Beautiful cinematography and a wonderful central performance from Bora Atlas as the young Yusuf, make HONEY a worthy winner and a film that deserves to be seen by the widest audience in the UK.
The Jury additionally gave a Special Mention to Seren Yuce's MAJORITY as a film that, though particular to Turkey, transcends national boundaries.
