"You've had a lot of success internationally." "But you also shoot magazine covers, you do more commercial stuff." " Which is you?" "." " Both, actually." "If I'm able to connect with my subject then any kind of work is rewarding." "Do you speak French?" "." "Yes." "I haven't for a long time, but I can try." "But no, I don't need an actress who speaks perfect French." "I need someone who speaks French with a Turkish accent." "Otherwise I would find a French actress." "That's why I'm here." "OK." "There are many photographers taking all kinds of different photos." "But your work stands out on its own." "What's your secret?" "." "What makes you different?" "."

"." "Don't misunderstand, we're open-minded..." "Mum, can I have your glass please?" "." "Don't drink too much, son." "You're driving." "Don't worry about me." "I have the most gorgeous driver." "Are all actors' lives chaotic?" "." "No." "But they're up and down to be honest." " Well, it's not good for family life." " Shall we order?" "." "Shall we order our fish, mum?" "." " Want to look at the menu, dad?" "." " But luckily you seem to be sensible." "Mum, we weren't going to discuss this." "Son, you won't let me say a word!" "OK, I'll shut up." "Let's drink to the new store in Moscow." "You made the right decision, dear." " About what?" "." " Why is no one looking after us?" "." " About acting." " Excuse me!" "Sorry." " Can we have the menu please?" "." " Well, you're right to give up acting." "Thank you." "Dad, what are you having?" "." "If it isn't farmed, I'll have the sea bass." " Mum, you?" "."

"They think I am going to give up acting." "How do I know?" "." "Sure, it's a subject to be discussed with Burak." "She said "We were rather put off to hear you're an actress to be honest." "It's no profession for a woman who's starting a family to be honest." "We have our own views to be honest." "Well done for giving up to be honest."" "As you can see, Zeynep, I'm in deep shit to be honest." "Umm, I'll call you back later, OK?" "." " Should I send flowers or what?" "." " What's done is done." " Why did you lie to them?" "." " Move over to the right, Deniz." "We have to take a turn ahead." " Why did you say I'll give up acting?" "." " Well, what was I supposed to do?" "." "They've been nagging me for years." "Why do you think they haven't met you till now?" "." "Burak decided on my behalf and went and persuaded his parents." "So these things happen, right, Burak?" "."

" You're doing it again." " What?" "." "Whenever an opportunity comes up you try to get in the way." "What are you talking about?" "." "Give me a break, for God's sake!" "No, the pay's bad." "No, it's out of town." "No, it's this." "So it's my fault you're a failure, huh?" "." "I've prevent you from getting an Oscar." " You think I'm a failure?" "." " Just take a look at yourself, Deniz." "Just take a look at yourself, Deniz." "If it's not the chance of your life, it's a French film." "Wake up, Deniz!" "What are you doing, Deniz?" "." "Where are you going?" "." "Deniz, come here!" "What is the problem for God"s sake?" "." "Now I'll go, "One, two, three!" and a bird will fly out of here." "But you have to smile." "Here we go." "One, two, three!" " Excuse me, whose exhibition is this?" "." " I think he's over there." "Welcome to you all." "These photographs here were taken by a studio artist, a professional."

"It means seeing 300 faces a month, or 3650 a year." "Or 36,500 every 10 years." "After a while, you stop feeling alone at all." "Because as time goes on everyone becomes a familiar face." "When we lost him around a year ago I felt that staging an exhibition like this would be a way of thanking him on behalf of myself and of everyone in the photographs." "Thanks to you all for coming." "Deniz." "Look, don't let us part like this." "I'm flying to Russia in the morning." " Don't send me off like this, please." " Have a good trip." "Look, OK, I got a bit annoyed." "I'm sorry." "OK?" "." "Burak, if you think like your parents, we should talk." "If I did, I wouldn't be with you in the first place." "But when you..." "When you start talking about "the chance of your life" well, I get upset." "Understand me a little." "Aren't we the chance of our lives for one another?" "." " Let's talk later." " OK." "OK." "Give me a kiss then." "This only happens because I love you so much." "You know that, don't you?" "." "Really?" "." "Really." "Have a good trip." " Zeynep!" " I'm in here." "God damn, Zeynep!" "Didn't I tell you I couldn't walk in these heels?" "." " See?" "." "Broken!" " Good!" "Serves you right." " How come you never called back?" "." " You won't believe what happened." "I spoke to you, looked in the mirror and the woman was right behind me." " You're kidding!" "And?" "." " She heard everything." "I blew it!" " Good!" "She heard for herself." " Forget that." "I'm going to show you something." "Take a good look, OK?" "." "Hey, is this you?" "." "I think so." "Where did you get it?" "." "Ozgur, don't be angry, but if you can come back sometime.." "...before that shop's rented." "I.." "Huh?" "." " I will, I will." "Look, I'm busy the next few weeks but I'll come after that." "Promise, OK?" "." "All right, all right." " Son!" " Mum." "You've made me so happy, Ozgur." "But your dad too." "Your dad too." "You know what?" "." "If he can really see us out there..." " OK, mum." "OK, sweetheart." "OK." " He must be so proud of you." "He must be so proud." "OK, c'mon now." "Don't be late." "Call me when you arrive, OK?" "." " I will, but when I get home." " OK, when you get home." "I can't work the mobile thing." "Mum, I want to ask you something." "Remember a photo of me when I was around eight taken at a place called Foto Turgut?" "." "I'm in a flowery dress, my hair's shoulder-length." " You mean your uncle Turgut?" "." " OK." "Never mind, mum." " Listen, I'm hanging up, OK?" "." " OK, honey." " Good night." " Good night." "Why did I bother asking?" "." "Hey, everyone just loved the exhibition." "Wait till the magazine cover's out and people will go really wild." " Look, I don't plan to stick around." " OK." "What time are we meeting tomorrow?" "." " Why?" "." " What do you mean "why"?" "." "To shoot the cover, right?" "." "You're getting dementia at your age?" "." " What's wrong?" "." " Can we get out of here?" "." " Ozgur, what's wrong?" "."

" I'm fine, I'm fine." " Grab hold of me if you like." " No, it's OK." "I'm fine going slow." " What happened all of a sudden?" "." " I just felt a bit dizzy." "OK, you lie down and rest right now." "I'll be here anyway." " Don't be crazy." "Go back to your place." " No, I'm staying." " There's no need." "I'm fine, I tell you." " Are you sure?" "." "Positive, really." " OK." " There's a load to do tomorrow anyway." " OK." "If anything happens, call me." " OK." " Whatever the time." "Good night then." " Thanks." "Good night."

" If you can catch me." "Come here and say that!" "Two scoops." "Not too much, please!" "That's quite enough." "Ozgur!" "That bike was supposed to be your birthday present!" " Your dad couldn't wait, could he?" "." " Can I ride around a bit more?" "." "OK." "Take your dad his lunch then, And grab the yoghurt on your way in." "Are you here?" "." "Wait, just a second." "Hey, what are you doing?" "." "Didn't I say no raw dough, huh?" "." " Here." "Be careful." " OK, see you." "Goodbye." "Ah, just look at you!" "Didn't we tell you to keep away?" "." "Hey, what's going on?" "." " If only we had more time." " Keep at it till you're happy." " I'll handle the other side." " Thanks." "Eren, any chance of putting off the other side for half an hour?" "." " OK, no problem." " You're wonderful." "Thanks." "Perfect." " Excuse me a moment!" " Yes?" "." "Do you think I could speak to the exhibitor?" "." "Dad, your lunch..." "Ah!" "Do you know who this girl is?" "." " Why do you ask?" "." " I think it's me." "Well, it's a lot like me as a girl, except I have no memory of the photo."

"In front of your childhood photo for instance." "And suppose we use them later for a magazine cover?" "." "As publicity for the exhibition." " I don't really know." " Thank you big time!" "You saved my life." " Hello?" "." " What should I do?" "." "Just stand in front of your photo." "Like this?" "." "Weird, isn't it?" "." "I have zero memory of a photo like this." "Maybe you never came to pick it up." "That's why you don't remember." "Shall I tell you something else you don't remember?" "." " Yes?" "." " While you were having this taken I was there too." "Do we know each other?" "." "I'm really sorry." "If I could find the thing." "Hello, Zeynep?" "." "I'm on my way." "I have to rush." "My memory's terrible." "Can you tell me straight out?" "."

"Tomorrow is best." " OK, thanks." "Goodbye." " Goodbye." " What's it?" "." " Can you cancel this week's schedule?" "." " Why?" "." " I'll explain later." "Forget it." " What am I supposed to tell people?" "." " Make up some excuses." "I'm out of here." "I'm not taking those pills!" "Dad, what does 'shooting a film' mean?" "." " Shooting a film?" "." " Aha." "Now look." "The button's here." "But taking a photograph doesn't mean just pressing the button." "If you know how to look from the right angle you'll find beauty in everything." "And if you capture that beauty, then you've taken a good photograph." "Off you go then." "There you go!" "Now to somewhere nicer." "Ozgur Turgut." "Oh my God!" "The guy's gorgeous!" "Don't laugh!" "Ankara-born photographer." "Awards." "Blah, blah, blah..." "Look, sure he's not kidding you?" "." "He saw you had no memory." ""How did you get into photography?" "'" ""My dad was actually a photographer so I've been close to it all my life." "But I'd say my real interest began after a bike accident I had as a boy."" "What?" "." "What did you say?" "." " He had a bike accident as a boy." " That's him?" "." "Why didn't I twig?" "." " Twig what?" "." "Who?" "." " I don't believe it!" "This way, precious." "Let's sit on that bench there." "Good girl!" " Here, a secret notebook for you." " Like my secret box?" "." "More secret than that." "You must write in the notebook everything you feel in your heart." "Minds forget, hearts never do." "Can I write about the boy with the red bike?" "." "You little rascal!" "Well, they say great romances start with a fight." "Yours started with an accident, didn't it?" "." " Grandpa, how does love happen?" "." " No one honestly knows, Deniz." "But there are certain signs of course." "Your heart races, for example." "You always, always want to see and to be with that person." "They mean the world to you." "You care about nothing else." " Were you in love with granny?" "." " I'm still in love with her." "There's no knowing if it's fate, destiny or coincidence but the heart goes and chooses one person." "When I first saw your mother I said to myself, "I'm going to marry that woman."" "Sometimes you know at first sight that person is your destiny." "Sometimes you search for a lifetime and never find the one." "Wow." "Girls, we leave for Ankara tomorrow at 9.30 a.m. from Taksim." " No one's to forget anything." " OK." " That was directed at me." " Of course it was!" "I'm off to the guy's studio to pick up that photo." " Want to come too?" "." " No." "Why would I?" "." "Ooph!" "Fine then." "You're always such a spoilsport." " Hello." " Come in." " This place is so beautiful." " Thanks." " Is this where you work?" "." " Yes." "Well, live actually."

"Yes." ""l finally met the boy with the red bike." "I jumped in front of the bike just like they do in the movies." "It really hurt, but that's OK."" "How do you mean?" "." "You jumped out on purpose?" "." "Seems so." "I've been plagued by guilt for years and you jumped out on purpose, huh?" "." "I'm really sorry." " Tea?" "." " Sure." "How come you have no childhood photos?" "." "They got lost." "Well, when we moved some of the boxes got lost." "All the photos, albums and stuff were in those boxes." "When you have no childhood photos, you even forget what you looked like." "That's why it was so weird seeing that photo yesterday." "You're really lucky." "I bet you have hundreds of photos." " Thousands." " Wow!" "What do you do?" "." "I'm an actress." "Right." "I should have guessed." "I'm not as good as I was as a kid, but well, I try." " Where do you act?" "." " We have a theatre group." "I sometimes go to auditions." "Films, TV series and stuff." "Actually there's a chance I'll act in a film any time now." "But we'll see." "That's great." "What kind of film?" "." "A romance." "I don't know if I'll get the part, but I really want it." " I reckon you will." " Seriously?" "." " I have a hunch." " God, I hope so." "You seem to pick out really special people." "And this is one of them." " How many years has it been?" "." " Twenty-five." "Twenty-five." "But your eyes haven't changed at all." "They're still the same." "He's looking really deep." "So warm." " Want to meet him?" "." " How do you mean?" "." "Well, the captain is a great cook and he is not far away." "We could go." " What, now?" "." " How about next time we meet?" "." " Sure." " Twenty-five years later." "OK." "Let's do it." "Agh!" "Sorry!" "Hold on tight!" " What?" "." " Hold on tight!" " Hey!" " Captain?" "." " Ozgur!" "Welcome!" " Thanks." "How are you?" "." "Fine, raring to go!" " How about you?" "." " Good." "Great, thanks." " Deniz." " Hello." "How do you do?" "." " Nice to meet you." " You too." "Thanks." "Sit down, sit down." "Just a minute." "It's the first time you've come with a girl." "And you've struck gold." "Don't let her go, OK?" "." "We're childhood friends, captain." "From ages ago." "Even better." "Sit down." " What are you drinking?" "." " What will you have?" "." "Raki?" "." " OK." "Some mezzes..." " I'll handle that, don't worry." "Thanks, captain." " Where did you go to school?" "." " Kolej." "You?" "." "Deneme." "I have loads of friends from Deneme!" " Like who?" "." " Irem, Aysegul, Idil..." " You must know Alp." "Tall, fair..." " Curly..." " Right." "Curly Alp." " Yes, I know Alp." "Here you go, guys." " Thank you." " Thanks Captain." "I was at university with Alp after that." "But I've no idea what he did later." " Neither do I." " What did you do at the university?" "." "Uni.." "I was already working for my dad, so I wasn't that well prepared." "And then, to be honest, I didn't really make a go of it." "So you wanted to be a photographer right from the start." "Yes." "Not quite from the start, but let's say so." "Want some water?" "." " I'll drink it straight." " Here you are, the mezzes." " Thanks, captain." " Thank you." "I'll leave it to you to serve." "OK, thanks a lot." " Thank you." " It all looks great." "Weird, isn't it, that we never ran into each other in Ankara?" "." " Maybe we did." " Maybe." "In that case to our childhood meeting and that old photo I found years later." "Your lad with the bike still hasn't ridden past?" "." " I'm not waiting for him." " Of course you aren't!" " I'm just teasing." "Now on your feet!" " Where are we going?" "." "To have a beautiful picture taken of you, huh?" "." " I don't want to!" "I'm staying here." " Staying here, huh?" "." "You just come here!" "Alone for all the world to see It just isn't right" "How could you go so heartlessly?" "." "You can't just leave like that" "Ozgur?" "." "What are you doing, son?" "." "Didn't you promise not to run around?" "." " Look, you'll get all sweaty." " Mum, please!" "I'm so bored." " Can't I go out?" "." " Turn that off." "Bored, are you?" "." "Listen, if you promise not to run, you can take your dad his lunch." "OK?" "." " A man's word!" " A man's word." "OK, off you go then." " Hurray!" " Not so fast though!" "Hey, what's up?" "." "Lost your guts without the bike?" "." "Now, turn your head a little to the right." "I know you're bored, but it'll be over in a minute." "Look, like this." "That'll come out perfect." "Now I'll go "One, two, three!" and a bird will fly out of here." "OK?" "." "But you have to smile too." "Here we go then." "One, two, three!" "Smile a bit." "Smile, come on now." "Dad, your lunch..." "Ozgur, what have you done, son?" "." "I'm sorry, Kemal." "You clean up the mess there." "Come and I'll write you a ticket." " You come along too, dear." " OK." " Shall we shoot a film?" "." " Aha." " Thank you very much." " You're welcome." "Raki?" "." "No, I shouldn't drink any more." "Enough is enough." "OK." " Where are you performing in Ankara?" "."

"Deniz, will you marry me?" "." "I can't." " What do you mean, you can't?" "." " I can't marry you." " Why not?" "." " Because..." "Deniz, what's up with you?" "." "What's wrong?" "." "Look, if it's the acting thing, I've thought about that, Deniz." "Keep going." "You're right about that." "I'll be behind you all the way." "Deniz, what's going on?" "." "What's up with you, huh?" "." "I'm not in love with you, Burak." "Don't be ridiculous, Deniz!" "What's that supposed to mean?" "." "I'm sorry." "When did you decide that?" "." "What happened while I was away?" "." "Be straight with me, Deniz." "What do you mean all of a sudden, "I'm not in love with you"?" "." " What's this about?" "." " Because..." " Because...?" "." " I've fallen in love with someone else." "Don't be ridiculous, Deniz." "You're mad at me, that's all." "What do you mean you fell in love with someone else?" "." "What's happened the last three days?" "." "Who is he?" "." "What does he do?" "." "It doesn't matter who he is." "Burak, even if this hadn't happened you know we've never been perfect." "There's always been something missing." "What, Deniz?" "." " Everything's been perfect." " Burak, don't do this." "What have I done to you, Deniz?" "." "What's missing?" "." "Was I too all over you?" "." "Or didn't I care enough?" "." "I've always stood by you." "Always..." "I stood by you through your worst times." "When did you last tremble inside the moment you touched me, Burak?" "." "Huh?" "." "Has anywhere seemed beautiful to you just because I was there?" "." "Or have you felt really happy only and only because, I was with you?" "." "Has a fleeting moment spent together ever meant everything to you?" "." "What did you guys do, Deniz?" "." "Did you sleep together?" "." "What kind of question is that?" "." " Just asking." "Did you sleep together?" "." " What does it matter?" "." " Deniz, did you sleep together?" "." " You want to know?" "." "When?" "." "While I was away?" "." "Or when I was here?" "." "Huh?" "." "When was the last time?" "." "When..." "Don't go." " No way is this real." " Wrong, it's real." " Look at what you're asking!" " Give me one last chance, please!" "Believe me." "I'm leaving to give us a chance." "It may even be too late." "One last chance." "I would like to see Dr. Cem Yorgancioglu." "I'm afraid the doctor is really booked for the next two weeks." "I can't wait that long." "Besides I'm an old patient of his." "Could you tell him Ozgur Turgut is here?" "." "If you'd like to wait, I'll try to reach him." "OK, thanks." "So do we get on the train or what?" "." "I just called his home." "He'd left five minutes before." "What do we do?" "." " Should we get on or what?" "." " I say let's go." "Let's get on." "The valve repair will provide relief for a time." "But it doesn't actually solve the problem, as you know." "You mean I'll never fully recover?" "." "The real problem is the weakening of the heart muscles." "So it's rather up to you how much relief it will provide." "You need to avoid things like partying, the stage, excessive stress." " I see." "Thanks." " Hope you feel better soon." " Sorry about your ordeal." " Thank you." " Ozgur." "For heaven's sake." " Mum, it's been four weeks." "Considering I'm better now I can go." " Oh goodness!" "Where?" "." " To Istanbul." " But Istanbul." "Ozgur, you..." " Mum, don't worry." "I'm going to do as dad wants and be a photographer." " But not with him." " Son, I..." "Dad, you said if I walked through that door, I no longer existed for you." "You seem to have forgotten." "But I remember." "See you." "Yes, Ozgur." "Your results have come through." "Seems you haven't taken much care of yourself since the operation." "I've also checked your Istanbul file." "Take a look if you like." "No, you." "Go on." "Your condition's got much worse even in the space of a week." "How bad is it exactly?" "." "Ozgur, let me put it like this, knowing you have a thing about cars." "When the fuel light starts flashing you can drive another 30-40 km, right?" "." "That's exactly where you are." "We need to sort you out right away." "There's no sense in waiting for your turn." "You mean I..." "I should be hospitalized right now?" "." "Can you give me a few hours?" "." "To be honest, Ozgur, we need to hospitalize you at once." "In fact, you may also need respiratory support for a while." "But the decision is yours." "Here's my card." "Call if there's an emergency." "And in the meantime be sure not to exert yourself." "OK, thanks." "The guy's an artist but his material sucks!" "Hey, come on, Deniz!" "Stop moping." "Burak will soon be over it." "You'll see." "I thought at one point he'd never let go of my hand." "You did the right thing." "And that's that." "Hello?" "." "Ms. Usman?" "." "Yes?" "." "Deniz Usman, right?" "." "Yes." "Yes, that's me." "You auditioned for our project, if you remember." "Well, we'd like to work with you." "Really?" "." "Yes." "That's why I'm calling." "Oh my God!" "Thank you so much." "Seeing those photos made us decide." "So can we see you?" "." "OK, sure." "I'll call you a bit later." " Thanks a lot." "Speak to you later." "OK, goodbye." "They want me for that French film!" "The guy decided when he saw the photos." "I don't believe it!" "I must tell Ozgur." "I've no idea what to do." "I want to tell her, but I can't even call." " You must." "You have to." " So what do I say?" "." "The whole thing's up in the air." "I may not even come out alive." "Don't talk crap!" "What do you mean?" "." "Do you love the girl?" "." "Of course I do." "Yes!" "I'm crazy about her." "OK, I'm hanging up." "Call Deniz right now." "And I'll see you there." "I guess he's busy." "What are you doing, son?" "." "Didn't you promise not to run?" "." " Look, you'll get all sweaty." " Mum, please!" "I'm bored." "Can't I go out?" "." "Ozgur." "Son, if you're listening or if you listen one day I have a few things to say to you." "When a person sees the end of their life looming well they think differently." "Forgive me, son." "I know you feel bad too." "The reason you haven't come to me is because you're so like me." "That's why I can't be angry with you." "I can't be angry but I miss you terribly, Ozgur." "Remember what I said to you?" "." "I said your boundaries were set, that you couldn't step beyond them." "But I was missing the point, son." "The point isn't those set boundaries." "The point is how you fill the space within those boundaries." "Whatever things, whichever people give meaning to your life don't ever abandon them." "Never give up on them, son." "All living creatures have completed the bleak circle of life and died away." "Can I get in?" "." "My mother..." "Yes, my uncle fell ill on Thursday and we called my mother." "Why did you tell me you kissed the earth I walked on?" "." "I ought to be killed." "Sorry." "I'm so weary." "If I could rest..." "If I could rest a little..." "I'm a seagull." "No, I'm not." "I'm an actress." "Yes." "So he's here, too" "Well, fine." "What can be done?" "." "Easy now." "Easy." "I'll go round the other side." "I'm here." "Easy there." "OK, let's go." "Let's go to the Medicana Hospital." "Step on it driver." "I love him." "In fact, I love him more than before." "I love him with all my heart." "Hopelessly." " Congratulations." "It was wonderful." " Thank you." "Hello, Ozgur?" "." "Hello?" "." "Ozgur?" "." "Hello?" "." "Deniz?" "." "Burak?" "." "Ozgur's in bad shape." "We're on our way to hospital." "Hospital?" "." "Deniz Usman's family or friends!" "If we don't find a heart fast, we'll lose Ozgur." " What relation are you to her?" "." " I'm her mother." "We have the results of the brain scan." "I'm afraid she didn't respond to the function tests performed." "In that event, we have to conclude that brain death has occurred." "ORGAN  TISSUE DONATION CONSENT FORM" "Great news for you!" "We've found a compatible heart." " Really?" "." " Yes." "I'm tired of losing myself as I look for you" "A colleague will talk to you shortly about the necessary forms." "When I think I've found you I feel removed from myself" "This will be a strange farewell" "Because the truth is you're always inside me" "No matter how far I go you're with me everywhere" "I'm here my love." "There are no words to say" "You're going to get better." "I'm going" "Goodbye" "Goodbye" "Goodbye" "Goodbye" "I guess I was born with the soul of a mare" "It's in my blood to rear up and gallop" "Goodbye" "A little water, a little grass Home is everywhere" "I carry the world on my back" "Every language is mine" "But there are no words to say" "I'm going" "Goodbye" "Goodbye" "Goodbye"
