All-In

At the start of the summer season, Ismail and Hakan are preparing for their new jobs in a gigantic, all-inclusive hotel on the Turkish Riviera. They observe the colourful swimsuits, the unemptied plates, the different ways of addressing other people, and gradually discover new opportunities to move ahead in life. ALL-IN documents their loss of innocence against the backdrop of a fading European dream. Initial kindness turns into indifference as Ismail and Hakan's initiation into the absurd world of Western tourism soon leads them to ask: which dreams are really worth aspiring to? (Flanders Image)
