Plot

Uğur Yücel's directing debut, known in English as Toss Up, won best film, best screenplay and best director at the Antalya Golden Orange festival in 2004. A tragicomedy set in a prison, it follows a group of prisoners and the prison staff, and is a humane, bittersweet portrait of Turkish society.

Sinekatalog’s take

Uğur Yücel's debut Toss Up won best film, best screenplay and best director at the 2004 Golden Orange. A prison tragicomedy that follows inmates and guards with sharp humour and real feeling, it is one of the best Turkish debuts of its decade.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
