Nuri Bilge Ceylan : 2014
Kış uykusu
Set in the hilly landscape of Cappadocia in Central Anatolia. A former actor, Aydin owns a small hotel cut into the hillside, which he runs with his younger wife Nihal. He has also inherited local properties, but leaves the business of rent collection to his agent. When a local boy, resentful of his father's humiliation by Aydin's agent, throws a stone at a jeep whilst Aydin and his agent are driving in it, Aydin ducks out of any responsibility or involvement. As the story progresses, the cocoon in which this self-satisfied man has wrapped himself is gradually unravelled. In a series of set-pieces, Aydin is exposed in his encounters with his wife, sister, and the family of the stone-throwing boy. He is finally brought face-to-face with who he truly is. Nuri Bilge Ceylan's seventh feature received the FIPRESCI Prize and was awarded the Palme d'Or when it premiered at Festival de Cannes 2014.
