A Fine Day

DER SCHÖNE TAG is the third part of Thomas Arslan's "Berlin Trilogy," which includes the films GESCHWISTER - KARDEŞLER (1997) and DEALER (1998). "In THE BEAUTIFUL DAY, the character of Deniz may not be representative of an entire population group in its entirety, but in one respect she certainly stands for the experiences of many others her age: She has something else to do besides constantly obsessing about her identity. It was important to me not to define her in terms of what is supposedly 'foreign' about her." (Thomas Arslan)
