Synopsis : Ismet is a Turkish soldier, who was on duty at the border as a Commander of the Coast Guard and recently got retired. Now as a civilian, he struggles to communicate with his family and people surrounding him. His only son abandoned him and left to the U.S. And now his wife wants to join her son, too. After suddenly becoming neighbors with two Syrian refugees (Omar and Mariye) at his house near the Turkish-Greek border and the humane experience he has to live through, he now has to face his prejudices and his political view. Ps: Omar and Us has a good production story to tell; Professional actors Taj Sher Yakub (Omar) and Hala Alsayasneh (Mariye) starring in this movie are two Syrian refugees who live in Turkey under temporary immigration status. *France Imigration office accepted Hala Alsayasneh (Mariye) as an “artist immigrant” ; starting from 11 March she continues her life in Paris. we think even this is a film story by itself ; “An actress cross borders with her art.”
