Can

Turkey.
The title is pronounced “Chan” and is the name of an amazingly cute little boy. He has a lot of scenes in the movie, and is the reason to go to it. Great stuff. I like movies like this that center on everyday life in other places, in this case some non-Istanbul city in Turkey. I cannot say the story is especially uplifting or, for that matter, enjoyable, but it is well told. I think its intent is to focus on an Important Social Issue in present day Turkey more than it is to entertain.
