‘Houses with small windows’ is a powerful and yet muted portrait of an honour killing in the rural Kurdish Southeast of Turkey. 22-year old Dilan pays for her forbidden love for a young man in a neighbouring village with her life. She has shamed the family and therefore must die at the hands of her own brothers. And as tradition will have it, the killing must be compensated.
Born in 1975 in Baglarbasi, Turkey. Bülent Öztürk lives since 1995 in Antwerp (Belgium). In 2007 Bülent starts film studies at the Belgian filmschool Rits in Brussels.
