 'YOL,' A BIG, ANGRY EPIC OF CONTEMPORY TURKEY - New York Times
YILMAZ GUNEY'S ''Yol,'' which will be shown at the New York Film Festival at Lincoln Center today at 9:30 P.M. and tomorrow at 6:15 P.M. is a big, angry epic of contemporary Turkey, a film whose political and ethnic concerns are likely to be equated -wrongly - with cinematic achievement.
''Yol'' is a large, decent, ponderous panorama of a movie about five prisoners in one of Turkey's ''open'' prisons - this one on the island of Imrali in the Sea of Marmara - who receive one-week passes to visit their families in eastern Turkey.
YOL, directed by Serif Goren and Yilmaz Guney; screenplay (Turkish with English subtitles) by Mr.

 Rambles: Sevara Nazarkhan, Yol Bolsin   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Yol Bolsin is a stark and compelling contrast to 99 percent of the popular music being made today; Nazarkhan is indeed a weaver of spells.
Yol Bolsin is certainly not a Buddha Bar wannabe record, nor does it have any relation to the monotonous rhythms of any of the typical Asian underground records that have been released in recent years.
The music of Yol Bolsin with its hypnotic serpentine pulsation and Old World instrumentation is like an open window into the lost age of Bukhara and Samarkand; those long-lost mystical places along the Silk Road that beckoned travelers like Marco Polo to come and warm by the fire.

 "Nueva Yol" definition from Double-Tongued Dictionary   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
The "yol" is due to a clipped final consonant, characteristic of Caribbean Spanish.
In most dialects of Spanish, the "V" and "B" are both pronounced as a voiced labiodental plosive, sometimes resulting in the common spelling or transcription nueba for nueva 'new' (also seen in the variable spelling of Havana/Habana).
Historically, New York, or “Nueba Yol” as it is rendered in Dominican Spanish, has represented the United States for Dominicans.

 Nueba Yol
nderneath its sugar coating, "Nueba Yol," a comic fable about a young Dominican widower who visits New York City and discovers it is not the paradise paved in dollar bills that he had imagined, offers a fairly hardheaded dose of urban reality.
To its credit, "Nueba Yol" (Dominican slang for New York), is neither a downbeat story about an innocent dreamer consumed by the plagues of poverty and drugs nor a rags-to-riches fantasy.
For all the dangers and obstacles it throws in his path, "Nueba Yol" shares Balbuena's faith in the kindness of most strangers (except for drug dealers).

 Yilmaz Guney and Serif Goren
Now issued a temporary permit to return home, he vows to redress the shame of his wife's infidelity and restore honor to both families.
Realized on film by Yilmaz Güney's assistant director Serif Gören based on the screenplay by - and technical direction of - imprisoned political prisoner, author, actor, and filmmaker Güney, Yol is an elegantly spare, haunting, and socially relevant portrait of repression, tyranny, isolation, and inhumanity.
Moreover, through repeated episodes of martial law curfews, random check points and inspections, and civilian searches, Güney draws an implicit parallel in the paradoxical status of the conditionally liberated prisoners with the broader depiction of curtailed personal freedom among the general population under the nation's military rule.

 Barnes & Noble.com - Music: Yol Bolsin, Sevara Nazarkhan, CD
Anchored by her darting, fluttering, Islamic-inflected vocals and the arid plucking of the doutar, a 15th-century lute, Yol Bolsin is produced with ethereal chill by Hector Zazou, who brought a similar M.O. to albums by Tibet's Yungchen Lhamo and his own Songs from the Cold Seas.
But the cinematic gorgeousness of even the most sweeping tracks, such as the string-laden "Galdir," is a welcome, mature alternative to most other East-West fusion in its reliance on dance beats and raps.
The Dick Dale–styled doutar-slinging of Toir Kuziyev lends far more flavor, especially on tracks such as "Moghulchai Navo" and "Orik Gullaganda." Yol Bolsin is hip enough to entrance the lounge crowd, but when Zazou allows Nazarkhan to weave her spell with minimal intrusion, the exotic perfumes of this music are at their most potent.

In Yol Bolsin, she takes folk, peasant and Sufi songs and, with producer Hector Zazou, mixes Western instrumentation and production values with the traditional.
It is followed by Yol Bolsin (Where Are You Going), one of the strongest songs on the album, and another example of a successful fusion of Western and Eastern in which the latter still manages to shine.

With samples, electric guitars and keyboards Yol Bolsin didn’t fully begin to flower until record producer Hector Zazou, from France, immersed himself in the tastes and smells of contemporary Uzbekistan.
Sevara jokes that she forced Zazou to eat, drink, and dress Uzbeki — and always central to this experience is pure tradition.
Yet Yol Bolsin remains outside time and essentially Central Asian.
