SILENCED TREE
FAYSAL SOYSAL
A short while after his dominant wife abandons the wimpy and meek Hayati, who is a literary
teacher in a patriarchal town, the police find an unrecognized female corpse by the lake.
Hayati wants to state that the body belongs to his wife and to take the blame for the murder
that someone else committed.
SYNOPSIS
Hayati is a small-town literature teacher and a one hit wonder author who tries helplessly
to hold on to his past: his shattering marriage, his sick old mother, a decaying walnut tree
and the memory of his father. Instead of moving on with his life and taking control, he
passively accepts its blows and is only interested in digging into the past, until his
discovery forces him to confront his own weakness and answer the question: is standing
idle while witnessing evil being done is just as much of a sin as doing it?

A LOVE WORTH FIGHTING FOR
TOBY FOUNTAINE
A Love Worth Fighting For is set in the opening month of the First World War, August 1914. But it is not a war film, rather an anti-war film, and a love story. It is meticulously researched and
historically accurate.
Just after every major European power has been drawn into a conflict they do not know how to
fight, politicians and generals are sleepwalking their way towards unimaginable catastrophe with
all the arrogance that defined the Edwardian age. The conflict will become enormous, the scale
of destruction almost inconceivable.
Against this epic backdrop, the film throws into relief the lives of just two men. They are
insignificant players in one of the twentieth century’s greatest tragedies. But their stories are no
less poignant and compelling for it.
A Love Worth Fighting For examines immense concepts – the futility of war, nationality, love,
fidelity and human compassion – from the perspective of an English officer and a German
soldier.
The result is unique. It is poignant, compelling and sad. It asks difficult questions. Yet ultimately,
it ends with hope. Because without hope, what do we have…?
