FILM

In this film that wavers unsteadily between a comedy and a tragedy, Murtaza (Mujdat Gezen) is a deluded security guard whose fanatical reverence for "duty" verges on the psychotic. He is incapable of seeing himself for what he is -- and as a consequence he is often the unwitting and unknowing brunt of jokes. His wife and daughters are painfully aware of his shortcomings, but they generally suffer in silence. One of the daughters ends up working in the factory to help the family out financially, and when Murtaza finds her sleeping on the job one night he hits her so hard she eventually dies from the blow. Though that is not the end of it, by any means.

"Haram Oldu" marks Ferdi Tayfur's directorial debut. The story centres around Ferdi, a famous singer, who is married to Nuran. Their marriage is an unhappy one, largely because of Nuran’s flamboyant, showy lifestyle — she seems to crave the public appearances, extravagance and social status that comes with being married to a celebrity. Ferdi, despite his fame, feels stifled by this and isn’t able to find peace or happiness within the marriage. In the midst of his marital problems, Ferdi meets Şerife, another woman with whom he falls in love. He decides he wants to leave Nuran and divorce her in order to be with Şerife. However, his plans are far from straightforward; Nuran refuses to accept a divorce and this creates tension and conflict.

Guner Sernikli is a government official who, with his wife and their wheelchair bound daughter, has been assigned as the head librarian to this isolated province, virtually an exile since there is no library in the village. The family is warmly welcome, but these are the years of political anarchy and leftist/rightist clashes in big cities and the youth of the village inevitably follow the tides. They arrive in Vizontele, just as the situation is becoming really absurd. Guner brings wisdom; his daughter Tuba brings beauty, innocence and love. Some like the Mayor, Nazmi Dogan and crazy Emin appreciate these things but they are in the minority and confusion continues to reign. The story is based on the memories of writer-director Yılmaz Erdoğan of the last summer of his childhood in Hakkâri, Turkey in 1980.
