Why Do You Remain Silent ?
(San Niya Sousoursan)

by Gassan SEIDBEYLI

Rassim, a young mechanic, meets Sureya and fails in love with her. But he is dragged into Shirmamed’s wrongdoings; Shirmamed is Sureya’s father and the leader of a gang of poachers. Realising his fault, Rassim tries to convince Sureya to stop trafficking in stolen fish. After a long period of reflection, Rassim becomes aware that he cannot go against his conscience; even for love’s sake. In his fierce struggle against the bandits, Rassim escapes death and manages to inform against them.
