"Ahmet, don't do this." "I can't take it anymore." "I'm going to ask you something and I want you to answer me truthfully." "is there somebody else?" "I asked you something Please answer me" "I promise not to cause any problem, please tell me what's happened." "What is it you want me to tell you?" "is there somebody else?" "Somebody else?" "Yes, there ls" "Since when?" "For the past two months." "Who is it?" "Nobody you know." "Anyway, still tell me who it is." "Nobody you know." "But who?" "A doctor at the university." "Which university?" "Serap!" "How did you meet her?" "I asked you something." "So tell me!" "In a cafe in Niþantaþý." "How did you meet her!" "?" "I was waiting for a friend." "She was at the next table, crying." "I asked her why she was crying." "You asked why she was crying?" "You son of a bitch" "You can't stand to see another woman crying but I could die and you wouldn't care a bit." "Why was she crying?" "Why was she crying!" "Serap." "That's enough!" "What do you mean wthat's enough?" "Don't I have the right to know that?" "Are you in love with her?" "I asked you if you're in love with her!" "Yes, I aa m" "I'm leaving..." "What did I do to you...?" "Good morning Ahmet?" "Good morning Elif, come in." "I guess I woke you up." "No, no." "Come on in." "Can I make some tea?" "Yeah, hon, that'd be good." "Okay, I also brought some warm roll." "OK." "You didn't sleep again last night, did you?" "Not realy" "Thanks." "Aren't you going to eat that?" "No, thanks, you go ahead." "It's really fresh..." "I'm not hungry." "Hows it going?" "It's going good." "Everything's ready the location, camera." "Once we decide on the actors we can start shooting." "Should we watch the trial shots?" "Let's have a look" "I think they look fine, but you should see them too." "How are you with books?" "Not bad." "Read a lot?" "Not very much." "Did you read Crime and Punishment?" "No, but I'll read it if you want." "Why do you want to be an actor?" "I never really wanted to be an actor." "It's more of a hobby." "How do you feel about acting in a film?" "I'd like to try something like that." "Have you read Crime and Punishment?" "Yes, I have." "What did you think of it?" "It was good." "What do you think of Raskolnikov?" "I think he's kind of stupid." "I do a radio show." "I did some TV and acted in a documentary." "I write some short stories, stuff like that." "So now, do you want to be an actor?" "So what did you think?" "Do you think one of these might work as Roskolnikof?" "Elif, do you think that maybe we shouldn't do this film?" "Why not?" "It seems that everything's going to go wrong." "Why should it go wrong?" "I don't know." "I just have this feeling..." "You felt the same way last time, but everything worked out fine." "If the screenplay's got some problems we can wait." "I could help you with it..." "No, the script's not the problem." "What is it then?" "It's a feeling I've got." "When I even think about shooting I get sick all over." "It's only a matter of weeks..." "Once we start, it'll be finished in no time." "Tell me about it." "Let's saayy we doo lnlsh the lim What then?" "I can't tell you just how sorry I get every time I do this." "Ahmet, is it matter of money. ls that it?" "No, it's not that." "I wish it could be that easy." "What is it then?" "I just feel so weak, Elif." "I don't even have the strength to leave the house." "Are you sick or something?" "No, it's nothing like that." "So?" "There's no so." "It's just the way it is." "But there's no other way" "You're right." "There isn't" "OK, let's say we give up on it." "What are you going to do then?" "I don't know." "Maybe I'll find an easier way too humiliate myself" "Don't talk like that!" "Your films have garnered great respect." "What respect?" "It's all bullshit." "Anyway, forget about it." "How are you doing?" "Like I said We've got everything ready JJust a couple of actors" "Forget about the actors." "I'm asking how you are." "I'm good...school and everything is keeping me pretty busy." "Hows Kerem?" "He's good too, working on his thesis." "Really?" "What thesis?" "His masters." "He's doing it on Nietzsche and Heidegger." "Good for Kerem." "It's a good subject." "Ahmet, can I ask you a question?" "Sure." "is there another reason for all this?" "What kind of reason?" "I don't know." "It's like you've been hurt." "Something that goes beyond Nietzsche..." "Yes." "You're probably right." "Could I ask what it is?" "Sure you can ask." "Serap and I have split up." "You've split up?" "Yes, we have" "But why?" "You two were so in love!" "That's what I thought." "I found out she has somebody else." "Of course, I beat her up and then she left home." "The minute I saw you, I knew something had happened." "Elif, I haven't slept for two days." "And you've got work to do." "You go now." "We'll talk about this film stuff later." "I'll pick up my stuff." "O.K. hon..." "Get some rest for a couple of days." "Everything'll look different once you pull yourself together." "O.K." "You want to come over tonight?" "No, I should get some sleep." "It's Kerem's birthday." "A couple of friends are coming." "Some are real fans of yours." "No, it would be nice, but I really need some sleep." "If you change your mind give me a call, OK?" "All right." "I will." "OK. then." "Take care of yourself." "I will." "Thanks." "And say hi to Kerem." "Will do." "Ahmet Bey, selam aleyikum." "Aleyikum selam." "Did you see a stranger around here last night?" "No, I didn't." "What's happened?" "Somebody broke down my door and robbed me blind." "Ohh, I'm really sorry to hear that." "I called the police and they're looking into it." "No Uncle Feyyaz, sorry, I didn't see anything." "I'm really sorry that I disturbed you." "No, no, that's O.K." "Have a good day." "You too." "Good evening." "A robber came into my house." "I want to report it." "No." "He ran away when he saw me." "All right." "Good night." "Do you want to report a robbery?" "Yes." "Have a seat, I'm just coming back." "O.K." "Take a look at these photographs." "Tell me if you recognize anybody." "Right, thanks." "Ex cuse me." "Did I wake you up?" "No, no, it's O.K." "Did something happen?" "Come on, tell me." "Elif's been gone for the past three days." "She left without saying a word and still hasn't called." "I thought she went to her mother's in Izmir but she's not there." "Have you asked her friends?" "Yes." "They don't know anything either." "I thought maybe you know something." "Come on in..." "I'm really sorry for bothering you." "No, it's O.K. Come on in." "Have a seat. I'll be right back." "I'm just going to the grocery store." "Do you want anything?" "No." "Thanks." "Tea or coffee?" "It doesn't matter." "Where do you suppose she could have gone?" "I don't know." "I'm afraid something's happened to her." "What could happen?" "I don't know." "Anything." "What happened with your thesis?" "I gave up on it." "Why?" "My advisor didn't like it I'm looking or another subject" "So did you find anything else?" "I'm still thinking about it, but I'll probably do something on Adorno." "How are you?" "I'm O.K., the same as always." "Elif told me some stuff." "I was sorry to hear about it." "You and Serap have separated" "Yeaah lt happened." "Nothing I can do about it." "Right." "And what's happened with the film?" "Are you giving it up?" "Yes." "Why?" "I don't know." "Maybe this stu is just getting too hard for me" "But the real problem is with the script lt really is a difficult screenplay." "You read it?" "Elif insisted." "Though I don't understand much of that stuff." "What did you think though?" "Don't hold back." "I decided not to do it anyway." "Like I said, I don't know much about this kind of stuff, ...but actually the script didn't seem very believable." "It was a difficult subject." "You're right." "The topic didn't seem believable to me either" "Then why did you choose it?" "I know you like Dostoyevsky, but." "This doesn't really have anything to do with Dostoyevsky." "I don't know why, but these subjects appeal to me for some reason." "Subjects like crime and evil?" "Yeah, things like that." "But Crime and Punishment is a book about faith and redemption" "People have various interpretations" "While we're on the subject, there's something I've been curious about." "Do you mind if I ask?" "Go ahead." "Why are you so interested in these kinds of subjects?" "What kind of subjects?" "Things like destruction, evil..." "Your other films are like that too, always about negation, guilt" "From the outside you don't look like that kind of person." "Really?" "And what kind of person do I look like?" "Well, I don't know really..." "Come on." "I'm curious." "First off, you look like you take everything very seriously." "From what I know you're a really hard worker, modest, principled." "In fact, you are so idealistic that you call cinema a religious endeavor." "Do I really seem like that?" "You must be aware of that" "People never know how they apear lf that's so, it must be because I'm arrogant and stuck up." "Aren't those characteristics too positive for someone who is arrogant?" "Not really." "I've known people who ruined their entire lives being a bit of a show off." "I get the feeling that you are trying to provoke me but believe me  I'm only telling you this as someone who really respects you." "Thanks." "I would be lying if I said your words didn't please me but still you're exaggerating too much for  I know full well just who I am and what I'm good for." "No, no, I am only saying that you are appreciated and that you deserve this appreciation." "That's all." "A lot of people I know feel the same way." "Then that must be it." "Take Elif for instance..." "You've been working together for a long time,  but she thinks you're a kind of god." "Now you really are exaggerating." "I'm not exaggerating." "I'm telling you what I experience." "Then I want to tell you something very direct." "Sure." "Of course." "I don't know what goes on between Elif and you,  but I have absolutely nothing to do with your relationship." "And I didn't even realize that Elif thinks of me like that." "No." "Don't get me wrong." "I know nothing is happening." "If I thought this was about you, I wouldn't have the courage to come." "Then why did you come?" "Just to talk." "Like I said, this has nothing to do with you." "I just wanted to talk to you about this stuff." "What stuff?" "Stuff to do with this cinema business." "I don't understand." "Elif's really changed a lot since she's gotten involved in the film stuff." "I don't even know her anymore." "Sorry, but I'm not following you." "Let me explain then I've known this girl for four years." "We've been together ever since she came to Istanbul." "You probably know that she grew up in the country." "She went to a boarding school for high school." "At first glance, you could see what kind of person she was." "Very open." "Honest." "A person with principles and values." "Bu t laast year she started too gget wierd EEspecclaallyy aa ter she met you" "When I say you, I'm actually talking about this film stuff." "She turned into a person that's always threatening,  looking down on everything, stuck up, selfish like nothing is good enough for her anymore." "Always tripping like she is better than the rest of us." "That she is so good just to put up with me." "Even though she's not like that, she put on heavy, melancholic airs." "Actually that is what's been so impossible to put up with." "Anyway, let's forget about all that stuff." "I just can't describe just how demeaning she's become." "Makes you want to punch her in the noose" "So I just couldn't put up with it anymore." "What do you mean?" "Yoou meaa n you hit her?" "Did you talk to Elif about all this stuff?" "Sure." "Lots of time." "But that's what completely destroys a persoon's feeling of justice I swear she's very smart, but she's a real idiot when it comes to this." "I can't explain anything to her." "And it's really hard to take the fact of being jealous." "So forget about it Let her live and learn" "But it's me who has to live with threat and ear" "Kerem These are very heavy emotions" "They are much harder to put up with than they look." "And you are demanding the last thing that any person can possibly give." "I'm not asking anybody for anything." "I just want her to be a little fair." "But that is the hardest thing." "Then why are we living?" "Can't we expect fairness from the person we love?" "The best thing is not to expect anything from anybody." "The feeling of fairness gets weak in hands of those asserting their rights." "Are you telling me to forget about Elif?" "I would never go that far." "Right now wewre not talking about Elif, wewre talking about what you think." "Shall I tell you something even more frank?" "Go ahead..." "Yoou 're the reaasoon bbehlnd aall oo this" "Elif got this way after she met you." "Could be, but... how could I succeed as a stranger at doing something you couldn't do?" "Get off it!" "You're not being honest." "You should know better that this is something a mysterious stranger can achieve much better than a lover." "Soo what doo you waa nt me too doo?" "Pu t aa n end too this whoole lim lle" "As far as Elif is concerned I mean." "What do you mean?" "Stop working with her." "There are a lot of people around who would do a much better job for you." "Can I ask you something as well?" "Ask whatever you want." "I'm asking you not because I am mad, I just have been affected by all this." "You can get mad" "How do you ask such a thing?" "Don't you have any pride at all?" "This isn't a matter of pride." "I've been taking care of her for the past four years." "She hasn't even studied for her exams all because of that film that you don't even bother to shoot and I've had to get her ready for them." "And I have a responsibility to her family." "You may not believe in such things but ...there are families who'd die just so their kids can study." "O.K. I understand." "If that's the problem, I've given up on the film anyway." "What else could be the problem?" "Listen Kerem, I can be mean as well, but you can't put me down like this lf you are trying to threaten me or whatever, just come right out and say it." "No, please, don't get me wrong." "I'm not trying to threaten you." "I just feel real bad right now, that's all." "Yeaah I ccaa n u nderstaa nd that" "You want another tea?" "No." "Thanks." "I should leave." "I'm sorry for bothering you." "Bu t l'vve ggoot aa aavvoor too aaskk" "Su re" "Don't tell Elif I came here." "No, I won't." "The Police Department wants you to report there immediately." "Recognize anybody?" "No." "You are sure?" "I'm sure." "But you had identified one person in the photograph I thought it was the second from the left, but it's not him." "What are you saying?" "Actually what are you saying... what's all this stuff about a film?" "You putting me on or something?" "Why should I put you on, kid?" "If you don't want it, just say no." "You want another tea?" "Hey brother, two more teas." "What's your name?" "Ferit" "Mine's Ahmet" "Where are you from?" "From around here." "What part of town?" "What's it to you?" "What are you getting so mad about?" "I'm just asking." "You sure you're not from MÝT?" "What are you talking about MÝT?" "I told you I'm a film director." "What kind of director are you?" "!" "What's a director supposed to be like?" "Like a real director of course" "And do you know any real directors?" "Sure..." "Sinan Çetin..." "He's what I would call a real director." "Not every director has to be like Sinan Çetin." "There are other good directors too." "But if you don't believe me I'm not going too force you" "Just say no and that'll be that." "Thanks." "Here's what I don't understand." "You break into people's houses, but you don't have the courage to go in front of a camera." "What are you saying brother!" "Let alone a camera, I'd be willing to go on a stage in front of a bunch of people and act" "Well do it then!" "So if you're a director, what was that in your hand that night?" "A gun." "You run around with a gun and expect me to swallow that you're a director." "What's that got to do with it kid?" "Everybody in this country has got a gun." "Anyway...so what do we do next?" "Actually you're right." "There's no use dragging this thing out." "Give me a telephone number and I'll call you in a couple of days." "In the meantime you can think about it and make up your mind." "I haven't got a telephone." "Get off it!" "What's that on your waist?" "I borrowed it from a friend when I was going to the police station." "Then I'll leave a message with a friend." "All right then." "Look, this is my number." "Think about what I've said and then if you want to do it give me a call." "You're still not convinced but don't make up your mind so fast" "Anyway, I'm glad to have met you." "Goodbye." "Come on over here!" "You should call Kerem." "The kidws worried sick." "Aren't you going to call?" "No." "When you came I realized what I did." "I'm really sorry." "Elif, dinner's ready." "Elif..." "Yes?" "Am I speaking with Mr. Ahmet?" "Whose calling?" "Ex cuse me for bothering you at this hour." "Something very important has come up." "It's imperative that I talk to him personally." "Yes, it's me" "Serapws in really bad shape." "She's in the Hospital, in intensive care." "Who are you?" "I'm a friend of hers." "What's wrong with her?" "She attempted suicide." "Hello?" "So why are you calling me?" "Sorry then, I made a mistake." "What happened?" "Nothing..." "Who was that?" "It wasn't Kerem." "You want some water?" "No, but turn out the light." "I guess you couldn't sleep." "No, it's still too early for me." "What time is it?" "Four." "I was sound asleep." "Yes, you were." "Hey, I left some food for you." "I don't want any." "Where are you going at this hour?" "I'll be back in a bit." "You just make yourself comfortable." "Didn't you go?" "No." "If I'm the reason for something, then I'll go." "Really, I promised my friends I'd come." "It has nothing to do with you." "Sit down." "What are you thinking about?" "Nothing." "Tarçýn where are you girl?" "Have you been all by yourself?" "Come on and eat." "Eat this now." "And I could eat you up too." "What are we going to do with this Tarçýn?" "What happened?" "She hasn't come yet and her kittens are hungry." "There's nothing you can do about Tarçýn." "Whores can never be reformed." "Sometimes you really surprise me." "In fact, you scare me." "Why is that?" "People just don't call their cats whores." "Well, if the name fits...?" "Well, why did you take her in then?" "I didn't take her in." "She forced her way in, the whore." "When I saw she was pregnant I threw her out and then she had the kittens down there." "Serap felt sorry for them." "Hello, Ahmet?" "This is me, Ferit." "I called you about this filming thing." "I wanted to talk to you about it." "Hello?" "Ahmet, hello?" "Dear Rodya, it's almost four months now since your last letter." "I've suffered a lot." "I just keep thinking about you all night." "You are everything to me and your big sister." "You're our hope and our future." "I felt real bad when I heard you dropped out of school because you didn't have any money and couldn't find a job." "Thanks be to Allah, I'll be able to send you some money after this." "I am also dying to tell you about our good news." "It looks like good luck has come our way again." "Yoou r sister's ggettlng married soon" "You know how much your sister cares about you." "Allah has found her destiny." "He is as good as she is." "Mr Abdullah is a real gentleman He works in the governor's officce" "He's got a really good job." "He's forty five years old but he is nice looking." "I know you're going to like him as much as we do." "There's something else I almost forgot to tell you." "We are planning to come visit you very soon." "We'll be able to talk about all this then." "Myy dear RRRoodyyaa, I embbraacce you with aall myy heart" "All I want is for you to be happy." "Do you still pray every night like you used to?" "Don't ever forget the power of our creator." "He is always with us." "Goodbbye oor noow We send aall oou r kkises Yoou r m oother aa nd you r sister" "Elif would you just pick this up?" "Would you like some tea?" "No." "Thanks." "I don't want any either." "is it as hard as you thought?" "Well I don't know. lf you like it... I like it." "Bu t you woou ld doo aa loot bbetter with Slna n ÇÇetln, right?" "O.K. You don't have to keep it up." "Elif?" "Yes?" "You know that photograph of a girl you showed me?" "With dark eyes Thin" "Sanem?" "Can we give her a call and see how she looks with Ferit?" "OK." "Ahmet, can I ask you something?" "Sure." "Go ahead." "Who is Roskolnikof?" "You know the film is based on the novel?" "Yeah?" "He's the main character." "Soo that's what we're caling him right now it wil be changed later lf you play the role, we can call him Ferit maybe." "That would work." "It would?" "Sure." "Elif!" "Yes?" "Could you give me a tea?" "But you didn't want one?" "Yeah, but I want one now." "So what?" "All right." "No thanks." "O.K." "Have one." "Give him one too." "I've been thinking about something" "Like what?" "Could we do that scene one more time?" "Why?" "I think I've just understood what it is he's trying to say." "What's he trying to say?" "Well, in times like this, ..." "well mothers like this,  they don't show it so their kids don't get upset..." "like that..." "So here, she's selling her daughter to that guy..." "Yes?" "So, the sister is kind of sacrificing herself for her family." "Yes?" "But in her letter she tells her son, "you see your sister's just fine ...She's going to marry a rich man, so wewre happy...w stuff like that." "She doesn't want his son to feel bad, to feel sorry for his sister." "I don't think the boy should be sad or crying here." "What should he be doing?" "He should be sad, crying." "No, he shouldn't be crying at all." "Just the opposite." "He should be mad, and really angry." "You are right." "Will you do it that way this time?" "Yeah." "When somebody's all alone,  it doesn't even matter if he goes berserk." "Who can he even show it to!" "Yeah that's right." "You know next week that girl is going to come here." "Sanem or something..." "Yeah?" "When she comes, you guys can do it together." "O.K.?" "Sure, you're the boss." "All right." "Elif?" "Yes?" "Forget about the tea." "But I poured them?" "Forget about it." "You ready to leave?" "Yes." "All right then." "Soo, should I cal Sanem?" "Yeah." "Call her" "When do you want her to come?" "Whenever she wants." "All right. I'll tell Ferit so they are here at the same time." "All right O.K. That's it." "Good bye." "See you." "Where are you off to?" "The neighborhood." "Come on. I'll drop you off." "That's O.K. I'll take a bus." "Ah, come on." "Ahmet, what's that about?" "Nothing." "Why did you look at that guy like that?" "Nothing... just looked." "I need to get off over there." "All right." "Could we drink tea together." "I could show you off to my buddies." "Another time." "All right." "Sorry for bothering you." "No." "It was no bother." "O.K." "You know I'll call Elif if something happens." "O.K.?" "All right." "So take care then." "Goodbye." "What are you doing here?" "Just sitting." "Have you eaten?" "I don't feel hungry." "You never eat anything" "I'm going to scramble up some eggs." "Come if you're hungry." "O.K.?" "Have you heard anything from Serap?" "Why do you ask?" "No reason." "Just popped into my mind." "She called a few days ago." "She married that man and moved to Izmir." "Make you feel bad?" "Yeaah, of course She was an old love of mine" "Anyway, I always feel bad when women are happy with somebody else." "Why?" "I don't know." "I've been like that since I was little." "We were planning on moving to Ýzmir together." "There's that too." "You know Kerem came today." "I know." "How do you know?" "I saw him when I was driving with Ferit." "is that why you're late?" "No...the work just stretched on." "Aren't you going to ask what happened?" "Why are you doing this?" "How do you mean?" "I don't know." "Llkke you r pride's bbeen hu rt" "Don't be afraid." "I'm not your enemy or anything like that." "He wants me to go back to him." "And I've been thinking of going back with him." "I know." "How do you know?" "I don't know." "Splitting up is not the easiest thing." "You 're saying that, that's about all a woman can do in such a case?" "You think you know everything but you don't know shit." "It just makes it easier for you to assume that I'm one of those silly women of yours." "Now where is this stuff all coming from, out of the blue?" "What have you been going through for days?" "Who have you touched?" "And who have you made love to?" "I tell you that I met with my old lover and you just say wl know. w" "There's not even a hint of curiosity on your face." "Nobody should be humiliated like this!" "What do you mean whumiliatew?" "Where are you getting all this stuff from?" "What then?" "O.K. I don't expect you to be jealous of me but couldn't you at least ask what's going on?" "When somebodyws eyes are swollen shut from crying,  do you just ask them if they want scrambled eggs?" "You want an award for not doing what you were supposed to do?" "God, you are so cruel!" "What else could I expect from a person who calls his own cat a whore?" "!" "O.K. I'm sorry." "Come on... I knew you were no saint or anything, but I did love you." "And could have loved you forever." "But you're looking for trouble, not for love" "And that's what you deserve." "Elif..." "Leaavve me aaloone -lt' OO K" "Leaavve me aaloonel Aloonel" "Come on!" "I only said that because I was jealous." "No!" "That's why I said that." "No." "I don't believe anything you say." "I love you." "Don't lie to me... I love you." "Just stop this!" "It's O.K. hon." "It's O.K." "Hello!" "Hello, it's me..." "Yes?" "Ferit didn't call me." "He doesn't have a phone."
