Propaganda

In 1948, customs officer Mehdi (Kemal Sunal) is sent to the southeastern Turkish village where the new border with Syria must be drawn, straight through his own hometown. Sinan Çetin sets a darkly comic story among neighbors, families and lovers who wake up on opposite sides of a line. Rahim (Metin Akpınar) and the others keep to the same village, the same old language, and a boundary that suddenly cuts across all of it.
