Screening at the Viroflay Auditorium of the film ‘The Edge of Heaven’ by Fatih Akin, winner of the Best Screenplay Award at Cannes in 2007
Despite his son Nejat’s reservations, Ali, a widower, decides to start a new life with Yeter, a prostitute of Turkish origin like himself.
But Nejat, a young German teacher, soon grows fond of Yeter when he realises that she sends almost all her money to her daughter in Turkey to pay for her higher education…
A poignant tale of shifting loyalties, set against the backdrop of the exile imposed by a world where people, in the name of survival, are forced into uprooting.
