Synopsis:

The sixth feature from acclaimed Turkish director Reha Erdem, Kosmos is a profoundly imaginative and cinematic journey that bursts with philosophical ideas, mystical subplots and some truly surreal moments. Kosmos (Sermet Yesil) appears as if from nowhere, on the outskirts of a snow swept border town, and rescues a local boy from drowning in the river. He is hailed a miracle worker and the townsfolk quickly welcome him into their community. But as Kosmos becomes entangled in the lives of the locals, it is less and less clear whether he is a force of good or evil – he performs miracles, climbs trees, smashes shop windows, steals money and engages in a bizarre love affair with a local girl. Meanwhile satellites crash to earth, wild geese roam the streets and military troops prepare for war as this singular film builds to its dizzying, surreal climax.
