Yol

The Road, which won the Palme d'Or at the 1982 Cannes Film Festival, is a unique phenomenon in world cinema, from its script writing to its shooting. In this book, in addition to the script text, you will also find the reactions that the film aroused abroad and interviews with Yılmaz Güney about the Yol project.

“It is known under what difficult conditions we built the Road. The lesson to be learned here is this. Even under the most difficult, incredible circumstances, paths to success can be found. This is possible not only in the field of art, but in all areas of life. As long as we follow a correct and sound policy, understand the responsibilities and duties of collective work well, and show the necessary patience..."

-Yılmaz Güney-

“… A 45-minute queue outside a popular cinema in Quartier Latin. The hall is packed, attentive, excited. After the movie ends, first there is a great silence, then applause. A lot has been said and written about Yılmaz Güney's The Road. But how the film was received is an event in itself.”
