Short filmTranscript
00:00I can't remember anything
00:06I'm again dead
00:12I can't remember this lesson
00:19I'm again coming to the world
00:24I don't have any time
00:30Did you get Murat a job because you felt bad?
00:33What, did your conscience take that long to kick in?
00:35You of all people can't play high and mighty.
00:37You ran away from everything.
00:39You lied to Elif Zuhal.
00:40I did lie to her.
00:41What have you done?
00:42In 20 whole years, what have you done for Elif?
00:46You were young and scared when you got pregnant.
00:48You left her. I get it.
00:50That's fine.
00:50What about after?
00:51You're claiming someone else's child as your own.
00:54You've always been like this.
00:55You create realities for yourself, even in high school.
00:58First a home, then a family, a perfect life that you made up in your head.
01:01You're not answering any of my questions.
01:03If Elif hadn't found those letters and tracked us down,
01:05would you have even remembered that you have a daughter?
01:07That's not the point.
01:08Are you kidding? That's exactly the point.
01:10The girl you gave up needed a mother and I gave her one.
01:15Do you want to be Elif's mother?
01:18Do you want to be a mother at all?
01:28Don't cram them all in.
01:49Look, now they're all wrinkled, Elif.
01:55I'll just iron them. It's fine. Don't worry.
02:05Are you taking the photo albums?
02:07No, I'll leave them.
02:09They belong to the old Elif.
02:12The old Elif?
02:13Staying stuck in the past isn't good for anyone.
02:18It's not good for me, and it's not good for Zuhal.
02:21Photos stay here and we move on.
02:26Just bring this one.
02:31Take this. I'll be down soon.
02:33I'll be down soon.
03:03I'll be down soon.
03:33It's done, Ms. Suhal. The room is all ready.
03:37Thank you. That's wonderful.
03:38There's something I need to tell you, Mert.
04:04I have a daughter.
04:08I made some more pastries.
04:24As soon as you get there, put them in the freezer.
04:27If she has one.
04:28She does.
04:29She does.
04:31Zuhal wants us to go out for dinner together.
04:34I don't know.
04:34It doesn't have to be now, just before you leave.
04:37Can't imagine why you'd want to.
04:39Because you took care of me.
04:40You raised me.
04:41You moved away from your family.
04:43She wants to thank you for always being there.
04:46Tell her she should do what she needs to do.
04:48There's no need to thank me with dinner.
04:50She'll be here soon.
04:51You can tell her yourself.
04:51I made you some jam.
04:56Let me pack it for you.
04:58Don't open it until you put it in the fridge.
05:01Or it'll spoil.
05:09Elif, mind coming over here for a second?
05:10Come.
05:16Take a seat.
05:20Oh, why'd you do that?
05:21Don't eat them raw.
05:22You'll get sick.
05:32What's that?
05:33Zuhal's necklace.
05:35My mom must have forgotten about this, too.
05:37Just like the letters.
05:38I found it in the box.
05:39I wonder who she is.
05:42Ariana Grande.
05:44It's her mother.
05:45Who do you think?
05:46So, she's my grandma.
05:48Some grandmother she's been to you.
05:54I'm sad that I'm leaving, too, okay?
05:56You know that.
05:57But we talked about it, Rahat.
06:00You'll be going home to your family soon.
06:02You think I'm upset about that?
06:04You're a woman now, Elif.
06:06That means you can take care of yourself.
06:07So, what is bothering you, then?
06:11There's something that you need to know.
06:16Do you have any children?
06:18I have a daughter.
06:20May the Lord protect her.
06:23Always.
06:23Oh, my dear.
06:37Where have you been all these years?
06:43Banu?
06:44I thought she couldn't have kids.
06:55After the funeral, she came over and told me everything.
07:05I don't understand.
07:06I don't understand.
07:06I don't understand.
07:29Hello.
07:30Hello.
07:30Are you crying?
07:37Allergies, that's all.
07:46Right.
07:47Shall we?
07:47Just a sec.
07:48Are you ready?
07:48Are you ready?
07:48Are you ready?
07:48Are you ready?
07:48Are you ready?
07:48Are you ready?
07:50Are you ready?
07:50Are you ready?
07:52Are you ready?
08:00I'll come back to see you off.
08:05Okay, dear.
08:08Well, let me help you with that.
08:10No, I got it.
08:11Oh, here.
08:11Watch the door.
08:12I was thinking after my event is wrapped, we should go traveling, do some sightseeing,
08:28maybe a bit of shopping.
08:29Sound good?
08:31Can you open it?
08:34You're being awfully quiet.
08:36Is something wrong?
08:37Tell you later.
08:37All right.
08:43Okay, so your bag can go there, and I'll take in here.
08:58She was living a lie for 20 years, but now her new mother's a liar, too.
09:02I don't blame Zuhal, not really.
09:05I blame myself.
09:06I don't know what to do.
09:08I don't know where I'm supposed to go, because instead of telling Elif the truth, I'm here
09:12talking to you.
09:19I thought I dealt with this 20 years ago, and now it comes back into my life.
09:23Aren't you going to ask me who the father is?
09:32I'm not going to do that.
09:40Whatever you decide to do, I'll be there.
09:43No matter what that is.
09:44What have we done, Nevra?
10:00What have I done?
10:02I feel so lost.
10:06I can't even imagine what it'll be like for Elif to learn the truth about where she comes
10:11from.
10:11And I can't imagine how Ali must have felt growing up without a father all those years.
10:17I understand that your daughter needs you right now, but we're your family, too.
10:27You haven't unpacked yet.
10:31I get it.
10:32This all happened so fast.
10:34Take some time to settle in.
10:35We can decorate later.
10:36There's no rush.
10:41Why don't you just tell me what's going on?
10:49What's the matter?
10:51Everything's good.
10:52What's going on with you?
10:55Well, I have you.
10:59What else could I ask for?
11:01You can have anything in the world.
11:03You are Zuhal Tanali.
11:16Zuhal Tanali.
11:19I created her.
11:22I worked so hard to build her public image.
11:24But I don't know who she really is anymore.
11:29Don't be fooled by all the glamour.
11:32My life isn't as shiny or as sparkly as it may seem.
11:37I've never been part of a happy family.
11:39I wasn't anyone's favourite child.
11:45I was no one's little rose.
11:51I truly wish that I was, but I wasn't.
11:54You lied to me.
11:55The only thing I've ever wanted my whole life was to survive.
12:08And I did what I had to do.
12:13But with you, everything's different.
12:16Now the only thing I want to do is sit down to dinner with you.
12:21I want to be a family with you.
12:23If that's something you want.
12:28If that's something you want.
12:53Thanks.
12:58Thanks.
13:21By the time I found out I was pregnant, it was too late for an abortion.
13:25Miss Fatma asked me not to leave her at an orphanage.
13:27She said she would raise her.
13:30I didn't know Miss Fatma was sick.
13:33I didn't want a stranger to raise my daughter, but then I lost track of them.
13:39So you looked for her?
13:40I did.
13:44But maybe I was hoping I wouldn't find her.
13:47Maybe I wanted to forget.
13:50What about the letter? Why did you write it?
13:54Miss Fatma was planning to tell Elif the whole truth once she turned 18 years old.
13:59But she said it should be up to Elif whether she wanted to look for her biological mother or not.
14:04I...
14:05I thought she knew that...
14:07That she knew that I was out there but didn't want to know who I was.
14:10And you kept this from me the whole time.
14:14Of course.
14:16If I'd known about Elif it would have messed up your life.
14:20Maybe it would have. I really don't know.
14:23So then why speak up?
14:24What about that night finally made you say it?
14:29Zuhal made it sound like she had a right to Elif...
14:31Just like you have a right to her?
14:33Pretty nice that you get to do what you want?
14:37You wanted to stay quiet so you did.
14:38You wanted to speak up so you did.
14:40I don't even know you anymore.
14:42Who are we?
14:44I'm sorry.
14:45And just when I was starting over again...
14:48I don't see why any of that needs to change.
14:52Really, Banu?
14:53What else should I do?
14:57Go ahead. Don't hold back.
15:01After all, you're the one calling the shots...
15:02Without asking what Elif thinks or what I think.
15:05Tell me what I should do.
15:07I should leave?
15:08You want that?
15:11I'm not going to do it.
15:13I'm not that kind of person.
15:17I won't do what you did.
15:27It's all tuned up.
15:44We're ready to go.
15:45You look upset.
15:46You mad at the guitar?
15:51You're right.
15:52It was a bad joke.
15:55Feelings are fickle creatures.
15:56One minute you're down, the next you're up.
15:59It's normal to feel that way.
16:02It's normal for life to kick you when you're down.
16:06I never thought I'd miss this stuff.
16:08Staying up all night backstage, getting zero sleep.
16:12Turning pages at a concert.
16:14I miss that, too.
16:17Your life's just beginning, Elif.
16:19You've got plenty of time for everything.
16:21But do you maybe think you're being a bit immature?
16:24This has nothing to do with my maturity.
16:27This is about adults not behaving like adults.
16:31Maybe she's having trouble being brave.
16:34What if she needs a bit of help to get there?
16:39Maybe she needs someone to give her a little dose of courage, Elif.
16:41Why don't you go home?
16:50Are you sure?
16:50Mm-hmm.
17:07You're welcome.
17:08It's about late.
17:09¡No!
17:09Otlarım yana.
17:11S –
17:11Sensizlik nadasında toprağım.
17:21T silicon.
17:22Birazcık dinlensin, büyüsün, dişersin, gelmişin.
17:34Hiçbir şey diyen bir cümlenin ortasına terk edilmiş bir kelimeyim.
17:46Öznesiz, zamansız, zaafsız, mektupsuz, adressiz.
18:02Seni arar durup bir kölebeğim, çık orta yanıp yaralarım iyilsin.
18:14Çok zaman geçti, çok zaman geçti.
18:21Har vermeden gelme, sorulup ürkerten alım.
18:28Kıskanır ağlar belki, ben ağlayamazsam, gücenme ne olur.
18:40Gözlerim bitti, gözlerim bitti.
18:46Gözlerim bitti.
18:58Gözlerim bitti, gözlerim bitti.
19:17Teşekkürler.

28:02Today is my birthday, and I've grown up.
28:11I've learned that you can't change anyone.
28:14You can only love them for who they are.
28:20I've learned you have to embrace the truth, no matter how scary it gets.
28:28I've learned to make peace with my mistakes, instead of running away from them.
28:32I've learned to heal.
28:38Today is my birthday, and I've grown up.
28:43A letter from the past arrived, and it turned my life upside down.
28:47But then it taught me that no matter what, you must never lose hope.
28:52A letter from the past arrived, and it led me to the real Elif.
