<b>INT. BEST SURPRISE OF THE FESTIVAL - DAY</b>
When I heard the concept of the film, I'll be honest I wasn't that interested.
> A young teacher hopes to be appointed to Istanbul after mandatory duty at a small village. After long time waiting he loses all hope of escaping from this gloomy life. However, his colleague Nuray helps him to regain a perspective.
But, a moment in this film made me realise I was watching <i>cinema</i>. Thank you, Turkey, for this film. It was a treat! Now time to tally all the times someone called it 'About Dry Glasses.'
2 Hours of gripping drama, the final hour is happy hour from the director.
<b>FADE OUT.</b>
