The fifth of twelve chapters of a DVD I produced from footage I took of a wedding in the South East of Turkey. The wedding took place in the town of Batman, where I was invited to stay with my friend's family. I'm very grateful to the Sonmezsoy family for their warm hospitality and letting me film in such intimate settings.
This chapter of the video begins with the women making henna and then dancing in the street for the first night of wedding celebrations.
