A group of men set out in search of a dead body in the Anatolian steppes.
The film at two and half hours is a slow burner but it is a very rewarding experience. It is a masterpiece. It won the Grand Prix at Cannes. Back story is not given but a general picture of each of the character's inner turmoil is formed by the end. There are a couple of standout sequences, especially the one where the Mayor's daughter serves all of them tea, I guess.
