Fiction, Turkish ; English sub, Türkiye, Germany, Serbia, 2021, Color, 93’

A small, snow-covered, remote town in Türkiye. Winter has always been rough here, but this year it doesn’t come to an end – almost in a surreal way. The roads are blocked due to heavy snowfall. The rumour is that bears have risen early from their winter sleep and killed some animals around. Aslı, a young nurse, has recently arrived to do her compulsory service here. One cold night, a man from the town goes missing. Step by step, Aslı finds herself in the middle of intertwined power relationships, secrets, and doubts.
