Nuri Bilge Ceylan’s widely talked-about film Kuru Otlar Üstüne will be screening at the Austin Film Society in the coming days, with two separate showings on May 9th and May 13th.
In the latest epic-length film from Turkish master Nuri Bilge Ceylan (WINTER SLEEP, THE WILD PEAR TREE), a selfish teacher, posted in remote Anatolia and itching for a transfer to a more desirable locale, is accused of inappropriate behavior by a student, and his feelings of despair deepen.
