Overview
Young Memo, boarder at a secluded and repressive boys’ school in the Turkish mountains, falls mysteriously ill. Yusuf, his twelve-year-old deskmate, struggles through the bureaucracy of the school authorities to get help for his friend.
When the tutors finally realize the seriousness of the little boy’s condition, and try to get him to a hospital, the school gets completely isolated under a heavy snowfall. While trying to get outside help, teachers and students start on a blaming game where grudges, guilt feelings and hidden secrets surface while time inexorably ticks on.
