What happens in Climates from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 12 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 1-minute read.
Spoilers ahead
The film opens during a summer holiday in Kaş, where a couple’s conversations have drifted into silence. İsa, a university lecturer, passes his days taking photographs of ancient monuments for a thesis that remains unfinished, while Bahar watches from the sidelines. On the sun-soaked beach Bahar dozes and dreams that he is smothering her in sand, a troubling image that foreshadows the fragility of their trust.
After Bahar swims, İsa runs through his prepared speech and then reveals a difficult truth: he wants to break up. On the ride back to the city on a motorbike, Bahar unexpectedly covers his eyes with her hands, triggering a crash that leaves them uninjured but shaken. They part ways, and Bahar makes it clear that she does not want him to call.
