Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
Planning to take any job she can get in order to save enough money and leave Turkey for the U.S., Mina is hired as a fortune teller who reads the dregs in coffee cups. She discovers she has the ability to offer comfort and insight to the customers who are just as lost in the wilderness as she is.
Belmin Söylemez’s debut film is a portrait of a young disillusioned woman who is obsessed with the future and aloof to what is going on around her at the moment. Capturing the mood of a generation who feels stuck and aimless, this carefully-paced, character-driven story is tender and reflective.
