Now in the theatres: My Sweet Pepper Land

30th of July 2014, 17:48

Now in select theatres: My Sweet Pepper Land.

Baran, a Kurdish independence war hero, is now sheriff in Erbil, the capital city. No longer feeling useful in this society now at peace, he thinks about quitting the police force, but instead agrees to be stationed in a small valley, at the very borders of Iran, Turkey, and Iraq. It is a lawless territory, right at the heart of illegal drug, medication and alcohol trafficking. Having arrived in the small village, he refuses to bow down to Aga Azzi, the seriously corrupt tribal chief and absolute ruler of the area. Baran meets Govend, the village school teacher, who is also rejected by the villagers. Like Baran, she represents another law, that of the young and autonomous Kurdish state. Govend is all the more vulnerable as she is not a married woman.

Director: Hiner Saleem

Stars: Korkmaz Arslan, Golshifteh Farahani, Suat Usta

 

 

DUTCH VERSION

Vanaf deze week in de bioscoop

Western komedie van Hiner Saleem met Korkmaz Arslan, Golshifteh Farahani, Suat Usta

Baran, een vroegere oorlogsheld, aanvaardt de job van politieman ergens ver weg in de bergen, in een grensdorpje met Turkije. Hij krijgt het er onmiddellijk aan de stok met de lokale “sterke man” Aziz Aga. Die bepaalt de wetten in de regio en verdient aardig wat geld met het smokkelen van medicijnen en alcohol van en naar Turkije. Aziz Aga heeft het niet begrepen op overheidsbemoeienis en wil dat alles bij het oude blijft, beknotting van vrouwenrechten incluis. Zo maakt hij de nieuw aangestelde onderwijzeres Govend het leven heel erg moeilijk...

 

Een pareltje van een western die ons inprent dat het Wilde Westen nog lang niet overal getemd is.

HUMO ★★★1/2

Een zinnenstrelende en thematisch rijke film.

DE STANDAARD ★★★

 

Zonder meer één van mijn favoriete films, met dank aan de gedurfde stijl. Het is de allereerste Koerdische cowboyfilm ooit.
