Winter Sleep (Kiş uykusu) by Nuri Bilge Ceylan (2014, 196 min.). Shot with his trademark exquisite beauty, Ceylan’s latest work examines socioeconomic divides in Turkey. Former actor Aydin runs a small hotel in central Anatolia with his young wife Nihal, with whom he has a stormy relationship, and his sister Necla, who is struggling with her recent divorce. As winter begins and the snow begins to fall, the hotel turns into a shelter but also an inescapable place that fuels their animosities. Winner of the Palme d’Or at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival.
