The critically acclaimed movie by Turgut Yasalar, Sis ve Gece (Fog and Night) (2007) has recently got a DVD release in Turkey, from D Productions. Sis ve Gece is a political crime drama based on a best-seller novel by Ahmet Umit. It tells the story of Sedat, a mid-aged secret service agent as he searches for his missing girlfriend Mine, in the political turmoil of '70s Turkey. Shot in tones of gray, the movie seems successful in reflecting the period's atmosphere. The production values look impressive from the trailer. DVD extras include a making-of documentary, interviews with Turgut Yasalar (director) and Ahmet Umit (writer) and the theatrical trailer. Subtitles are available in Turkish, English and German.
