A nicely shaded, satisfying tale of female empowerment with a striking central performance from Damla Sönmez.

Rating: 3/5 --
The film discards the stereotype in cinema where a woman in trouble needs a male figure to trigger her decisions. [Full review in Spanish]

El antepenúltimo mohicano
Sibel ticks off so many currently hot-button-category boxes... but in the hands of co-directors Çagla Zencirci and Guillaume Giovanetti and co-screenwriter Ramata Sy, they mould and decay into a musty laundry list of formula items.

Painful and honest.

Rating: 4/5 --
The film illuminates patriarchy's persistence - and the sexual repression that goes with it - in rural Turkey but thankfully never uses a sledgehammer.

Rating: B+ --
Perceptively, Sibel understands patriarchy as a straightjacket affecting both men and women.

The Film Stage
Description by OLDIES.com:
25-year-old Sibel (Damla Sönmez) lives with her father and sister in a secluded village in the mountains of Turkey's Black Sea region. Sibel is a mute, but she communicates by using the ancestral whistled language of the area. Rejected by her fellow villagers, she relentlessly hunts down a wolf that is said to be prowling in the neighboring forest, sparking off fears and fantasies among the village women. There she crosses path with a fugitive. Injured, threatening and vulnerable, he is the first one to take a fresh look at her.
