Yusuf works for a shipping company that salvages and sells sunken shipwrecks. His beautiful wife Meryem is a modest teacher who gives private lessons and is two months pregnant. The couple is unaware that their short trip to work on a sunken ship project off the coast of Bozcaada will turn into a nightmare because of a letter left by a woman they have never met. At the same time, Adem, a desperate soldier who has learned that his wife has run off with another man, is on the brink of madness, frantically calling his only friend on the island, the former diver Niko, for help. The sun sets, the sky splits, and when that hour comes, fate brings the partners together. One of the four whose lives intersect that night is destined to die. The hearts of the remaining three are filled with a hellish heat.
A lonely little Hawaiian girl and her mischievous blue alien friend form a bond that heals both of their hearts, as well as ours. This live action version adds emotional nuances—notably in the sisters’ dynamic—while preserving the charm of the original.
With mismatched eyes, a willingness to experiment with hair color and style, and a rail thin frame, Bowie always drew attention. But he shunned gendered attractiveness, creating his own space somewhere in between. This hallucinatory and often nonlinear 2022 documentary is a perfect salute to David Bowie’s life and career. Rather than interviewing those that knew Bowie, the standard convention for biographical portraits, director Brett Morgen mostly lets the artist’s images, performances, videos, and words speak to capture the essence of the artist. Bowie was more than just a pop star. He painted, sculpted, acted in films, and was a thoughtful and articulate person who gave sincere answers to even the most shallow interview questions.
