Gegen die Wand

Homegrown Turkish directors still continue to suffer the lack of genuine characters in their movies. Therefore I have not seen many movies in which ordinary Turks would identify with one single character in a specific film. 'Gegen die Wand' is different. Here all characters are genuine and alive, no single personality is 'exaggerated' in order to render him/her more interesting. Despite this lack of artificial manipulation each character attracts attention through his/her natural appearance, gestures, and dialogs. I believe that Faith Akin will continue to direct amazing movies like this in the coming years, and keep on exciting the viewers with fresh ideas and stories 一个年轻的在汉堡生活的土耳其少女斯贝为了摆脱父母的管束，决定与一个40多岁的土耳其男人假结婚。条件是双方不履行夫妻职责。丈夫是一个玩世不恭追求幻灭的酒鬼，他对土耳其的任何风俗习惯都毫无兴趣。最终他答应了斯贝的请求。不久他爱上了斯贝。当斯贝慢慢也对他产生感情时，却太迟了。由于嫉妒，丈夫攻击斯贝曾经的一夜男友，由此被监禁。斯贝逃离亲友，带着对丈夫的许诺来到伊斯坦布尔。在那里她尝试着过着平民式的生活。几年后，丈夫从监狱刑满释放，找到了自己的妻子，希望能找到曾经的和谐。
　　　　出色的表演、催眠式的声轨以及影片最后诠释的伤感，费斯•阿金向我们讲述了一种特殊状态下的爱，一种首先由身体的能量导致相互的情绪释放的情感。

《勇望直前》获得2004年柏林电影节金熊奖。
