There was a dream sequence in which Mahmut, the photographer guy, had a weird dream (a standing floor lamp slowly tipped over while he was drowsily watching TV). Also, there was a weird part right before Yusuf was awoken by the mouse caught in the sticky-tape, where he lay in bed looking at a strange white light that was shining right at him, growing in intensity, then fading away. There was no real explanation for that white light, so, I'd call it surreal.

Also, that freighter tied up at dockside, listing heavily to one side, seemed surreal to me for some reason. Or at least, unexpectedly odd. You'd think the area near a dangerous situation like that would have been cordoned off to keep people away from the ship...

In my country there is a boat like that. You can actually get closer and play there.
