Born in Germany of Turkish parentage, filmmaker Fatih Akin's newest
film is
an utterly assured and profoundly moving study in which the lives of
six
people -- four Turks and two Germans -- crisscross through love and
tragedy.
Akin continues his insightful exploration of the things that divide
and
bridge two seemingly different cultures and generations to arrive at
the
universal. The film stars Turkey's revered Tuncel Kurtiz and
Fassbinder-icon Hanna Schygulla, along with a cast of talented
performers.
