Threethousand Years of Longing

In the organizer's words:

Alithea Binnie is in Istanbul for a conference. She buys a small bottle for herself at a bazaar. When she cleans it at the hotel, a djinni springs from it and immediately offers her three wishes in exchange for his freedom. As a storyteller, Alithea knows that such deals never end well and gratefully declines. But the djinni doesn't let up and tells her about his 3,000-year-old life and adventures in order to elicit her wishes, which end up surprising both of them. This film playfully transcends genre boundaries. It is a spiritual fairy tale, fantasy and love story all rolled into one and intoxicates with its images and outstanding actors.
