Cold of Kalandar (2015). 2h 10m

“Iu0026#39;d watched this picture in a theater, only with a few audiences. Besides, it was the only theater which was screening this movie in a 5-million-populated city. I suppose, thatu0026#39;s enough to say how u0026quot;underratedu0026quot; it is.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ePrimarily, this movie is result of an enormous effort. Some sequences were probably waited to take for months; all scripted climatic changes were in natural schedule. Peaks, caves, cliffs… Every kind of topography had been background for strongly rough shots. Furthermore, acting of all inexperienced locals are astonishing. I would argue that real actors wouldnu0026#39;t act as good (natural) as locals did.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026quot;Human against natureu0026quot; is a strong theme if itu0026#39;s adapted into screen properly. A contemporary movie u0026quot;The Revenantu0026quot; is a powerful one, especially in cinematography, however itu0026#39;s naturalism imitates the reality. On the other hand, Cold of Calandar avoids the exaggeration of mankindu0026#39;s superhuman resistance. This movie is realityu0026#39;s itself: pure relentless nature and itu0026#39;s eternal and unguarded toy: human.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMustafa Kara is a promising director and fairly young (36) as well. Hopefully he keeps up his good work.”
