ONCE UPON A TIME IN ANATOLIA Turkey’s pre-eminent auteur Nuri Bilge Ceylan took home the Grand Prix prize from the Cannes Film Festival with this hypnotic, slow-burning neo-noir. In Ceylan’s trademark visual rhythms, mysteries stack upon mysteries in an enigmatic journey through a landscape, a murder, and a chiaroscuro night. In the dead of night, a police commissioner, a prosecutor, a doctor and a murder suspect drive through the tenebrous Anatolian countryside. They are searching for a corpse, the victim of a brutal murder. As the night draws on, the investigators’ own secrets and hypocrisies come to light. 30 Days of Great Cinema Free: https://mubi.com/youtube​ Subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://mubi.io/2XVL0VN​ Follow us on Instagram: http://mubi.tv/299eJ7G​ Follow us on Twitter: http://mubi.tv/1PcdRyO​ Follow us on Facebook: http://mubi.tv/29adiHj
