Why watch this film?

Nuri Bilge Ceylan, winner of the Golden Palm for 'Winter Sleep', is without a doubt one of the most recognized contemporary film authors. His films are loaded with contemplative visuals and long dialogues with a strong philosophical load, which can even test the most assiduous viewers. His new work, 'The Wild Pear Tree', opts for literary digression as a narrative apparatus that has as its final product a deep reflection on the role of art in modern societies. We are also faced with a hyper-realistic portrait of a complicated father-son relationship, but also of people with their places of origin, with excellent performances that result in characters with great emotional depth. A must-see movie for any lover of the seventh art, who boasts of being one.
