    What is Climates about?

    Man was made to be happy for simple reasons and unhappy for even simpler ones – just as he is born for simple reasons and dies for even simpler ones... Isa and Bahar are two lonely figures dragged through the ever-changing climate of their inner selves in pursuit of a happiness that no longer belongs to them.

    Climates (2006) Review: A Relationship in Three Seasons

    Climates is Nuri Bilge Ceylan's austere Turkish breakup drama, starring Ceylan and Ebru Ceylan as a couple drifting apart across summer, autumn and winter.

    Mostly yes. It is a precise, beautifully shot study of a failing relationship for patient art-house viewers, though its chilly protagonist and slow pace will test others.
