Our take
Winner of Best Film at the Istanbul Film Festival, Vuslat Saraçoğlu’s subtle commentary on family and middle-class ethics reveals the effects of economic struggles on the daily lives of ordinary people. A low-key story with great insights, Debt observes the fragile nature of being “a good citizen.”
