The story is a powerful and fascinating tale of several prisoners on temporary leave from a prison, and the crucial events that they face. Tragedy and sadness are prevalent, despite the fact that each character's leave has a very different outcome, and the film excellently and compellingly explores how the characters must face their difficult circumstances. It addresses a wide range of forces, political, social, familial, that impact the lives of the characters, and comments on all of these. The film's exploration of these issues ranges from blunt and harsh, to subtle and satirical and the actors are simply fabulous.







Realized on film by Yilmaz Güney's assistant director Serif Gören based on the screenplay by - and technical direction of - imprisoned political prisoner, author, actor, and filmmaker Güney, Yol is an elegantly spare, haunting, and socially relevant portrait of repression, tyranny, isolation, and inhumanity. By juxtaposing images of transnational public transportation (in particular, trains and rural buses) and varied landscape that characterize the disparate paths of the furloughed prisoners, Güney illustrates, not only the country's innate cultural and ethnographic diversity, but more importantly, the universality of oppression.

Moreover, through repeated episodes of martial law curfews, random check points and inspections, and civilian searches, Güney draws an implicit parallel in the paradoxical status of the conditionally liberated prisoners with the broader depiction of curtailed personal freedom among the general population under the nation's military rule. Inevitably, the sad, often tragic plight of the prisoners' elusive search for a sense of normalcy serves, not only as a microcosmic representation of life under political instability and a repressive regime, but also as a distilled and elementally human contemporary document of desolation, struggle, compassion, and perseverance.

Güney’s approach to his topic goes way beyond simplistic finger-pointing however. It goes without saying that a leftist like Güney is going to be critical of the repressive government and military elements in Turkey, but, surprisingly, Güney saves his most scathing attacks for some of the more archaic values and traditions of the people of Turkey. He places a great deal of the blame on the nature of the society and its belief systems. This is a society that badly mistreats its women. Even though this film is composed of five nearly independent storylines, they add to each other’s strength by their interactions.

El camino
Una prisión en Turquía. Cinco prisioneros reciben permiso para viajar a sus casas durante una semana. Los difíciles viajes para llegar hasta sus familias nos conducen a las regiones más alejadas de Turquía. Cada uno de ellos tiene sus propios problemas, preocupaciones y nostalgias. Rigurosas leyes, escritas y no escritas, y un sistema brutal son una carga que pesa sobre ellos. Sufren violencia y ejercen violencia. Las vacaciones, comenzadas con esperanza, terminan con dolor.

Yol tiene la insólita cualidad de haber sido realizada prácticamente desde prisión por el director Yilmaz Güney. El realizador turco se encontraba encarcelado desde 1975 por una dudosa acusación de asesinato pero, dada su popularidad, podía seguir realizando películas dando precisas instrucciones a sus asistentes de fuera de la cárcel. A punto de terminarla Güney consiguió escapar de prisión y huir a Suiza donde la montó, la presentó en Cannes... y ganó. Güney murió dos años después en Paris.





La permission
Selon le système des prisons semi-ouvertes, en Turquie, cinq condamnés de droit commun ont droit à une permission. Ayant perdu ses papiers, Yusuf est arrêté en route. Mevlüt rejoint sa fiancée, mais il n'a pas le droit de sortir avec elle sans la surveillance de deux chaperons en robes et voiles noirs. Mehmet Salih, auquel on reproche d'avoir laissé mourir son beau-frère au cours d'un hold-up, doit arracher sa femme et ses deux enfants à sa belle-famille. L'épouse adultère de Seyit est, depuis huit mois, enchaînée dans une cave. Omer va vivre le drame de son village kurde.

Incarcéré par la dictature militaire turque, Yilmaz Güney écrivait ses films derrière les barreaux, et en dirigeait, de sa prison, la réalisation confiée à ses assistants. Pour Yol, il avait reçu une autorisation de tournage sur la présentation d'un scénario édulcoré, et le film fut entièrement mis en scène en Turquie par Serif Gören. Mais Güney réussit à s'évader, trouva asile en Suisse, où il assura le montage de Yol (le matériel était sorti du pays) pour le Festival de Cannes 1982, où le film reçut la Palme d'or. Sommet de l'oeuvre de Güney, Yol témoigne du sort terrible fait aux humains par une société où l'héritage de traditions barbares s'ajoute aux chaînes de l'oppression politique. Les rapports avec les familles sont aussi aliénants que la prison. Un film exceptionnel. (Jacques Siclier - Télérama)





Дорога
Резкий портрет Турции, ее людей и ее правительства, показанный через истории пяти заключенных, которым на неделю разрешили навестить дом, и проблемы, с которыми они сталкиваются во внешнем мире.

Merci de me donner l'occasion de revoir ce film, et pour la qualité du rip. Thanks also to share multiple subtitles for each film, even inside the same family (with members from different cultures), it's sometimes precious to get.
