'Honor Roll Boys' (MiamisFF Review): A Bit of Harmless Fun
Initially feeling like a passionate group having a bit of harmless fun with filmmaking, it leads to something sinister enough to leave a mark.
Ya Nasip Ya Kısmet
in a remote Anatolian town dominated by heat and drought, Ahmet, who tries to solace himself with the power of material wealth after a family tragedy, has an ambitious nephew named Yiğit. While Yiğit does whatever it takes to expand his business, he also disrupts the peace of the town due to his obsession with winning over Aysel. Unpopular and avoided by everyone in town, Yiğit acts out with the aggressiveness born of loneliness and the lack of affection he desperately craves, striving to harm both his uncle Ahmet and his former friend Mustafa. Something is amiss in the quiet life of the town. Everything changes one night with a mysterious dream Ahmet sees and the events that unfold after it. However, it will not be so easy to make amends, neither for Yiğit, who persists in his ambitions, nor for Ahmet, who values material wealth more than family relationships.
