Sinekatalog’s take
A neighbourhood man refuses to leave his home when a boss and his American partners want to build a factory. A scrappy underdog adventure with a class-conflict backbone. Suited to fans of rough, working-class Turkish action.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
