I saw In the Morning this fall (2004) and immediately came away from it feeling like this was a fresh new short from a fresh new voice. You'd never know the film wasn't shot in Turkey and that it was made by an American. If you get the chance to catch it at a festival or online, take the time. I won't delve into the content cause it's a short and it'll be easy enough for you to figure it out when you see it. It's Short(duh!), moody as hell (i.e. beautifully shot) and well directed. The hand-held camera, dark lighting and gritty look lends itself incredibly well to the content. Don't be surprised if this short nabs some awards as it has a lot going for it. If you like a good short film, In the Morning will stay with you.
