Snow

Kadife agrees to cooperate with the plan for Blue’s release on the condition that Blue is released before she removes her headscarf onstage. Sunay Zaim and Colonel Osman Nuri Colak reluctantly agree to release Blue first. Sunay Zaim dictates the next day’s front-page article for the Border City Gazette to Serdar Bey. The article states that Kadife will shoot Sunay Zaim onstage during the play.

Ka and İpek make plans for their life in Frankfurt. The snow is beginning to thaw, and the roads in and out of Kars will open that evening. Funda Eser, an actress in Sunay Zaim’s theater company and Sunay’s wife, meets with Kadife at the hotel to rehearse for the play. Turgut Bey appears, having learned that Kadife plans to remove her headscarf and worried about her safety; he argues with Funda in the hotel dining room as İpek watches television and Ka watches İpek.

Fazıl interrupts the group and tells Ka that Blue wants to meet with Ka again. Ka is taken to Blue’s new hiding place, where he tells Ka that he’s changed his mind and does not want Kadife to uncover her head in the play.
