Ahmet meets the German PTSD war photographer Daniel, who is just beginning to discover Middle-East culture...This groundbreaking award-winning film is based on a true event: the tragic death of Ahmet Yildiz, who in 2008 was murdered at the age of twenty-six by his father for being gay. Visually refined and accompanied by a superb score, Caner Alper's debut is not a straight-forward human-rights impeachment; instead, it offers a portrait of self-ironic outsiders dealing with family, machismo and army duty, which has to be avoided – even at the cost of contributing to the gigantic porn collection of the committee, which requires "documentation" of the militarily exempt's sexual life.
