TEREDDÜT ÇİZGİSİ (HESITATION WOUND)

24 hours in the life of Canan: whilst this lawyer has to make difficult family-related decisions, the judgement in an important court hearing is about to be pronounced. Canan, who wants to do everything right both in her private and professional life, navigates between moral principles and pragmatism and ultimately has to push the boundaries between altruism and ego. The legal system seems to be as much in need of repair as its building. Selman Nacar's second feature-length film is a gripping courtroom drama in which he almost incidentally addresses the everyday nature of corruption and abuse of power.
