Mahmut is a cosmopolitan photographer who hit a creative and personal wall.

There's nothing to add to this. Brilliant photogenic meditation on loneliness, hopelessness and closedness. A film imbued with the hopeless beauty of solitude to the last second. After watching it, I absolutely experienced a feeling of complete fulfillment. If this were to be the last film I ever saw, I would be fully satisfied.
