Tar

Focusing on the cedar tar extracted from ancient trees along the steep slopes of the Taurus Mountains and the harsh struggle between man and nature, the film portrays a challenging journey from gathering pitch pines to traditional kilns enduring days of fire. Dripping through sleepless nights, stained faces and thick smoke, this medicinal liquid symbolizes not only an ancient production technique, but also the patience and toil of the last practitioners of a disappearing craft.
