Toss-Up

After 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.
