It is 1975, a perfect spring in Istanbul. Kemal, scion of one of the city's wealthiest families, is about to become engaged to Sibel, daughter of another prominent family, when he encounters Fusun, a beautiful shopgirl and a distant relation. Thus begins an obsessive but tragic love affair that will transform itself into a compulsive collection of objects, a museum of one man's broken heart, that chronicles Kemal's lovelorn progress and his afflicted heart's reactions.
Very postmodern (kind of drags at times, meandering and all over the place) but really beautiful storytelling about love and obsession and (to some extent) social change - need to visit museum in Istanbul.
