Lazy afternoon with nothing to do? Why not watch the film: Five Minatets in New York ( released as Act of Vengeance in the US and The Terrorist in Australia) It is is a Turkish action film written and directed by Mahsun Kırmızıgül,( a Kurdish writer) which follows two Turkish police officers sent to New York City to bring back a terrorist suspect. The film follows two anti-terror officers from Istanbul, sent to New York to find and bring back a Turkish religious leader, codenamed Dajjal, who was arrested in the United States and who will be delivered to Turkish authorities by the FBI. The film focuses on Islamophobia in Turkey and the United States after September 11 attacks, seeking to answer the question of whether innocence or guilt even matters to one who lusts for vengeance. The film, which went on nationwide general release across Turkey on November 5, 2010, was one of the highest-grossing Turkish films of 2010. The title comes from the popular Turkish folk song, Five Minarets in Bitlis (Turkish: Bitliste Beş Minare).
