BICYCLE

Firat and his father collect garbage to survive. One day, the young boy discovers a partly intact bicycle in the trash and begins dreaming of a life of play.

Applying a simple yet powerful style to weave an emotional story of a father and his son, Serhat Karaaslan’s no-budget film is an homage to Vittorio De Sica’s classic Bicycle Thieves. Without a single line of dialogue, the minimalist Bicycle manifests a compassionate way of looking at destitution.
