Plot

A film about the repressed violence and projections of a Turkish family on holiday. A patriarch gathers his relatives at his farm, where they are afraid of mysterious outsiders in the surrounding hills, and their fear grows until it explodes. Emin Alper's 2012 debut, whose title means "Beyond the Hill", won the Caligari Film Prize in Berlin.

Sinekatalog’s take

Emin Alper gathers a patriarch's relatives at his farm, where their fear of mysterious outsiders in the hills grows into violence. A tense, dry debut about projected fears and the way a family can turn on itself.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
