Synopsis
Persecution
Ayla is a conservatory student. Through a coincidence, she meets Tarık, a famous composer. They fall in love and soon become engaged. On a trip abroad, Tarık experiences one of Ayla's biggest traumas. This disaster will affect the fate of the duo in a bad way.
The Remains of the Day
A rule-bound head butler's world of manners and decorum in the household he maintains is tested by the arrival of a housekeeper who falls in love with him in post-WWI Britain. The possibility of romance and his master's cultivation of ties with the Nazi cause challenge his carefully maintained veneer of servitude.
