Play :: Leyla is close to Craig, an art student. More westernised than her husband Emin, she suddenly returns home to Turkey, supposedly to mourn a family loss. Without stating his homosexuality, Craig then embarks on a close relationship with Emin, a devout Muslim, which excludes both Bill, whom Craig is seeing largely for sex, and Joe, Craig's widowed father. When Leyla returns, she confides in Craig, telling him the truth about her marriage. The outcome is fatal, and the final touching moments of what seem violent domestic events, suggests a darker social tragedy.
