A sixteen-year-old boy gets wrapped in plastic, and lowered into a tank truck full of crude oil. That’s how Hisham Zaman’s long awaited feature film debut begins. "Before Snowfall" is an untraditional roadmovie about family, love, dignity and honor. Siyar is the eldest man in the family. When his sister escapes from her own wedding, he’s given the task to track her down and restore the family’s reputation. The hunt after his sister becomes a dangerous journey from east to west, where the collision of traditional bound cultures and modern western living challenges Siyar to find out who he really is. In Istanbul he meets the young girl Evin, who’s also lost between borders in Europe. They experience a budding friendship and an infatuation. Evin chooses to travel with him, unknowingly of his plan.
