Milk

The second part of the biography of the poet Yusuf, this time spun around the motif of milk. Honey was about a relationship with a father, while Milk (often symbolically) describes the relationship between son and mother. An orthodox static camera, explicitly marginal dialogues and the calm speech of the symbol. Kaplanoğlu invites the viewer to perceive the film primarily emotionally. The emotionality of Milk stems from a magical visual again (albeit partly urban unlike Honey) and completely immediate non-acting performances. 102 minutes of poetry - poetry which Yusuf captures with words, and the director then conveys the image. Such a clean and slow film language is more of an exception Today. In Honey, I liked the Turkish meditation a little more. (03/28/2011)
