Winter Sleep
Aydin, a former actor, runs a small hotel in central Anatolia with his young wife Nihal with whom he has a stormy relationship and his sister Necla who is suffering from her recent divorce. In winter as the snow begins to fall, the hotel turns into a shelter but also an inescapable place that fuels their animosities& Nuri Bilge Ceylan won the grand prize at Cannes for this mesmerising 3-and-a-bit hour long masterpiece on human relationships, fragility and an innocence long lost.
