In the dead of night, a group of men - among them, a police commissioner, a prosecutor, a doctor and a murder suspect - drive through the Anatolian countryside, the serpentine roads and rolling hills lit only by the headlights of their cars. They are searching for a corpse, the victim of a brutal murder… In the Anatolian steppes nothing is what it seems; and when the body is found, the real questions begin. See cinemaguild.com trailer.
