Burning Days (ENG SUBS)

Yaniklar, a small municipality situated in western Turkey, is currently grappling with a water crisis and deep-penetrating sinkholes. Following the inexplicable disappearance of the previous prosecutor, Emre has assumed the role. However, the prevalence of corruption and the threatening atmosphere in the city have made his job particularly challenging. His encounter with the editor-in-chief of the local newspaper only adds to the sensationalism.

The film Burning Days, helmed by Sasja Koetsier, presents a foreboding and all-too-familiar portrayal of corruption in Turkey. The barren landscape of arid plains and profound sinkholes serves as a fitting backdrop for this harrowing tale.
