“…a striking debut feature about the limits of ideology and dogma. Thoughtful, provocative and powerfully acted.”—Hollywood Reporter
Muharrem lives a solitary existence, adhering strictly to the most severe Islamic doctrines. When a religious leader hires him as a rent collector, he is given Western-style suits, a cell phone and a car with a driver. Thrown suddenly into the modern world, the naïve Muharrem is exposed to temptations and hypocrisies, and his fear of God threatens to consume him. Though denied an Oscar nomination, Turkey's 2006 submission for the Best Foreign Film Academy Award has garnered recognition and acclaim at festivals around the world.
