%X The difference between rural and urban, which is a common feature of the third world countries, makes itself felt distinctivelyin Turkey. The sources of the difference between rural and urban are various: population, economy, family structure, geographicconditions, composition of settlement, behavior patterns, socio-cultural structure, difference between the perception of womanand man and marriage are some of the issues that constitute urban-rural difference. These differing features of rural and urban,necesarily disconnected villagers and urbanites and two different worlds emerged from that.Encounters of villagers and urbanites in Turkey mostly happen in the cities.

Individual comingfrom rural part of the country experiences a cultural integration problem in the city.

Encounters of country people and urbanites as a result of migrationeither from rural to urban or from urban to rural, constitute a frequent theme for Turkish cinema. These films explore themessuch as adaptation of countryman to the city or urbanite to the country side, communication between country people andurbanites, being the ¡°other¡± in city or in country side, alienation resulting from differing environments, and the fact of "gender" inrural-urban encounters.
