Join us for a screening of About Dry Grasses (15) in the Screening Room on 15 September 2024 at 4 PM.

From master filmmaker Nuri Bilge Ceylan (Winter Sleep, Once Upon a Time in Anatolia) comes a daring tale of betrayal, accusations and desire. Longing to escape the isolation of his quiet Anatolian village, disenchanted art teacher Samet wrestles with narcissistic ideas of unfulfilled potential. While battling accusations of inappropriate behaviour at his school, he unexpectedly strikes up a friendship with Nuray, a charismatic fellow teacher, which offers a welcome distraction. But when her affection moves to Samet’s more affable colleague, he becomes jealous and begins to compete for her attention. With breathtaking cinematography and outstanding performances, ABOUT DRY GRASSES is an engrossing new piece of cinema from award-winning director Ceylan
