Mustang is a 2015 drama film co-written and directed by Deniz Gamze Ergüven in her feature debut. Set at an unspecified time in the 2010s in a remote Turkish village, Mustang depicts the lives of five young orphaned sisters and the challenges they face growing up with extended family as girls in a conservative society. Mustang is an international co-production of France, Germany and Turkey.
Lale, the youngest of five sisters, bids farewell at school to her teacher, who is moving to Istanbul. The sisters decide to walk home instead of taking a van. Along the way, they play a game of "chicken fight" at the beach with their male classmates. At home, their grandmother hits them for having bodily contact with boys and thus "pleasuring themselves" with them. Their uncle Erol is equally furious. From then on, the girls are forbidden from leaving the house.
They feel stifled as their grandmother tries to make them suitable for marriage. When in public, they must now dress in drab, conservative clothing. Instead of attending school, they must stay home and learn how to cook, clean, and sew from their female relatives. Even so, the oldest sister, Sonay, sneaks out occasionally to meet her lover.
Lale, who loves football, is forbidden from attending Trabzonspor matches. She resolves to go to a match from which men have been banned due to hooliganism. She learns that the girls in the village are going together on a bus. The sisters, who are happy for an opportunity to leave the house, sneak out with Lale. After missing the bus, they hitch a ride with a passing truck driver, Yasin, who helps them catch up to it. They are ecstatic in the atmosphere of the all-female crowd cheering for their team. Back home, their aunt sees them at the match on TV just as their uncle and other village men are about to tune in. To prevent them from finding out, she cuts the house's and then the whole village's electricity.
When the girls return, their grandmother decides to start marrying the sisters off in order to get them settled. They are taken to town, ostensibly "to get lemonade," to show them off to potential suitors. Soon enough, a suitor appears. Sonay vows to marry only her lover and refuses to meet the prospective suitor and his family. Selma is sent instead and becomes engaged. Sonay gets engaged a short while later to her lover. At the two sisters' joint wedding, Sonay is happy while Selma is not. On the night of her wedding, Selma's in-laws come to view the bedsheets in a traditional ritual to establish that Selma was a virgin before her wedding night. Because there is no blood on the sheet, her in-laws take her to a physician to have her virginity tested.
Next in line for marriage is Ece, who is being sexually abused at night by her uncle, Erol. When the three remaining girls stop with Erol near a bank, Ece allows a boy to have sexual contact with her in the car. She makes jokes at the lunch table, causing loud laughs from her sisters, and is told to go to her room. There, she commits suicide. Her whole family attends the funeral.
The two youngest sisters, Nur and Lale, remain trapped in their home. Lale continues to sneak out. On one attempt to walk to Istanbul alone, she encounters Yasin, the truck driver, who is kind to her. At Lale's request, he teaches her how to drive. When she is caught on the way back into the house, her family reinforces their efforts to make it impossible for the girls to leave.
Erol starts abusing Nur in place of Ece, and her grandmother knows about it. She says that now it is time for Nur to be married off. Despite being young, she is found a suitor and engaged to be married. On the night of the ceremony, Lale convinces her to resist, and the girls bar themselves inside the house while the wedding party is outside, much to the embarrassment of their family. As the party disperses, Erol tries to get inside.
Lale finds a phone hidden in a cupboard and plugs it in to call Yasin for help. The girls gather up money and a few supplies, grab the uncle's car keys, and sneak out of the house. They manage to escape but crash the car close to their house. Yasin later picks them up and takes them to a bus station. The girls take the bus to Istanbul and find their former teacher, who greets them warmly.
There she met Alice Winocour, who was pitching her film, Augustine.[10] She subsequently put Kings on hold and wrote Mustang with Winocour over the summer of 2012.[11] The event of girls being reprimanded for sitting on boys' shoulders, as depicted early in the film, was based on Ergüven's own experience as a teenager.[12][10]
Of the five girls who played the main sisters, only Elit İşcan had acted before. Ergüven wrote her role, Ece, with İşcan in mind.[13] Tuğba Sunguroğlu was discovered and recruited by Ergüven at the baggage claim of Charles de Gaulle Airport after a flight from Istanbul to Paris.[11] The other three, Güneş Şensoy, Doğa Doğuşlu, and İlayda Akdoğan, were cast through audition among hundreds.[10]
The film was a co-production between France, Germany, and Turkey, with a budget of €1.4 million.[14][11][12] Weeks before shooting was scheduled to begin, a leading French producer pulled out of the film.[11] She cited a shortage of funds as the main reason, and Ergüven's pregnancy, which the director had discovered a week before.[12] A few days later, Charles Gillibert came on board as producer.[12]
The film was shot in and around the Black Sea coastal town of İnebolu, 600 kilometers from Istanbul.[10] The football scene was acted at an actual match, which no adult men were allowed to attend so that women might see it. The filmmakers were denied filming the match at the last minute, so they used images from the station that televised the match. They had told station personnel about the problem.[15]
The film's score was Warren Ellis's first to compose by himself. Ergüven approached Ellis, who initially turned it down due to a busy schedule, but was eventually persuaded.[16]
Mustang has received widespread acclaim from critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a rating of 97%, based on 156 reviews, with an average rating of 8.14/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "Mustang delivers a bracing — and thoroughly timely — message whose power is further bolstered by the efforts of a stellar ensemble cast."[18]Metacritic reports a score of 83 out of 100, based on 29 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".[19]
For Variety, Jay Weissberg compared it to The Virgin Suicides. He criticized the voiceover narration as redundant while praising the direction of performances.[20]IndieWire critic Jessica Kiang gave it a B, as "less a cultural critique, and more a bittersweet, often angry lament for childhoods ended before childhood has actually ended".[21]Screen Daily's Tim Grierson found difficulty distinguishing among the sister characters but enjoyed their unity.[22]Richard Brody wrote that Ergüven "gets appealing and fiercely committed performances from the five young actresses at the story’s center, but above all she effectively stokes righteous anger at a situation that admits no clear remedy other than mere escape".[23]
In The Daily Telegraph, Tristram Fane Saunders awarded the film four stars and identified its voice as "fierce, confident and rebellious".[24]The Guardian's Wendy Ide gave it five stars, citing it for "rebellious spirit".[25]Ty Burr called it "an excellent first film" that condemns the treatment of women in Anatolia villages.[26]
In Turkey, the reaction to Mustang was polarized. While critics such as Atilla Dorsay praised the film, it was criticized as depicting Turkish culture in inaccurate or orientalist ways.[27][11][28]

Science of determining the age of rocks, sediments and fossils An artistic depiction of the major events in the history of Earth Geochronology is the science of determining the age of rocks, fossils, and sediments using signatures inherent in the rocks themselves. Absolute geochronology can be accomplished through radioactive isotopes, whereas relative geochronology is provided by tools such as paleomagnetism and stable isotope ratios. By combining multiple geochronological (and biostratigrap...
