Toss-Up
Yazı TuraAfter sustaining life-altering physical and psychological trauma while serving in southeastern Turkey, two young veterans struggle to reintegrate into civilian society. In Cappadocia, Rıdvan, a former amateur footballer who lost a leg to a landmine, faces broken dreams and alienation within his close-knit rural community. Meanwhile in Istanbul, Cevher, left deaf in one ear after an explosion, navigates family grief, urban isolation, and a poignant connection with an older Greek neighbor. Through their parallel struggles, the drama examines unaddressed post-war trauma, socio-political fractures, and the harsh realities confronting returning conscripts.

The theater was virtually empty; only 8 of us watched it in that huge hall. I feel sorrow for the Turkish film industry. The acting performances are exceptional. I loved the camera technique. I recommend it to everyone. A film that absolutely must be experienced.
000alper on Beyazperde Perhaps the biggest reason this film moved me is its incredible simplicity and naturalness. What Cevher told the police in that final scene completely choked me up. Cevher called heads and Rıdvan called tails, but who could have guessed the coin would land on its edge, with unforeseen events destroying their lives.
