Turquaze, (2010, 100 min.)
Dir. Kadir Balci. Having buried their father in Istanbul, Timur (28) and his two
brothers, Ediz (36) and Bora (16), return to Ghent. Their mother remains in Istanbul.
The three brothers resume their lives but need to find a new balance. While Ediz
plays the dominant father and Bora does silly things with the wrong friends, Timur
tries to fulfil his father’s dream: playing the trumpet in a brass band. Sarah, Timur’s
girlfriend, thinks it’s cool, until she realises how little he seems to notice her
now…Turquaze presents a disarmingly honest chronicle of a Turkish family’s life in
Ghent … Turkish for beginners!
Belgian beer reception to follow!
