South eastern Turkey, 1974. A time when government officers bring TV to the region for the first time. Some say this 'gadget' will make distances closer, some say it is an invention of devils. But more important than all is that no-one has a clue on how to make it work.

Team up a handsome 23-year-old with a penchant for personal ads, his opera-diva mother [Dianne Wiest at her glorious best], her impeccably coutured director and friend [the splendid Bulle Ogier], an enigmatically odd actress [the intriguingly skittish Jane Birkin], a few rent boys and Vanessa Redgrave. Add a good dose of narcissism, a little murder and a lost father.

Mix witha great eye for visuals [Paris as a backdrop], a wonderful soundtrack [from pop to Turandot] and a whimsical homage to film and celebrity. Include a plot reminiscent of Agatha Christie at her best, and you have the marvellous Merci Docteur Rey.

Executive Producer Ismail Merchant has a great instinct for talent and brings together some of the best for Andrew Litvack's debut feature. For his part, Litvack proves worthy of his mentor's heritage in this hilarious and a moral tale.
