Dry Summer. Underneath all the beautifully laid-out drama and rustic narrative, lies bare the inconvenient truth of an innocent woman's life...or the lack of it. There is water and there is Osman. There are neighbors and the good-looking Hasan. And although not the main object of interest of the movie, the spring-clean innocence of Bahar clearly epitomizes the life of a woman...or the lack of it. For she loves, labors, and accepts deceipt; all with her characteristic innocence. Only to lose it all in the end, along with her wasted life.
