Here is the opinion of a TV producer of Turkey who found to make this novel a film in
the Turkey not technical possible because it contains also some science fiction parts.
Target/Genre/Market/Demographic Focus:
Young and old audience
Describe The Main Characters:
Robert Daly Robert is a man in his thirties. Although he had tried every therapy going, he still
had not managed to save one hair on his head. When all else failed, he finally solved his hair
problem by wearing a cute wig. All the doctors had diagnosed the cosmic rays of the sun as
responsible for his goggle eyes, but none of the healing remedies seemed to work. The worst
thing about him was his mentally depressive nature which he didn’t seem able to break free from.
Mary Hofman : She is Robert`s wife, in her thirties.
Tim Hofdaly: The only son of the family, a very intellectual school boy
Erol Atila :The hero of this book, Erol is a brave, good looking very young boxer with
brown hair and muscular body.
He was so badly bullied by the children in his
neighbourhood as a child that he had to seek
protection from the Turkish Kabadayis (knights). His
enormous hatred for these children resulted in him
becoming an unbeatable boxer. When his father was
killed by an enemy of nature, he decided, as a nature
lover, to wage a lifelong battle against the destruction
of nature. He wandered from country to country,
trying to find some country which protected its nature
and wildlife. He climbed into the boxing rings in
Europe. Afterwards he was shot at the border in the
DDR{Ex communist Germany} and sentenced to life
imprisonment. There he wrote these books, in which
he describes not just his battle against the destruction of nature, but also his dramatic
loves.
She had fair skin and fine, delicate hands. When she shyly smiled,
her ample lips parted to reveal a gleaming set of white teeth. I noticed
too late that I had returned her smile, and tried to close my lips. I had to
compose myself, although it wasn’t easy, because of all the other people
around. The women whispered with their hands over their mouths.
Whisper! Whisper! The girl’s face turned first bright red, and then
resumed its normal colour.
Sabri: A cruel schoolboy,17 who bulled Erol with his low life friends
Describe any Supporting Characters:
Guard Hans: The German guard in prison of communist Germany,35 years old
University Professor: A environmentalist German University professor in prison of

What actors or actresses (if any) are visualized for these parts?
We have been running non stop so damned fast without considering where we are
going to finish up. Isn't it about time we stopped running for once, and actually asked
each other where we are heading? I do it now and ask you in this book: Where are we
heading?
My great aim is to see this novel one day as a first great environmental film which the
audience might ask each other this question. I would very appreciate you if you assist
me. This 5 books are very suitable to make serial films. Akin Tekin
