A politician’s personal driver, Eyup, takes the blame for his boss’s traffic accident and goes to jail in his place. His wife, Hacer, is left alone with their adolescent son Ismail. In order to get the boy the money he needs for the car, he’s been dreaming of, she goes to the politicians for help. But she ends up getting more involved with him than she would have wanted. Like the three famous wise monkeys, the three members of the family “see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil”. The crisis that leads the family into long estrangement and penury results in tragedy. This minimalist family drama is filmed in a polished visual style, with carefully lit shots creating wildly beautiful sets. Full of shadows, hopelessness and darkness, most of the story unfolds under the surface. The protagonists appear passive, enveloped in a veil of pride that keeps them from getting close to one another.
