You don't sleep for him to sleep.

You will die, so he does not!

You won't just die asleep.

If you sleep, you die.

You all die! If you sleep, you die.

If you sleep, you die. You too.

You guys all die.

You die, if you fall asleep, lieutenant.

If you fall asleep everybody dies!

Look. We are strong, brave and ready.

Ready for what?

To die in our sleep?

You will not sleep! You will not eat!

You will not rest!

I will not send your corpses,

your coffins...

...to your families!

I forbid you to die.

Understood, soldier?

- Yes, sir!

I forgive your friend,

to preserve order in the unit.

I forgive him, so you can stand guard

side by side till mornings.

But if I ever, if I ever see

you make a mistake

I'll shoot you with my own hand. I swear.

And I'll sign the papers, a training accident.

Understood, soldier?

- Yes sir!

What is the matter with this flag?

Sir, wind here is just too strong.

Keeps tearing them apart. All flags are the same.

We brought a new one. Change it.

Yes sir.

How are the boys doing?

Doing fine sir, they'll get over the shock.

Every single one of these boys

is different.

Their hands, faces, their loves

and fears are different.

You don't notice them.

They don't even know why you can't.

They all come here for you.

To become your heroes.

They run but they don't know why.

We make 'em run so that walking will be easier.

All their longings are here, their

sadness. Even their home is here.

This is their homeland.

One goal makes them forget everything.

They celebrate it like they're fighting.

They dance. But not like sissies.

They are men.

They laugh.

What the f*** is going on in here?

- A grenade went off.

I was just coming from sentry watch, captain.

I tried to adjust the pin to the grenade.

It slipped out of my hand.

So I threw it in the toilet.

Why the hell is the grenade in the toilet

and the pin is in your hand? Why the hell?

They make mistakes, but never lie.

- Have you ever been in love?

A long time ago.

- You're not in love right now?

They fall in love.

- While I am on night watch here

...you light my nights like moonlight...

- If you write poems, you'll fall in love.

When you emboss my dreams,

I can't sleep in these mountains

They express their feelings

through poems.

You need to be able to express

your feelings.

One of you is a Kurd, the other a painter

and the third a poet.

I'm a Kurd too!

- Me too.

And you are the guys to watch my back?

They come from the most

different places.

Tunceli, Eskisehir. Adana, Istanbul...

They don't understand each

other. Here they learn to understand.

Enjoy your meal, guys!

- Thank you.

Code name Doctor, real name Riza.

An unexpected enemy approaches them.

Doctor was a student in Hacettepe Med School...

That's all guys. We're leaving at 6 am.

Get some rest now. We depend on you.

They leave to face the enemy.

- Tomorrow, we leave for duty

(Snow falls down silently)

- Where are we heading sir?

- You'll see, when we get there

(What happens to the commando?)

(Tonight we see action)

(Shoot, shoot, mountain commando!)

(Shoot, shoot, mountain commando!)

They get graded with their wounds.

hospital care.

- It's urgent.

Right. 4 - We may loose the patient.

They are curious about their fate.

Would we treat a wounded terrorist?

- Of course we will.

I want to join you in the mountain campaign.

Nobody cares about me back home.

What am I supposed to tell them

when I get back home?

I'm a good-for-nothing. That's

what my dad keeps telling.

Do me this favor, sir. Let me come.

(You need to be brave to become a commando)

This mountain will make a man

out of me, sir. - Take him with you.

God is almighty.

Troops, wake up. Get up!

Look, he's still sleeping! Get up!

(Pull the pin)

(Throw the grenade)

They leave their warm beds and

start their march to the mountains

(Snow on my head)

(Winds are wild)

(Lowlands become too narrow)

(My country)

(are the mountains)

(are the mountains)

Fate looks down for a hero

and finds him...

Orhan!

I wrote the report, Mr. District Attorney.

Here are the details.

Ok, let's type it.

Below the shoulder, left and right side,

there's a bullet hole, circ. 3 cm.

Be careful, Mr. District Attorney.

It's slippery here.

These boys keep walking,

No matter what.

These boys carry their hearts

in their hands.

As they walk closer to the peak,

they get further away from you.

They don't understand you any more.

You don't understand them either.

Who's up there?

- They are cleaning the roof sir.

Did you see Orhans new car?

- No.

He was crazy about it.

- I know.

He didn't get the chance to drive it.

Life sucks.

Come in.

- You're wife's on the line sir.

Hello?

I hear you. How are you?

- I'm fine, fine. How bout you?

Do you know when you'll be coming back?

Even if I knew, I couldn't tell you.

- I know.

I just wanted to know whether you know a date or not.

- I don't know.

Please take good care of yourself.

- Of course, darling.

Commander, tell your wife, waiting is

useless. She won't see you again.

Zeynep, hang up there is an interference.

- I don't understand?

The line is no good, hang up.

I'll call later. Hang up.

Speak, while you still can, Kaya.

Still here a**hole?

What's up?

So your commander Tuna won't let

you leave the station, eh?

Don't be such a p*ssy!

Why don't you act like a man?

Instead of living like a wild pigs

in the mountains.

You should have graduated from

the university and went back to ...

Your cheap propaganda slogans

won't work, commander.

So Am I wrong?

Instead of going to your university,

I rather hang out in my mountains you a**hole.

Why so angry, Doctor? We're just

having a nice chat.

No worries, captain.

Eventually, you will die like an animal.

Wolves and vultures will feast

on your corpse.

Screw you, captain.

- Screw you too, pig.

Those who didn't sign their last

will... - Here Cemil,

and Dogukan, Polat too.

Ibrahim, Resul and you.

Muharrem. - I did sign it,

Sergeant. - What? - I signed it

Write it down guys. In the case of my death...

God Forbid.

...I pass on my individual rights...

What are individual rights sir?

- Well, the rights you own with your personality.

You re currently being soldiers so it must soldier rights?

Which means?

- To make it short:

If we die a martyr, the government

will pay reparation. - How much?

I guess a lot. I don't know

- Dogukan whose name will you write?

I've got no one to write here.

Whose name did you write?

My mom. - I have a mom but

my father takes away her stuff.

Then I'll write my mother's name

in my last will.

Whatever, then write your father's name

down. Make sure there's a name in there.

So we're all settled? If anybody wants to

donate organs, write that down too.

Organ donation?

- Yes, donation Ibo.

How's that supposed to work?

Is that an order? - Not an order.

No, I won't donate nothing.

That just won't work.

Why not?

- Won't my heart die when I die?
