Brother's Keeper
In a small Turkish village in the middle of the harsh winter, a tough boarding school lives its daily life. This is not an ordinary day, because in the morning one child is found mysteriously ill and apart from another child, no-one from the school takes the time and responsibility to help him. To save his friend, the child fights for the attention of the ignorant school staff, and bureaucracy. The following events make school staff and children away from home, seriously overestimate the values of life.
Humane humor, which surprises with pleasant creativity, gives a pleasant undercurrent to serious topics. The captivating story and characters are supported by beautiful shots and a powerful visual environment. The ground is covered with snowdrifts, the ice-cold wind blows and suddenly you can feel the cold breeze rushing over the warmth of the cinema.
