What is Climates about?

Man was made to be happy for simple reasons and unhappy for even simpler ones – just as he is born for simple reasons and dies for even simpler ones… Isa and Bahar are two lonely figures dragged through the ever-changing climate of their inner selves in pursuit of a happiness that no longer belongs to them.

Critics consensus: Ceylan’s FIPRESCI-winning relationship study bridges Distant and Three Monkeys — core viewing for anyone following Turkey’s Golden Orange generation. The film stars Ebru Ceylan, Nuri Bilge Ceylan, Nazan Kesal, Mehmet Eryılmaz, Arif Aşçı, and others.
