The Turkish baths sequence, as well as the bath scene, are very well done, especially in this film. It is also a very good example, of how Turkish films are made, not only in Turkey, but also in other countries.

The Turkish baths sequence, which I have seen in other films, has a great deal of nudity, especially in one scene where the Turkish woman is being raped by a man, who is in his bathrobe. It is a scene that is very disturbing, as it shows the woman being sexually assaulted by the man. But it also shows that the rapist is the one who raped the girl, not the other way around. And the scene in which the rape happens is quite disturbing. I think that this is one of the most disturbing scenes in Turkish cinema, because it has the same effect on the viewer as the bath scene, where it's very clear that it was the victim who was raped, rather than the perpetrator. This is another great scene. In the film it seems that there is no nudity in Turkey, so it doesn't really matter. There is some nudity here, too, although it isn't very erotic. However, I don´t think it matters much. If you want to see Turkish films with nudity and sex, then you should see this one, or at
