Jîn deals with general themes such as war, masculine ideology and militarism from the perspective of a Kurdish female guerilla, one of the key actors of the war in the Kurdish region – a rare example in Turkish cinema! The universal themes that make up the film are processed through war and the figure of the female guerrilla, drawing the narrative from a humanist and Romantic transparency of universality to a burning, dark reality rooted in locality.
