One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
It’s the beginning of the summer. In a village in the north of Turkey, Lale and her four sisters come home from school, innocently playing with boys. The supposed debauchery of their games causes a scandal with unintended consequences. The family home slowly turns into a prison, classes on housework and cooking replace school, and marriages begin to be arranged. The five sisters, driven by the same desire for freedom, fight back against the limits imposed on them.
"Beautiful photography, great performances. However, what really hooks in 'Cinco Graças' is the story: the condemnation of sexualization by society, but in a way that manages to stay away from both tragedy and excessive optimism - all through five charismatic characters. Going from personal to societal concerns, the movie justifies the 24 international awards it has received, in addition to its 2016 Oscar nomination for Best Foreign Language Film."
