We'll come by later.
As you wish sir.
We're celebrating Dilara's birthday. Why don't you come as well?
But I have work in the morning.
So what? We'll stay a little while. I won't stay long either.
We'll dance, have fun.
I don't know how to dance.
That's okay, I'll teach you a few steps right here.
First you hold my hand.
My son!
Hello young lady.
Where are you coming from?
We went to a movie.
Fine. Well go ahead, I don't want to disturb you guys.
I had better get going. I shouldn't leave my dad in this state.
Okay, you know better.
Come on, you go to bed now.
You didn't utter a single word...
...despite everything I've done over the years.
You've always supported me but I was neither a good husband...
...nor a good father.
But this is the way I am, I can't change.
I have a life based only on lies.
I cheated on you.
I regretted it each time but I repeatedly kept on doing the same thing.
I can't tell you I won't do it again.
I don't want to look at your face with all this remorse any more.
I don't want my son to feel ashamed of me.
I'll send you money.
Take care of yourself, OK?
And also Ege...
I fucked up everything.
Kismet! Open the door.
Poor, poor boy!
Why are you screaming Kemal in the middle of the night?
Nothing's wrong. You go in.
Come on, just go in!
Kismet!
What are you doing? Get out of here.
You've disgraced me in front of everyone.
Come down Kismet, we have to talk.
I have nothing to say to you. Get out of here.
What the hell are you looking at? Get inside!
I'll scream until the morning if you don't open the door.
People are going to say I'm a whore!
Everything's going to be beautiful.
- Mom! What's going on? - Get up dear. We're leaving.
What's the time? Where are we going?
To your grandma's house. To Izmir.
He's been wanting it for years. Never said a word to me.
And I wasn't a good father enough to buy it.
You're exhausted, rest a little, I'll drive.
- To Izmir. - OK.
Come on Ege.
Please.
I know everything mom. You and dad keep on fighting.
You're always crying.
This is why we're leaving. I also know we'll never come back.
I'm happy here, everyone is here.
My dad, grandma, uncle, friends...
...Bahar.
Things will change. It'll be like the old days.
If you don't want to come back, we'll stay at grandma's.
She also would be very happy.
Don't worry mom.
You're wasting your time.
- Where are they? - They've left.
- Where to? - I don't know.
- And where are you off to? - To have breakfast.
And I wonder where you're going for breakfast...
...looking this handsome?
- Are we there yet? - We are Kemal, we are.
This won't work like this. It's too obvious.
You go and let your granddad know. I'm waiting for you here.
Damn. Where the hell did you go, leaving me all alone here.
You're making a 60-year-old man feel miserable.
Good morning granddad.
Where have you been? Everyone suddenly disappeared.
We'll be staying with my grandma. I'm here to get my bicycle.
When did that happen? Where is your father?
I haven't seen him since last night.
Because I had a few words with him he feels hurt or what?
He won't be back until he's out of money.
And what will I do all alone?
Come with us if you want but if grandma kicks you out, I can't interfere.
Should I?
If you could just have a word with her about me staying there.
Maybe she'll accept.
I don't want to interfere, then I'm stuck in the middle.
Is your dad home?
What's the matter? What's all this rush?
This is not an open house you know. Who are you?
- We're looking for Kemal. - He's not here.
Whatever the problem is, you can tell me.
You can't just barge into a home. What are we? Barbarians?
Are you their leader? What do you want from Kemal?
The title deed. Are you the father?
This son of yours has cheated me out of millions...
...telling me he'll pay sooner or later.
I gave him one final deadline to do so and that was yesterday.
There's nothing more I can do.
What are you guys doing here?
We haven't run away. Why are you here?
Now you are the brave one, I see.
I'm afraid it's a bit late for bravery.
There's nothing wrong, you go inside.
This proves that one should never make promises...
...he won't be able to keep.
Why are you harassing my family? This is not the place.
- Let's go and talk outside. - So be it.
There's so much to talk about.
Take him.
Good day ma'am.
Hello? What's going on Azmi?
What's with all these calls? Okay wait...
Asaf, it's Azmi on the phone.
Yes Azmi.
Are you sure? Who took it?
- I'll be right there. - What is it Asaf?
I'll explain. Do you have Necmi's phone number?
Of course I do.
Come on, it's been an hour.
I'm trying. Hold your horses. I've told Necmi so many times.
Don't piss me off now. Give me 14-15.
- What now? - Nothing really.
Until your guys go to the notary with the deed, you're our guests.
Excuse me, I was wondering if you have a14-15 screw in your shop?
I'm not sure about 15, but if you want 14, I can give you one.
Move this heap out of my way.
Okay, I'll take a look.
What the hell!
Have you ever had a township beating?
You better watch what you are doing, this doesn't look good.
Murat! Ibrahim!
Put that gun down.
Necmi!
What's all this? Are we in the mountains?
Are you guys bandits?
What are you doing with that man?
Move the car, we have to leave.
Not a soul will hear if I decide to get rid of you and the others!
You're the real bandits. I had a deal with him to sell the factory.
Are you stupid or what? Don't push me!
Don't you have any idea that this factory...
...is actually mine. You stupid fool!
Here then. A deed worth 500 million. Can you pay this?
Let your precious Kemal rot in jail.
Maybe that will bring some sense into you.
Enough!
Still threats! All these threats!
How much does Kemal owe you?
500 million.
Don't make me come over there!
Talk properly. How much did you give? We are not bandits here.
- We'll pay whatever we owe. - 150 million.
You'll get the money. Now take your men and get out of here.
You won't come here again, understood?
- OK? - OK.
Kemal!
Thank you. By the way, what a slap it was...
- You were about to piss in your pants. - No way.
Think of the smacking you are about to get back home.
Don't leave us with these men.
Come on brave men!
I wish to express my thanks and respect to you all.
Come on in.
Dad...
Sonny...
Come...
A present from your grand grandpa...
- Here it is Aysel. - Thank you mom...
It's okay.
- Kemal? - Yes mom?
What's wrong? This is not you. You want to be like your dad?
You're putting her through the same pain you put me through all these years.
It's not fair to her or to your kid.
You will not make her suffer any longer.
I swear to God, I'll never forgive you.
Uncle, you were here. I've been looking for you.
Come and sit down. I wanted to have a word with you.
Of course we should speak before you leave.
I am here from now on.
I want to spend the rest of my days in my own town.
This is great news.
What is it you want Asaf?
If you don't want to sell it either, let's try to make the factory work again.
- What else? - What else what?
What else is there in your plans?
Why don't you ask whatever it is that you want to find out?
Why are you getting angry?
You wanted to talk, I'm asking some questions.
All I want is to die where I was born.
I'm for selling the factory.
It's just causing us too many problems.
I can't deal with all this at my age.
Are you going to Izmir this morning?
We've all had experiences like this.
I can't tell you to pretend as if there's nothing wrong...
... but try to be patient - How patient were you mom?
Mom, do you need any help?
Take this to the table please. Tell them dinner is almost ready.
I put up with everything because of him.
But this is the final straw.
A boy of Ege's age shouldn't be living through all this.
He shouldn't see the state that his father is in.
Things will get better my dear, everything's going to change.
- Thank God Kemal's back too. - Thank God.
Come on dear, get yourself together.
I will serve the dinner tonight, give me the plate please.
Stuffed eggplant. My favorite.
I love it. Thank you dear.
I didn't make it. It was my mother.
This is so lovely. I sure missed a real family gathering.
- Azmi, your plate please. - I'm not really hungry.
What do you mean?
Nevin prepared the meal. You must have some.
Whoever cooked it should eat it.
I don't want to eat anyone's portion.
You won't disappoint me tonight.
No hard feelings tonight. We're celebrating.
Celebrating what?
Your uncle has decided to stay. That's what we are celebrating.
- Hooray! - Exactly!
Give me five, partner!
- Azmi? - Come on granddad.
The carefree, happy Asaf my granddad always talked about is back!
Asaf is great at these things.
Speaking kind words, connecting with people.
He loves doing that.
You haven't come by to see my boat yet.
Soon, put things in order first.
Don't make promises to anyone I want to be the first on that boat.
But I already promised someone.
And who might that be?
What's it to you? It must be somebody important.
Of course, stop with the questions.
I will introduce her soon but I'm waiting for a good time.
Look we are all together.
Must there be an occasion for you to come back here?
I've been begging you for years. Isn't this nice?
Your begging has no effect on me. I just wanted to be here, right?
I see that. The delicious food and all.
So our admiral is happy.
Come on dad.
- Ege, go and get the salt. - Okay mom.
I know why you are here. Don't make me start in front of them.
Please don't start.
I don't belong at this table.
Once I go, the real celebration will begin.
- For God's sake dad, sit down. - Don't interfere.
I thought you wanted it to be like the old days. Didn't you?
Please sit back down.
What an ill-tempered man!
Are you okay Nevin?
Yeah, it's just my nerves.
In front of my son, grandson, at my age...
Don't worry, it's typical Azmi.
Asaf...
Stay here tonight.
Let's sit like this until the morning.
We used to watch the stars together.
Let's do that again tonight.
What is it?
Do you have to annoy everyone? It was a family gathering.
Neither mom nor Aysel were happy.
We got rid of Ege as well...
Don't we deserve happiness for at least two minutes, dad?
Stop! Enough with the stories! Where's your mom? Outside?
She obviously left.
In the middle of the night. Why don't you drop her home?
- My uncle is. - You mean Asaf?
I'm about to kill someone!
- Good morning. - Good morning.
God damn it! You made fools out of us!
Good morning, how's everything?
Good morning. I hope you're not too tired.
I couldn't come yesterday.
It's okay, I managed on my own no worries.
- What was that girl's name? - You mean Bahar?
Yeah. She came around and asked about you yesterday.
What did she say?
She asked why you didn't come. She was worried about you.
What else did she say?
She told me she is madly in love with you and asked whether...
...you were in love with her too.
Come on!
What come on? You've fallen for her.
- Look at yourself. - What do you mean?
This is what it means. Get to work, the place is a mess.
You've skipped enough work.
Why are you playing? Get up, bring me a drink!
You are in a good mood again!
Something has happened to you. His time had come.
It's God's decision, you know.
Come here Asaf. We must have a talk.
The whole thing turned sour. You won't see Nevin anymore!
- How dare you? - What do you mean?
I can't be the laughing stock of everyone.
- You will not see each other. - You can't decide for me.
Listen, I haven't said anything since my return.
The lies you told, the dirty tricks, everyone knows.
From now on, you don't talk. There's nothing for you to say.
It's not the end of the story.
Concentrate on the game.
What's up partner?
I heard you really worked hard in my absence.
All I can do is use the sandpaper. But it looks good, right?
Of course. It looks great.
How was the movie yesterday?
All I know is Bahar was beautiful!
He's all I got. And you managed to brainwash my grandson too!
For rent.
Grandma!
You see, you didn't bring me over but here I am!
- Three lemonades! - Coming right up!
- How is everything? - Welcome.
Nice to be here.
I was going to surprise you. What do you think?
- Beautiful! - It'll be more beautiful.
I'll paint it blue and get an engine.
- Are we going swimming? - I'll be right there.
Is she Bahar?
She sure is beautiful. Go on, don't make her wait.
- Go ahead. - First you.
What's going on dad? You're celebrating something?
My own funeral. Have a drink! And then you can start dancing!
My God!
What's the matter with him?
I'm not sure, he thinks everyone's plotting to kill him.
He's become so weird. Keeps getting worse each day.
This is for you.
It's beautiful.
- You like blue. - I sure do.
There's a beach party tonight. Why don't you come as well?
I'm around anyhow. I have to finish the work on the boat.
- Maybe in a few days? - That's difficult. Why?
Nothing.
Bahar.
I have to tell you something.
Look.
They are beautiful.
- Hi dad. - My son.
- Mom. - Hello.
- Are you okay granddad? - Not bad.
Mom, you know, grandma came over to see the boat.
- Really? - She wants to go...
... for a boat ride as well. - Good for her.
In the name of God! Where is Asaf?
He went over to Grandma's. They're going to cook.
Stop this dad. You've almost finished the bottle since morning.
My friends are having a beach party, can I go tonight too?
- First have a bite to eat. - All right.
Go on then.
I was in Istanbul then.
I was on the basketball team too.
I got some friends on the team.
Why are you sitting alone here? Come and join us.
You seem to be having a good time without me anyhow.
You're really acting strange tonight.
Why do you say that? I'm always like this.
Okay, whatever.
Bahar, can we have a word?
About what?
- You're so beautiful. - Say, what you wanna say.
Stop Ege!
Bahar...
- Are you crying? - No.
I need to tell you something. I was about to say it today.
My dad's been transferred. We're moving to Istanbul.
I decided to get dressed up.
It suits you.
You asked for it.
He couldn't even follow the movie. His heart must be quivering!
She is his first love.
- Open this door! - Don't open it!
Are we going to continue living behind locked doors, in secrecy?
What is this scandal?
What are you doing here?
What exactly are you doing here? Go away!
I'm not going anywhere. You owe me an explanation!
It's you who has to give an explanation to us here!
I'm ready to explain everything!
I kept all the letters.
I read each one over and over. I never felt regret!
I made up the story of Asaf's death.
I also lied to my parents when he was captured.
I spent forty years with these lies.
I don't regret any of them. I did it all because I love you!
I love you, I'm still in love with you.
What kind of love is this?
You destroyed everyone's life. You told lies.
You even killed your brother.
How are you different from a murderer?
You're a coward.
You kept on running and now you've come to your senses?
Why didn't you act like a man? Why didn't you fight for Nevin?
There was a child. What should I've done?
Destroy his life as well?
Stop this nonsense!
You want to pick up the pieces from where you've left off!
You even pretend to take on the role of a granddad and a father!
Life is not this easy!
I'm doing exactly what you should have done all these years.
Look around!
Everyone in your family is expecting one thing from you: Love!
You're Doctor Love now! You always said the right words.
You're accusing me because I wasn't able to speak...
...the elaborate words that you spoke?
Enough! You stole forty years from me.
You say you love me, wasn't it you who...
...cheated on me the first opportunity you had?
Be honest for the first time in your life!
You've caused unhappiness for everyone!
Still no regrets?
Leave, for God's sake, go!
I'll be here from now on. You'll get used to my existence.
Absolutely not. I'll kill myself.
Then we'll all live happily after.
Put that down, stop acting foolish. That's not a toy.
Our hero, he's the brave soldier!
Not a toy, huh? And this is not a game either.
You have no right to make me live like this.
Your shadow was always over us. He never loved me.
I've been living with a ghost.
Now it's your turn to live with one!
Don't!
Do you need anything?
We'll be outside dad.
Son!
He's okay, just resting a little.
Now you go off to your grandma, you'll see him later.
- Why did you bring him? - He was so persistent.
- He didn't sleep the whole night. - Come on now, come on.
Let's go.
How did all this happen?
Let's go to my place.
But we've just arrived.
Please go to your grandma's.
I'll come and pick you up later, you'll be back.
He wants to see you.
Let's go.
Forgive me Asaf. Forgive me brother.
Bahar is leaving.
People leave my dear.
What am I to do?
I'm so unhappy. Will I always be unhappy?
It's as if it'll always be like this.
It's going to get better. There are so many things I haven't told you.
The most difficult thing for us to do is...
...to live an unhappy, undesired life.
Like my mom.
Are you very unhappy too?
Anything wrong with grandpa?
Nothing. He's fine.
Are we going home?
No, I've come to say goodbye. I'm going back.
Why? We were going to stay together, finish the boat, weren't we?
Believe me I would if only I could.
I must leave, you'll finish the boat. It's your boat.
Then you'll take Bahar on it once you're done.
She's leaving too, everyone is. I'm going to be all alone here.
You cannot give up.
You will follow your dreams, no matter what.
How will I find her?
- Do you love her? - Very much!
You'll never forget her, right?
I can't.
Then you won't give up. Otherwise, you'll only...
...feel pain with each heartbeat.
Will I hurt really badly then?
Very badly indeed. If you ever give up...
Take care of your grandma.
- Never leave her alone. - Don't worry partner.
Wish I could come with you...
Wish I could say stay...
Write to me please, okay?
It all happened very quickly.
He left as quietly as he came.
I knew I'd never see him again.
I couldn't even say goodbye to Bahar.
I had lost my first love.
Everything that reminded me of her gave me pain.
I didn't leave the house for days.
I had no desire to do anything.
Sender: Bahar Öztürk Sender: Asaf
My granddad had given up on life.
Finally the factory was sold.
My father became very rich.
But my mother was very unhappy.
She couldn't bear it any longer.
One day we moved away as well.
The hardest was to leave my grandma. I was all alone.
Growing up is like that I guess.
I felt things were different...
...we were all going in different directions.
We were never to sit at the same table together.
The courtyard was to remain silent and...
...I never forgot the events of that summer.
I thought of my childhood days always with a smile.
This house and its back garden full of life.
My favorite ice-cream has always been strawberry and chocolate.
I've always enjoyed romantic comedies.
I was never able to completely watch a movie...
...as long as Bahar was next to me.
