Zombie is a bass playing, vodka-swigging lost soul who can't make it in the army, as a roofer or as a morgue gurney-pusher. The demise of each short-lived occupation is humorous, but Zombie's is baleful look and apathetic demeanour seem to be barely covering deep sadness, we know not why. Along the way, Zombie has several encounters with The Ghost Train, the grim reapers of rock, a band that ‘has many gigs, but nobody has ever heard it play’. He drifts with the flow of life, between Istanbul and Helsinki, but loses track of reality.
Directed by Mika Kaurismäki, the film is a tragicomedy about Zombi, a young musician trying to find a place for himself in a band and in the world.
Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
Having penetrated the Balkans in the fourteenth century, conquered Constantinople in the fifteenth, and reached the gates of Vienna in the sixteenth, the Ottoman Empire long struck fear into European hearts.
