Anima

I only remember fragments of memories, dreams, and feelings from my past life.

Most of them are of life and death,

I couldn't understand back then.

Dear spectators: this time, Samanyolu attacks its opponent, Lodos,

from the right side. The camels are trying to leave.

Crazy Akın from Germencik! Ha run from Harmandağ!

These camels are expected on the field.

After Crazy Akın and Harun's game

for the trophy...

Akın the Ruler vs. Yağız the Legendary Swashbuckler, Number One vs. Bozkurt…

Gezer the Little vs. Göktuğ Pasha, Goshawk vs. The Revenant 09,

Omur the Ruler vs. Anafarta the Turkish Soldier

they're all ready for the final game.

Both camels start the fight at a fast pace.

After locking their necks, the camels rest for a moment.

Göktuğ Pasha is locked to his opponent once again;

he tries to beat him but fails.

Meanwhile, Gezer the Little strengthens his hold.

He makes another move.

Referees, be careful.

The director of Seferihisar Geothermal Inc.

…dear Tayfun İlhan has just joined us; we welcome him.

Göktuğ Pasha recovers himself in the meantime.

Now he makes a move, trying to free himself from the hold.

Fellas!

Stop the wrestling, fellas.

Stop the wrestling!

Dear police officers.

Akın!

Break up the wrestling, pals.

Break up the fight.

This is not human wrestling!

Shame on you!

What a lack of manners!

Break up those camels first! Make them wait.

Camel Sausages.

The camels are coming.

Yes, the second competitor is 07 Quaresma from Selçuk.

Turn him around on his own axis.

Dear jury members, please vote for each camel from one to 10.

Okay.

Sürmelim is selected as the fanciest camel. Congratulations.

Thank you, Mrs. Mayor.

Congratulations.

Dear press members, camels are slaughtered in Australia: exterminated, killed...

As is demonstrated here, we place a lot of importance in them.

I kindly urge you to notice this fact.

I remember going to the village on a lovely, sunny day.

While my mother and the other women were doing the house chores;

as men of the family, we were onto something I didn't understand entirely.

I helped my father dig a small hole.

I learned how to hold the shovel, dig the earth,

and throw away the soil. I learned these things.

Then, a few other men brought a cow behind a small truck.

Welcome, welcome, welcome!

Take your pick — 1000 Lira!

Come on boy, come on boy, come on!

Move away, mate!

Mankind, mankind.

On the days of greater Eid, you can't find a better job,

there is no better religious service than sacrificing an animal.
