As I write this, I'm screening the turkish film Valley of the Wolves - Iraq, a controversial account of what happened after 11 Turkish soldiers were abducted by American troops near the Iraqi border. The abduction as such actually occured; what happens later in the film probably falls under an artistic license of some sort.
Be as it may, the Americans are supposedly less than happy about the film while Turks line up for seeing the movie, the most-seen film in Turkey, ever. At least, this is what I've been told by the enthusiastic Turks in the audience tonight.
I love controversial stuff, and the film appears to deliver more than its share of that. Unfortunately, a Swedish premiere isn't more likely than an American one...
