Like a kind of theater walking, this film by Nury Bilge Ceylan insists in talks and talks adorned with suggestive color and some impressive landscapes, but what is wanted to be a deep philosophical exposition through the voices of relegated people in a far away place is no more than a wearisome shallow conversation about life, literature, religion, love, failure,family relation,money and what not. The father of the writer wants to discover water in a dry well, his son at the end prosecutes the unsuccessful, labor. The same result for the movie. Only the dogs, in silence or barking, and one of them committing suicide say more than the long verbosity .
