Three Monkeys

Three Monkeys

Turkish director Nuri Bilge Ceylan's film tells the story of a family blown apart by lies and non-communication. When Servet (Ercan Kesal), a politician involved in a car accident, asks his driver Eyup (Yavoz Bingol) to take the rap - a short jail sentence - in return for a financial reward, the driver's wife Hacer (Hatice Aslan) and teenage son Ismail (Ritaf Sungar) are inevitably affected by Eyup's decision to take the money. Wishing to help her son, Hacer approaches Servet for an advance, and soon gets more involved with him than she bargained for.

Before long, all four characters find themselves trapped in a tangled web of guilt and deceit...
