Is the movie About Dry Grasses available on Netflix, Disney+, Prime or Apple TV+?

At Stream Tracker, we check where to find films that linger long after the credits — and Nuri Bilge Ceylan’s About Dry Grasses is exactly that kind of film. Set in a dust-blown Anatolian village, it follows a young art teacher whose dreams of a transfer to Istanbul are undone by accusations that unravel his sense of self; the movie’s slow, painterly gaze, empty classrooms and strained silences build an almost tactile existential crisis. The film was critically acclaimed at Cannes 2023, earning Nuri Bilge Ceylan the festival’s Best Director prize. In this article we’ll map out whether About Dry Grasses is streaming on Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video or Apple TV+, and how to catch it if it’s available.

Synopsis

A young art teacher, serving his mandatory term at an isolated village school in Anatolia, pins his hopes on a transfer to Istanbul once his service ends.
