Storyline -
A group of men including a police officer, a doctor, a district attorney, drivers, civil servants, grave diggers, gendarmerie forces and two homicide offender brothers drive through on rural Anatolian steppes in a single night at a town named Keskin in search of a body buried under an unknown location.The killer leads the police officer from one fountain to another because at the time of the crime he was intoxicated thus he can not recall specifically where he and his mentally challenged brother buried the body.Anatolian steppes' similarity and indistinguishable physical appearance does not help the killer nor the policeman in their quest because every fountain they arrive is pretty much same with the prior one.
During their mission Turkish men interact with each other under varying topics such as yoghurt, lamb chops, urination, family, spouses, ex-wives, death, suicide, hierarchy, bureaucracy, moral ethics, past, their jobs and especially about themselves behind each others back with a smile on their face and confess or imply secrets also things they feel guilty most about their personal lives.Before dawn the district attorney gets hungry so the group drops by at a nearby village to eat and drink.After the meal the killer confesses his purpose of the murder -the victims son was actually his and after he slipped that secret from his mouth, things got ugly- and whereabouts of the body.
The sun comes up, the body is discovered and taken to the state mortuary.The police leaves after the discovery, the D.A. invites victims wife to identify the body in the morgue women replies "Yes" the first and only word spoken by a female in the whole movie. Than he files necessary paperwork and leaves the corpse to the doctor for regular autopsy process.When they cut up the body, soil is visible in throat and lungs but the doctor intentionally does not put that evidence on record which proves that the victim was buried alive, may help the offenders getting away with smaller charges.The doctor watches the widower and her son through the window with blood of the victim on his face, the movie ends.
