Come on, Bekir, hang in there.

Loser... I guess, have to, maybe,

these words are too much.

It hurts. I am exhausted.

I'm hungry!

Take it easy.

We've come all this way.

There isn't much left. Come on.

Alright, we'll sit a few minutes.

I wonder if I should eat some snow.

What?

I'd feel less h...

Bekir! F***! Bekir!

Are you alright?

- What's going on?

- Are you alright?

He's there.

The sniper is

at the Wolf's Tooth.

- What's going on?

- Come on, Bekir, come on!

Come on, come on!

A little more, come on!

Come on!

F***!

Son of a b*tch!

I know nothing

about medicine, Bekir.

But I know you'll pass out if you

lose too much blood. We have to go.

Where, man?! Where?

He's at the Wolf's Tooth.

These fags are all over the place.

Come on, Bekir, come on!

It's burning, my whole

leg is burning.

Enough. Leave me, really

leave me this time. Save yourself.

Bekir, f***! I know

this is a shitty situation.

Come on, I know it hurts

but do it for me. Come on, Bekir!

- Come on, come on.

- Ahh!

Ouz!

So, did you like the joke?

Unfortunately, yes, sir.

I know, you're an educated boy.

Your parents didn't raise you

so you'd fight in the mountains.

Whose parents would do that, sir?

You have a point.

You studied history.

So you should understand

certain things with that maturity.

So let's not lie to each other.

Yes, sir.

This is a dangerous place Ouz.

When I fall asleep at night,

just before, I always wake up

once and look around.

I'm human, too,

I get scared, too.

The sergeant majors, too.

The only soldier without fear

is a fallen soldier.

The point is,

to ignore your fear

for the sake of the mission,

that's real heroism.

I have this talk one-to-one with

each soldier who comes here.

The jokes are different but the

things I say are the same.

You didn't come here to be bored.

You have a mission.

To survive.

To survive and to keep

those around you alive.

Because this mountain will be ours

as long as we are alive.

- Not when we're dead.

- Ouz!

Ouz!

Ouz!

You've wasted a lot of bullets,

you useless bastard!

Don't get up. Take cover!

Are you playing games, you dog?

Shame on you! I'm limping,

aren't you ashamed?!

I've been thrashing here for two

hours. You f***ing son of a b*tch!

That's better!

Little more,

a little more to the right!

Ouz, don't get up, I tell you!

You are almost there, come on.

Ouz, what are you doing?

Hold your breath!

Don't let your hand shake,

come on! Hold your breath!

Ouz, get down!

What kind of a sniper are you?

Ouz, no!

One dies,

thousands resurrect!

It's me, Sergeant Ouz,

First Lieutenant Turul!

Sir!

Ouz, answer me.

Ouz, what the hell did you do?

Sir!

Ouz, answer me!

Answer me already!

You are the craziest guy

to ever have come here.

Come on, open your eyes.

Sir.

Sir.

He is alive.

You can't go anywhere.

You're here, you're here. I...

Ouz, Ouz!

- You're Bekir, right?

- Yes, sir!

Listen to me, this is going to hurt.

Sir.

It's hurt...

Bekir.

I'll take care of your friend.

Don't loosen the knot.

No matter what, no matter

how much it hurts,

don't untie it, you understand?

Sergeant Ouz!

- Ouz!

- My...

Listen to me, my boy.

You're in shock.

You're losing a lot of blood.

- Sir. It's very strange.

- Talk.

What is strange? Tell me.

Dying.

What are you talking about?

Nobody's dying. Forget that.

There is no dying.

While we live, we keep

thinking about the past.

Memories, mistakes...

We only understand the value

of the present as we die.

Think, how wonderful it would be...

- What?

- If you could live being aware of that.

Hamburger... What?

What hamburger?

Ouz. Ouz.

Open your eyes! Ouz! Look at me!

Crimea! Come in!

This is Wolf's Tooth.

I've reached the boys!

Both are wounded. Come quick!

Copy that, Wolf's Tooth. Crimea is

secure. I repeat, Crimea is secure.

Copy that, Saint.

Little Bird is on the way.

I'll remember this.

What?

That you ate with me before I left,

a hamburger.

I used to when I was little.

Then I stopped eating red meat.

Thank you.

Are you practicing for tomorrow?

I'm serious.

You're kind of sending me off.

You didn't have to come.

I did so you wouldn't

call me from there.

No. I'd be the first to make fun of

myself if I did. Don't worry.

When you get back, give me a ring,

we'll have burgers again.

If I survive.

If you survive.

Glad you're feeling better,

Sergeant Ouz.

I am First Lieutenant Turul Tmen.

- Sir...

- Don't talk, don't tire yourself.

We've talked to your family,

they'll be here in the evening.

They put a pin in your shoulder.

You'll beep in shopping

malls all your life.

Other than that,

you're fit as a fiddle.

Keep jacking off.

Sir, Bekir?

He's fine, too.

The bullet shattered the bone

but missed the artery.

They operated on him

and saved his leg.

He'll walk but he'll have a limp.

If it weren't for you...

Sorry, I barely made it.

I saw what you did, too.

It was very brave.

I wanted to keep you company

and talk to you before I leave.

Where to, sir?

The mountain.

What?

I'll never eat another

wafer as long as I live.

Don't say that. If they heard you

they'd put us in a commercial.

We survived on the mountain

thanks to those wafers.

And got diarrhea in the hospital.

They say I'll limp.

Don't worry, Tamerlan also limped.

Who?

Forget about it.

Don't start again with

Mongolians, Lithuania, and stuff.

Legnica.

Hope your family gets here

soon and takes you away.

- Too late.

- Why is that?

They're your family, too.

Remember, once I asked

you to change the channel,

you almost beat me up?

It was dawn and stuff, why

would I change the channel?

Now get up and find me

Turgut from Ankara. Come on.

You're not serious?

Come on. Your military

service is not over yet.

You can get your way in

civilian life, but this is the army.

I'm going to my room.

I can't put up

with your whims, Bekir.

- Stay a little more?

- Do you want more painkiller?

Shall I turn it up?

Go ahead then.

I didn't die on the mountain,

but you may yet kill me.

They hooked you up to vodka.

I wish!

Did you see that nurse?

She has beautiful b*obs.

- You seem to be in a better mood.

- Of course I am. You said 'b*obs'.

You force us to

listen to this shitty music.

Get out of here then, you bastard.

Put on a film or the news for once.

You're so hollow and superficial!

You seem hungry for a beating again.

Just because no one else protests,

do you think you

decide around here now?

Bekir! Ouz!

Lieutenant Yaar wants you.

F*** off.

Don't go if you dare, you fag.

- Why is he calling me?

- Both of you.

He's sending you to the mountain

with Sergeant Major Kemal.

There is a light on the

great mountain

Thinking about you,

in love with you

Your wheat skin, your tangled hair

My love, my kind, I say

I have the heart of a scarlet

That's just me

I'm leaving now, you cry now

Burn and cry, turn and cry

I'm leaving now, you cry now
