Turkey is a country which has grown with the French idea of "composed" filmmaking. The American octane-driven film grammar used to be a big no-no here. Smooth, flowing, often painfully slow (sometimes boring) exposition was the norm. Hence the entire industry evolved to be "discreet and extremely meticulous" at the expense of efficiency and the use of shock-tactics. Fortunately my precise generation of filmmakers seek to obliterate this status quo.
