“A Turkish drama; A story about a small Turkish army squad left to guard a field antenna on a border mountain. It suddenly falls to an ambush from ISIS. This is an entertainingly heroic story of two soldiers trapped in the ambush, fighting for their lives with humorous interplay between an educated, wealthy young man, and a coarse street smart ruffian. In a series of backstory flashbacks we learn more about their lives and their digs. The acting is good – it is gratifying to watch the characters put aside their differences and learn to trust each other to try and survive an unforgiving situation. The cinematography is good with the landscape is beautifully captured. There is enough tension built at the right moments in sequences to make it very watchable.”
