The Last Birds of Passage

Gulsum, the authoritarian matriarch of the Aksak Family that belongs to the Sarikecili Yoruks has started to prepare for summer migration. However, members of her family don’t share Gulsum’s
ideas. Her husband states that he is too old to migrate and wants to settle, her son-in law wants to sell the camels and migrate using the tractor. Gulsum believes that migration should be made in the traditional way with camels. A rumor that the governor’s office will ban migration begins to spread. Gulsum is determined to migrate in spite of all the obstacles she is faced with.
