MUSTANG


February 13 – 18

MUSTANG

Academy Award Nominee: Foreign Language Film

Dir: Deniz Gamze Ergüven / 2015 / France, Germany, Turkey, Qatar / Turkish w/ English subtitles / 97 min / DCP

In the Best Foreign Film Oscar nominee MUSTANG, young sisters rebel in the midst of patriarchal society. On the last day of school five girls frolic on the beach with some boys. What is innocent fun for the girls is a moral outrage in the Turkish village where they reside. The sisters end up confined to their home by relatives determined to crush their will in the name of subservience. But being trapped in conservative hell cannot dim the sisters’ defiant and radiant light. Katie Walsh of the Los Angeles Times says, “Mustang is a celebration of fierce femininity and a damning indictment of patriarchal systems that seek to destroy and control this spirit.”
