Forget it while you're still ahead.

It's an empty dream.

- Hi.

- Come on in, Yusuf.

It's snowing like crazy.

Where were you till now?

I was trying to

find a job. You know.

So what happened?

Well, some said they would call me.

Others told me to come back

or that they'd think about it.

- What are you doing?

- What can I do? Surfing around...

Is there a problem with the job?

No. There's no problem.

It looks like they want someone

to act as a guarantor.

No guarantor, no job.

That's easy enough.

You can take care of that.

But I don't know anybody

in Istanbul.

I don't know what to do.

There was something here.

I just can't seem to...

The God-damned thing

has 50 channels

but there's only sh*t!

What a rip-off. Look at that!

I want to call home.

Can I use the phone?

All right.

The phone in the back room.

OK, go use it.

He refused to give us any credit?

What a bastard!

When I get back,

I'll punch him real good.

I'll punch out

his teeth one by one.

Anyway, forget about it.

I'll send you some money

as soon as I get a job.

Mahmut's going to Anatolia

to take pictures

and he says I should go with him.

If he gives me money,

I'll send it to you.

Then you throw that money

in that bastard's face.

Okay, take care.

That f***ing mouse!

"Our agency has no current need

for ship personnel."

Hello. I'm looking for

a job on a ship.

There're no jobs.

All right. Thanks anyway.

So, it's Canada?

Orhan got a very good offer.

We don't want to miss

this opportunity.

When are you leaving?

In two or three weeks.

By New Year, we'll be in a new country

starting a new life.

It's hard.

It's not so hard when you don't have that

much to leave behind.

We spent a lot of money

on doctors.

That's one reason

to sell the house.

We can settle that.

But I keep thinking about that baby matter.

How can they be sure it happened

because of the abortion you got?

They just say the abortion is

the most probable reason.

I was three months pregnant

if you remember?

I remember.

But we were about to get divorced.

That's why I didn't want it.

I'm not blaming you. Really.

Don't worry about it.

You should see a doctor in Canada.

I still doubt that one abortion

can cause infertility.

We didn't believe it either at first.

We went to different doctors.

But that's the way it is.

I've resigned myself actually

but it's hard for Orhan.

He really likes children.

I told him we could separate.

He doesn't want to.

It's empty.

Have one of these

sailor cigarettes.

How can you smoke that sh*t?

There's still sun coming.

- Raise it a little.

- It seems okay.

Don't you see that?

Now, there it is.

Raise that light a little.
