About Dry Grasses (2023). 3h 17m

“After Merve Dizdar received her award for best actress at Cannes, my expections were even higher for this NBC film, which was already high, due to his track record for some of the best Turkish films in recent years. And after watching it twice this week, I can safely say that the film lived to all of my expectations.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe plot, as his other filmsu0026#39;, may seem a bit ordinary, but once again the movie reflects a great depth of some personalities and multi perspective look to some of the facts that exist in a typical east Anatolian village today.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe scenario is very successful in capturing and reflecting some social dilemmas that many viewers will find themselves a part of, with some well prepared scripts that lead to very natural flowing deep dialogues, which are very well played by the leading actress and actor, and other actors.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNot to mention elaborate visuals, which bas already become an NBC signature, but this time smartly decorated with some strikingly beautiful still shots, most probably by NBC himself or his wife Ebru Ceylan, also a co-writer of the film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSnow has always been NBCu0026#39;s favorite background, but this time he has used it with some early or late hour shots that gave some beautiful visual effects. Similar to his Winter Sleep movie, usage of warm, low dim indirect lighting in some otherwise poor looking (or humble at best) places once again had resulted in painting like scenes, which also highlighted and emphasized some gestures of the actors/actress.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe title of my review is actually one of Nurayu0026#39;s lines at her closing scenes, which striked me most, among many others during the film. Although it seems to be directed to Kenan, it actually summarizes Sametu0026#39;s seeningöy never ending unrest.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI can safely say that this film represents a high point in NBCu0026#39;s successful career and will hopefully get more awards because it simply deserves it fully.”
