Suspiciousness against imaginative enemies
The film is technically a masterpiece. The long periods of silence succeeding natural sounds incorporate the viewer into the scenery and the atmosphere.The key to the comprehension of the movie is the closeted parallel of this archaic in manners Turkish family with the modern state. What prevails is suspiciousness against imaginative external enemies as well as hidden guilt between the members of the inner family. The outcome is quite tragicomic and indicative of the obsessions and artificial dead ends which point at the “foreign” as the source of all our woes.
I also underlined the scene where the little girl with all its innocence states that we are also nomads, so “these” nomads won’t do us any harm. The mature man replies that “they are bad nomads” and so differ from the morally immaculate family.
What is really behind the hill?
I was very fortunate that EYE Film Museum Amsterdam ran this movie during the Turkish Beat festival. Must say that I really really loved this movie. It is the sort of movie keeps you thinking within a couple days after you watch it. And I’m not talking gets you thinking out of not understanding the story but more like wanting to really know what is really “behind the hill”.The story take place in a remote village in East of Turkey where a family with complicated internal relationships constantly struggle with the villagers on the other side of the hill. You never see them but you only see their actions- or the actions that are attributed to them. From the start to the end, it’s all wrapped with tensions of the unknown and how the villagers find ways to deal with them.
I do want to write so much more but I hate the spoiler reviews so I will leave it at this. For all I know, I still am not sure what was behind the hill.
