Angel's Fall

Turkish writer and director Semih Kaplanoglu made this gloomy and cold film about two lost in Istanbul. A lonely woman who lives a miserable life as a hotel chambermaid and daughter of an abusive man who crosses paths with a lonely man who mourns the death of his wife which leads to the woman's fall from grace. Heavy on art and symbolism which drowns the story and its characters who needed more heart and maybe some hope or redemption. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
