NYFF Review - 'The Inspection' Unearths Empathy in the Trenches of Bootcamp
The film exhibits a respect for the craft and an empathy for human tribulations that have historically been ignored.

A rigged boxing match that goes wrong connects the fates of three unaccomplished men. Ferit Kamaci is an ambitious amateur boxer who has passed the age of going pro. One night, Ferit secretly decides to get on the ring at the opening night of Rita, a nightclub in the ghettos, instead of driving his brother's taxi in that night's shift. Ilyas Kargi, a middle-aged man who is a mafia in the ghettos, owns the nightclub. He is trying to strengthen his relationship with his son through organizing an opening night match, where a discreet bet is placed. Babür Taha Öner, Ferit's cousin, bets all the money that he stole from his uncle on Ferit, trusting that he'll hit the jackpot. When Ferit knocks out his professional opponent in the ring, a series of events unfolds that lead to the death of his brother Ali.
