Experience the true meaning of terror with the story of a hearse driver who is about to witness the scare of his life!
Cemal is a lonely, odd hearse driver who one day is roped into a dodgy scheme: drive a corpse across the vast of Anatolia to her family in the east unofficially. Already uncomfortable, he finds his world completed uprooted when he discovers that his mission is not what he was told.
Orçun Behram’s debut Antenna was a blistering meld of dystopia and horror - here he turns his camera to the lonely landscape of Central Anatolia and the character of Cemal: a loner who finds company in the most unexpected of places - death. Using a muted palette, Orçun crafts a living, breathing world within modern Turkey - as his mission starts to threaten his very existence, Cemal realizes he’s going to have to step up to the plate for the first time in his life. Stark, bold and brilliant, The Funeral delivers on Orçun’s promising debut with verve and style.
