The Encounter (Turkish: Karşılaşma) is a 2002 Turkish-Hungarian drama film, co-written, co-produced and directed by Ömer Kavur, starring Uğur Polat as a man embarking on a new life. The film, which went on nationwide general release across Turkey on December 26, 2003 (2003-12-26), won five awards at the 40th Antalya "Golden Orange" International Film Festival, including the Golden Orange for Best Film. It was the final film of Turkish director Ömer Kavur, who described it as, "the unadorned story of an interesting search in the midst of extraordinary circumstances with surrealistic overtones."
