Take from 8570,

we've still got 5372 m2.

And then there's Article F

and Article E.

lt deals with poplars.

Article 1 69, after a certain

time having the forest land.

Anyway,

there's no forest.

l don't understand why

you're making such an effort.

What are you going to do with it

if you finally get it?

l don't intend to die

before all this is over.

l won't go anywhere before

l finish to work on my land.

lt doesn't make any difference

whether it's yours.

this place has been

mine for years anyway.

These trees were so small.

One day a forrester came

and said:
Nice work but we will

take it away from you.

How can they? Do we live

in the age of tyrants?

By law they can take it.

-They can't take it by law.

Look around, there are only fields.

Everyone here cut down

the trees in their fields.

They told me to do the same. Then the

forester would have just gone away.

They cut down all the trees.

And the governor came and

gave them their title deeds.

And then they come to me

saying this is a forest.

l could have cut down

the trees away.

Then the forrester wouldn't

have said anything.

What are you afraid of?

-l'm not.

But you know

this is Turkey.

Someone will come

and say this and that.

lt's not that easy.

l put my life into this.

l won't give away

my land so easy.

That's why l have to be here

when they come.

Hell, l've got no friends left.

They all went to university.

All the dumb people in my class,

got into the university and left.

l'm sure that something

fishy is going on here.

Did you enter the university

exam this year? - Of course.

The red light of the camera

is on, Muzaffer.

Never mind.

What's the result of your exam?

l failed again.

l looked for a job

and ended up...

working in the factory.

lf this film works out,

will you leave work?

Of course l will.

l think the tape is rolling.

-Never mind, it does.

l will give up my job.

Will you be able to

find me a job in lstanbul?

l guess l will.

As long as it's lstanbul

l don't mind what job it is.

lf not, you can work with

us, we'll take care of you.

Take me to lstanbul

We'll see.

l want to get out of this sh*t place.

Come and sit down.

No, l'm going to read a book.

Mesut loves Ataturk very much.

Can you write it down?

Let's see.

Mesut loves Ataturk very much.

Do you love Ataturk, Mesut?

-Yes.

The sentence is finished Mesut.

What do we put at the end?

-What do we put?

-A fullstop.

Yes, we put a fullstop.

Now let's see

if Mesut wrote it right.

Just a minute.

You can sit down.

Come Tuba, what is wrong here?

Has she written it correctly?

-Yes.

What did Mesut do wrong?

Who knows this sign?

Who knows this sign?
