This wonderful, sad and haunting Turkish film (set in a small village in the north of that country) tells the tale of five teenaged sisters who, after being spotted by nosey neighbours having innocent fun on the beach with male classmates, have their freedoms progressively circumscribed by their very traditional family until they can be married off (to spouses which the families choose for them). The actresses who play the 5 sisters make this film one I highly recommend. (Subtitles.)
