Synopsis

Officer Haydar Rıza has an argument with his wife one night and finds himself in a world he never knew in the back streets of Beyoğlu.

Our take

A gripping portrait of hope and disillusionment in Istanbul’s underbelly, this film stands alone in Turkish cinema with its raw, nocturnal energy. Led by a magnetic Tarık Akan, Şerif Gören crafts an unrelenting urban odyssey, where the neon-lit streets pulse with temptation and inescapable fate.
