Synopsis:

Waiting for the Clouds tells the story of one of the Pontic people who continue to live in the Black Sea highlands, hiding their ethnic identity. Director Yeşim Ustaoğlu's film, inspired by Yorgos Andreadis' novel Tamama: The Lost Daughter of Pontus, which won the Abdi İpekçi Peace and Friendship Prize, delicately explores the concepts of identity, belonging, family and the bonds of love. Set in 1975, Waiting for the Clouds focuses on the reunion of Eleni and Niko after fifty years of separation, who lost their families during their exile from Pontus at the end of World War I and were adopted. The film is a tribute to the resilience of Black Sea women, symbolized by the mountains, as it brings the pain, fear, loss, suppressed longings and inner reckoning of individuals who are victims of wars and major political changes out of the clouds and makes them clear. Ayşe / Eleni comes to life with the unique performance of Rüçhan Çalışkur, the festival's Cinema Honorary Award winner.
