40-year old Cemal is a lonely hearse driver. He is given a secret task: A young girl named Zeynep has been brutally murdered and the body should be delivered to her family in the east. He hits the road. During the night, he opens the back doors of the van to find the dead girl making strange grunting noises. When he checks her pulse, she doesn’t have any. The beauty of the living dead girl mesmerises Cemal, who ends up falling in love with her. The problem is, as Zeynep awakens from the eternal sleep, so does her appetite… for humans. “The Funeral” will have its world premiere at MOTELX, where it will also be presented by its director, Orçun Behram, whose previous film, “The Antenna”, was nominated in one of Sitges - Catalonian International Film Festival’s sections.
