Zugzwang
2025, Turkish. Directed by Muhammed Günaydın.
Selim and Muazzez are a happily married couple who infuse every moment of their lives with joy by turning situations into games and competitions without ever compromising their love and respect for each other.

During their months-long period of ambiguous separation, Selim discovers his kidneys have failed.
