The Edge of Heaven


Nejat (Baki Davrak) is wracked by guilt when his father (Tuncel Kurtiz) accidentally kills Yeter (Nursel Köse), a prostitute, at his home in Hamburg. To assuage his conscience he decides to travel to Istanbul to track down Yeter's daughter and pay for her education. But Ayten (Nurgül Yesilçay) is part of political group and has fled to Germany to escape persecution. A film where the character's destinies flirt with one another as disparate cultures clash.
