Nemlizade (2024) Movie Script

1
You stole shoes.
None of you thought
"There's a girl among us."
But when you're horny,
you fucking think of us.
That's so true, Hale.
I'm really turned on.
Dude, we struck
the apartments of Acibadem.
Look at us! Our peers have
become managers of companies.
We still wear stolen shoes.
Kamil, what are you filming?
You're filming me, right?
Focus on me, don't miss anything,
or I'll stab you.
Pick a pair, Talat,
or there won't be any left.
She's right, Talat.
Let me see that.
Give me a minute. Hold this.
This one's perfect for me.
It's my size, too.
Dude, I don't like this.
Dude, I'm sorry, this is a leader's shoe.
I can't give it to you when I'm here.
Look, there's a K here too. Serkan's K.
I won't remember you looking at it.
Let me put it on.
Don't film the socks.
I couldn't find
clean socks at home, Kamil.
It's beautiful!
I gotta buy a horse to match.
Hey, look. Spin it, Talat.
What can I get you?
What the hell is that money?
- You broke into houses in broad daylight?
- No!
Just the buildings of the rich.
They put a basket in front of every door.
Inside is a list and money
for the doorman to shop.
Makes sense, like bait.
"I'll just take this and walk away,
I don't want no trouble."
But they secure the stash inside.
Well, it's risk-free.
It's risky, for the doorman.
Really.
Too bad, they'll fire him.
- Poor guy, he's one of us.
- No, we didn't steal.
We got the lists.
We went to the market.
We got everything for half the price.
Whatever is on the list.
Milk, eggs, honey, bread, meat
We put them on everyone's doorstep.
Talat, this is creative theft.
Think of it as creative writing.
But we're teaching the class.
Stick with us.
- Who the hell is this?
- Talat.
He just moved here, my student.
He is learning about life.
Then he can come to
ask for my sister's hand. It'll be nice.
That makes sense.
We'll ask for his sister tonight.
Again.
So. For about a year
I'm in love with Kerim's sister, Keriman.
Although they're the same age.
And because I'm a punk. Her uncle is
being unnecessarily stubborn to keep her.
Kerim's father died,
so we have to ask for her from his uncle.
But I have a reputation
in the neighborhood, Talat.
We'll trust our name
and get the girl for sure.
May you be like Onur!
Let's go.
Kamil. Look, I have a rosary of
Beylerbeyli Galip Usta.
I'm gonna blow her mind with this.
Talat, look, that's her, Keriman.
Do you see her?
What do you mean don't come?
I will. Talat, go.
I'll impress her. Wait there.
How many times have I told you
not to come? The kids are scared.
You shouldn't have become a teacher, then.
Fine, go now. Come back after school.
You're going straight home,
I'll meet you at home.
Onur, look, you're being stubborn.
My uncle won't let me leave,
you have to find a job.
Quite the opposite. That's easy.
I'll do the hard thing.
I'll marry you, despite your uncle.
He'll give you to me saying
"Damn you, Onur!"
Fine, go, the bell's rung.
The kids will be here. Go on, go.
- Kiss me and I'll go.
- Onur, people will see us, go.
That's what I want. Give me a kiss.
- I think Keriman is kissing me.
- Fine! I'll kiss you, shut up!
- You're such a punk.
- Good for me.
Come on, the bell rang.
The kids will be here. Go!
Keriman, I love you.
Love you too,
but you know it's not enough.
It's good enough for me.
I wouldn't enjoy it this much
if we were married.
I love making people say "I love you."
I think everyone should say it,
because I'm worth it.
Talat.
Did you see that? She kissed me.
- I didn't.
- How did you not see?
I swear she kissed me.
Fine, but I didn't see.
Screw you Talat, use your eyes.
KADIKOY DISTRICNEMLIZADE MUKHTAR'S OFFICE
- What the hell is this?
- Camera, was filming the neighborhood.
I said come and shoot me,
I am the neighborhood.
He's been filming me for a while.
He's so nice, you know?
I stabbed him a couple times.
He didn't even go to the police.
Such an honorable man.
Uncle, Mr. Talat has just
moved to our neighborhood.
He is poor, he has no one.
I'm teaching him about life.
He's in the right place.
Every second is a lesson with you.
What did I ever do, uncle?
- Shall I list everything, Onur?
- Yes.
You fucking pissed on me.
Uncle, why do you have to
rummage everything?
My sweetheart, my darling,
the meaning of my life.
If you can't ask for her, who will?
Strangers?
Son, he won't let her go.
Why don't you understand?
He doesn't like you. He doesn't want you.
But he would want you,
Namik is an old-fashioned man.
He wants to give her
to someone who has achieved things.
You're the leader of the neighborhood.
Who better than you?
You could've made millions
if you abused your duty.
- But you're pure, you won't exploit it.
- Will we ask for her for me?
No, for me.
As your own nephew,
I'm a man who has achieved things.
Uncle, look.
God didn't give you children.
I don't know your sins.
But He gave you a nephew like a mountain.
If you can't take care of me, I'm sorry,
but fuck that kind of an uncle.
Dear God forgive us!
Come on! We'll be late.
We're not late, Onur.
The man told us not to come.
You'll make me face that vampire,
I don't know what to tell you.
- He's my brother-in-law!
- Yes.
Speaking of vampires, where's your wife?
She isn't coming, Onur.
I have a little bit of shame, she said.
I was elected mukhtar for four terms.
Just to find myself in this?
We can leave Kerim here.
That's rude, dude. It's my own house!
Your uncle won't let you in anyway.
Kamil, come on.
Film us.
She's an ex-real estate agent.
She'll show us a house from the catalog.
Dude, I'm a real estate agent too!
Shut up Kerim, let's not worry
about your concerns.
Get on with it.
Mom, I'll have some soup while I'm here.
He won't let me, Kerim, what can I do?
He won't allow it.
So Let's get to the point.
Uncle Namik, actually,
we were going to get to the point.
- We will ask and you will answer.
- No, it's fine.
I don't want you to bother.
You are embarrassing us, Dad. Or uncle.
Or Mr. Namik.
I'll embarrass you more.
Don't you have any shame?
You've got some nerve, son.
Ten times you asked for her,
ten times I refused.
What about you, mukhtar?
I'm embarrassed to kick you out the door.
How dare you come to my door
with these guys?
Namik, Onur is my nephew.
He has no parents, you know.
What do I care?
What kind of an argument is that?
What should I say?
"He has no parents,
I'll give her to him right away!"
What should I say?
Now I've come to ask for her.
No need to break hearts.
If you could pay
more attention to your words
I wish they would break.
No matter what I do,
your hearts won't break.
Be offended a little.
I wish you didn't say that Namik.
Look, you have a nephew, too.
None would dare
to give a girl to my nephew!
I don't believe in favoritism.
Brother, you refused him 10 times.
But this boy didn't give up.
He is here anyway.
That means he loves her.
Take it down a notch please.
Mukhtar, I don't give a fuck!
Fuck that shit!
Get the fuck out of my house.
- Fuck off!
- Language!
I'm the headman of the state.
Fucking asshole.
Are we in the mukhtar's office?
Is it the state asking for her?
- Stop filming!
- Enough is enough!
It's my turn now.
You've been talking shit for two hours.
What age is this, man?
What's "giving a girl"?
Hell yeah, speak up.
It's because of Hicks like you
that we're in this mess.
Don't overdo it.
What do you want?
Why won't you let her go?
She's the size of a donkey.
She can sleep with whoever she wants.
What the hell is this?
Fine. Keriman, come here, girl.
Do you want to marry Onur?
Well, I'd like to.
But of course he has to find a job first.
He needs to be in a good position.
Well, I'm a teacher, and people know me.
They might take it out on Onur,
if he doesn't have a job.
Onur.
This girl isn't worth shit. Let's go.
Don't wear yourself out for free sex, man.
Get out.
Get out.
Move it!
Come uncle, let's go.
We'll come back later.
Come on!
Shame on you, uncle.
I was humiliated in front of my friends.
I'm very hurt. I'm going to my room.
Get the fuck out of this house!
Get out. Get the fuck out!
Uncle. You'll see.
I'll find a good job
and I'll take Neriman.
Onur.
Don't call me uncle!
Your uncle is dead. Leave me alone!
Leave. Me. Alone!
- Uncle.
- Don't call me uncle!
- Uncle.
- Your uncle is dead!
- Don't call me uncle.
- Rasim!
- Go!
- Uncle!
- Brother Rasim!
- Uncle!
Uncle!
Was it worth it to upset me, uncle?
Look what you've become.
Oh, Rasim, oh!
I told you not to go.
I told you not to take his word for it.
She is sad.
What do you say?
Should we wait? Will he die?
Even if he doesn't, he'll be bedridden.
But it's better if he dies.
Kadriye, take them away from here. Please.
Onur!
Look, this Hale girl has been
staying at my place for a year.
As if that wasn't enough,
you added Kerim to that.
She's a woman, I understand that.
But it doesn't work out
with this guy, Onur.
I lock the door
and go to bed in my own house.
I bought a gun.
I'm sleeping with a loaded gun.
If I have a nightmare, it might fire!
I don't want him.
Is now the right time?
Please take him with you.
Fine.
Kerim, Hale, come on, let's go.
I'm sorry for you too. May God help you.
- What happened, Doctor?
- I'm very sorry.
We lost him twice,
but we finally brought him back to life.
How can you talk like that?
Like it's bad news.
Mr. Rasim is a great man.
I bet he went to heaven.
We electroshocked him out of heaven.
He resisted and went again.
And we brought him back.
But unfortunately in a vegetative state.
I don't know if he'll come to or not.
- Are you okay?
- My uncle!
Are you in a vegetative state, Uncle?
- Okay, nothing happened.
- Are you in a vegetative state?
- Onur.
- It's my blood sugar.
I haven't eaten since this morning.
Ahmet, get me a wrap.
There's a guy from Kilis,
he has very good liver.
Get half a loaf of bread.
I'm not well, Ahmet.
My uncle is in a vegetative state.
At a young age. Did that woman faint?
His wife? No, she didn't faint.
You see, I fainted. She didn't.
They can't have children either.
Why won't my uncle leave her?
Why didn't he break up with her?
I would have inherited it.
Oh, uncle.
My beautiful uncle.
Is there anything I can do, brother?
Do you have a guilty conscience, brother?
Do you have a guilty conscience, brother?
Brother.
Do you have a guilty conscience?
Yeah, shut the fuck up.
Why are you pissing me off, man?
I told you not to blame yourself
that your uncle is
bedridden because of you.
Why should he be bedridden because of me?
It's an accident.
I just miss my uncle.
Dude, if your uncle
left you an inheritance,
your aunt would never give it to you.
So who will be the mukhtar now?
When I thought about it,
I realized I had a guilty conscience.
After all, my uncle was there
because of me.
I owe to my uncle.
That's why I decided to take over
the mukhtar's office.
I didn't do it so I could have Keriman,
Kerim's beautiful sister more easily.
Come on.
So, my dear neighborhood.
You know how my uncle is.
I thought we should keep things running.
That's why I've become
the substitute mukhtar.
And help clear the backlog.
Is it that easy?
Let the elders decide that.
Don't do things on your own, Onur.
The elders made their decision
under pressure.
We went to the district governor's office
and they gave me a reference.
Brother Halil, why did you do it?
I don't know, Musa.
He said, "Stand at the door,
if the district governor asks,
tell him that I'm a good guy."
After all, he's from the neighborhood.
We thought he was in trouble.
You thought, dude.
We told you he's a crook.
Brother Musa, let's not be hard
on the old people.
I want to repay my uncle by serving him.
It's what my uncle would've wanted.
He always said, "What I have is yours."
So it's kind of like a will.
If you oppose,
you're an enemy of the neighborhood.
They also gave me a gun
after I became mukhtar.
Look, that's not how it works, Onur.
I'll tell you.
There is an election in three months.
- You'll go in the first election.
- You wouldn't hurt me.
Congratulations to my buddy
for being mukhtar!
Bravo!
What's this? Isn't that a magnolia tree?
Why are there grapes?
Kamil, film it. Look at that.
Even the trees are messed up
in these times.
- Interesting, Mr. Onur.
- Mister?
- Let me hear it again.
- Mr. Onur.
Get out of the way.
Ado, wait a second.
Let me tell you something.
Close the door, Kerim.
What's going on?
We are parting ways.
You're leaving us now.
What does that mean? Why?
Brother, I've just become a mukhtar.
I'm persuading the neighborhood,
you being around us, would harm us.
He's right, Ado. Don't come for a while.
What are you guys talking about?
"Me being around you."
- It's my job, isn't it?
- Yes.
We can't convince anyone with a guy
who shows his dick for a living.
You can't oversimplify things like that.
I won't allow it.
It's 43 centimeters.
I have a certificate. You all know that.
People buy tickets. There are stampedes.
You know what they do to see it
for five minutes.
Don't start again. We know, brother.
Onur, we talked about this before.
I told you to respect me
and you accepted that.
It was different then, Ado. It was cold.
I was hanging out with you at the office.
Now the circumstances have changed.
Our future is at stake.
Please leave your friends,
and don't say a word.
- Otherwise I'll have to shoot you.
- Onur, look.
- This way
- Scram.
Go on.
- Okay.
- I'll shoot!
Okay, I'm gone, fine!
Kamil, cut this bit.
It'll make us look bad.
It says no smoking inside, look.
I didn't see it.
Did you get a stamp with signature?
Yes, it's there.
That's good.
Keep things running while I'm gone.
Residency paper, whatever, just stamp it.
How much should we charge for the stamp?
I don't know.
If they're rich, get what you can.
If they're poor,
just give it for 10 liras.
But they can get it online now.
We inherited a wreck.
There's no income here.
The office is nice and all,
but money doesn't flow here.
The mukhtar's salary is not enough
to get Keriman or serve the neighborhood.
Ahmet, Google this.
"Fraudulent Mukhtar".
Maybe we'll learn something. Type it!
Begin with "The fraudulent mukhtar"
and let it complete.
Dude, you should have at least one talent.
This is my talent, Ms. Hale.
To be a mukhtar.
Look, I'm the leader of the neighborhood.
Mukhtar, the vehicle is here.
That's my baby.
And now I am the headman.
Where did this come from?
We rented it with the future money
of the mukhtar's office.
Brother, I'm the closest person to you,
I'm your driver.
We will distribute tasks Ahmet.
I am the vehicle commander.
What do you think, Hale?
I've never seen anything so stupid.
Open up to her, man. Talk to her.
Maybe she'll soften up.
Dude, I'm scared she'll refuse.
So what if she rejects you?
You're already fucked.
It's good when a girl tells you no.
At least she's talking to you.
I'm waiting for the time
when she can't say no, dude.
Onur! Nice one!
Thank you, sister Kadriye, thank you.
You should sacrifice an animal.
God forbid,
it'll protect you from accidents.
You're right, Kadriye. See you soon.
Sami, what are you doing?
- Come.
- I wish you well.
I got a car, thanks.
How is it? Is it nice?
- It's really good.
- It's a great car.
- What are you doing, man?
- I'm sorry, Kadriye said.
She said to sacrifice an animal.
May Allah accept it.
She meant a sheep, man!
I'm vegan, Sami, I can't.
Kamil, cut these bits too.
Don't publish this.
Come on, don't show this.
How is it?
- You go ahead, I'll check the car.
- Nice.
I want to be alone with my car.
Kamil, did you see that?
"You can drive in the safety Lane" light.
Put this on and you're good to go.
Oh, yeah. It's a beautiful car.
Turn off the camera,
stop filming everything.
Have a seat. Go ahead.
So, you look tired and old.
Why do you still want this?
It's the love of the seat, man.
I am determined not to waste
your precious time for that love.
- So?
- So I am retiring you.
Go and spend quality time with your
spouses and children.
And if one of you dies I looked it up
and 25 years old is enough to be an elder.
We'll replace you with one of us.
What are we going to do?
Just go, Uncle Halil.
Uncle?
Shame on you. I'm your teacher, son.
I called you uncle at school too.
I suffered for five years.
What's that got to do with it?
Didn't you hang my picture
in school as a model student?
Not as a model, Onur.
We put it up as an example.
I was pointing my finger at you.
I was seven-year-old.
What harm did I do to you?
Still calling me uncle. Call me teacher.
I'm sorry, Uncle Halil.
You couldn't educate me.
You didn't teach me anything. Admit it.
You were not worth it.
I knew the boy who would
become a man by his eyes.
That's why not a single decent
person came out of this school.
Really.
This school is the only thing
the youth have in common.
Only Keriman studied at a university.
And she went to a private school.
So, you're the mukhtar because
the school is bad, is that it?
Is that what you're saying, brother?
Is that what you'll tell
when the auditor comes?
What auditor? Will there be an auditor?
We're going to Eymen's rosary shop,
Mr. Talat.
He is the mentor of the neighborhood.
He had been in prison for 20 years.
He read philosophy books
and improved himself.
He has a lot to say.
I have a lot of respect for him too.
Make sure you learn something.
20 years in prison is not for everybody.
- Onur, welcome.
- Thank you, brother.
Have a seat.
Would you like some tea?
No, we won't. I just wanted to see you.
Brother, why didn't you make me
a nice Ottoman rosary?
They are expensive Onur.
Don't chase after those.
Get a poor man's rosary and use it.
Now, I'm embarking on a difficult journey.
Good luck.
My uncle had an accident
so I could be happy.
He's in a vegetative state.
- Yes.
- Mukhtar's seat was vacant.
And I wanted to pay off
my debt to my uncle.
As a man of the neighborhood
and as the nephew of the mukhtar
I've taken over the mukhtar's office.
What do you want from me?
The auditor's coming.
I didn't know what to do
in such a situation.
You did something you shouldn't have done.
And you stole the seat.
I have nothing to do with these
offices and positions.
I don't know what you can do, but
If the neighborhood complains,
they'll even lock you up.
No way!
The neighborhood,
they turned their backs on me!
I took over for them.
I thought they'd be happy.
They almost won't even look at me.
Do you believe that excuse?
Don't turn your back on me, too.
I don't turn my back on anyone.
You usurped the seat by cheating.
If you ask yourself this question,
you will see the truth:
"If someone else
had become mukhtar in this way
what would my reaction be?"
Think about it.
May I drink this?
You can.
Onur.
He who is far from the sultan,
is the sultan, my son.
That's how Eymen is.
He always says
the opposite of the other person.
It's as if I spent 20 years in prison.
He said well, Mr. Onur.
Attention!
Serkan, don't do that. Look at this!
- At what?
- This!
The auditor's coming. Get up!
Get your shit together.
Throw that cigarette away.
Serkan, what are you looking for?
How well do you know your uncle?
What?
My uncle used to
buy them from me for his wife.
Now that you're the mukhtar,
his uncle will give Keriman to you.
Let's avoid this auditor first.
That'll be next.
What are we going to talk to this auditor?
Whatever we ask,
he will understand our ignorance.
Let's keep it quiet brother.
Ahmet.
I am who you want to be.
That Ahmet, he's a dog.
Dude, let's make a bigger ruckus.
He'll run after us.
He'll forget about going to police.
Ahmet, I apologize to you, brother.
I don't want to say. I say it's not
worth it, but it makes sense.
So?
I just don't say it.
Maybe he'll talk in general.
General means broader information.
Let us direct the conversation, Mr. Onur.
For example, ask questions, praise him.
Overwhelm him.
When his shift is over, he'll leave.
Mr. Talat. I am very surprised.
Congratulations.
Thank you, Mr. Onur.
I think he's here. It's him!
Gather round, I think it's him.
Sir, welcome. Please come in.
Thank you.
Mumtaz, district governor's office.
I guess you're Mukhtar Onur.
Congratulations.
Thank you, sir. Here.
Thanks to you.
You have such a cute neighborhood.
I was just looking around.
Close to Acibadem.
Far from Sirinevler.
It's nice. House prices are also good.
We can find you a house right away.
Do you have Kadriye's card, Ahmet?
Kadriye is the real estate agent.
Kerim is also a realtor.
I'm not giving his card
because he's not that good.
- That's how sincere I am.
- I have Kadriye's card.
Pass it to him, son.
Give her my name
and ask for the impossible.
That's very much appreciated. Thank you.
Hey, mukhtar. Let me ask you something.
Did you get that car outside
from the previous mukhtar?
From the previous guy, sir.
He loved pompous stuff.
So, it's staying there.
Right here at the door.
Gasoline, washing, insurance,
and everything.
We got the mileage reset.
So that's a loss of 50-60k a year.
It's just at the door, collecting dust.
Would you like something Mr. Mumtaz?
Thank you. I'll pass.
We're on the clock.
I'll talk business and leave.
But what would you get,
if you really wanted something?
Definitely tea.
What? I bet he'd have coffee.
By the way,
your shirt is very stylish, Mr. Mumtaz.
- Thank you.
- The pants are nice, too.
- Matches the shirt.
- Right? It's not bad.
These pants? What's good about it?
It's the color of shit.
What do you mean? It's classy.
Look how well it matches the shirt.
But you know what? Shoes are my favorite.
Thank you.
Who are these people?
From the neighborhood.
We got to work right away.
I was listening to their troubles.
Very good.
Anyway.
Let's get back to the topic at hand.
Onur. Mr. Onur.
Could you show Mr. Mumtaz your shoe?
- He's a man of great taste.
- Why bother?
- Let's show him.
- No need, Serkan.
Leave it, brother!
Man, these shoes
They were stolen
from my doorstep yesterday.
They belong to my grandfather.
No way. It's my grandfather's shoes.
Let me see. Look.
It has a K here.
Grandpa Kazim's shoes, mukhtar.
What was your grandfather's name?
Kazim. My step-grandfather.
Look, I just arrived here.
This is starting to bother me, Mr. Onur.
There's only one pair in the world.
My grandfather made it himself.
This shoe is my only inheritance.
No! My grandpa had it
specially designed for him.
He left them to me.
Did he have an illegal relationship
we didn't know about?
Mr. Onur
- They're robbing the grocery store.
- What? Run! Go!
Where are you going?
What's it to you, Mukhtar?
Call the police!
No! This neighborhood is my honor.
What a bunch of thieving assholes.
That pair is one of a kind.
You're on my radar.
I'll fuck you up.
Brother!
They're not robbing the store.
I lied to save you.
- I know.
- Where are we running to?
- I'm beat!
- This is nice!
We haven't been exercising.
I exercise when I mug people.
I can run to Salacak beach at this pace.
We can visit where Kurtlar Vadisi
was filmed, have tea and come back.
Hey, guys! Which way?
I was just going for a jog.
Scram! I swear I'll stab you!
- Go!
- Okay!
Are we always going to run away
from this guy like this?
No reaction.
Uncle, look, I got the mukhtar's lighter.
Smoke it, you like it.
Nothing. He won't smoke.
And his eyes are open.
What kind of vegetative state is this?
Shouldn't his eyes be closed
in a vegetative state?
Do something right for once.
Uncle. The mukhtar's office
is in good hands.
The neighborhood is almost happy
that you're paralyzed. I work so hard.
Don't fool yourself, Onur.
Your uncle doesn't hear you.
He would have died if he did.
No way. He got paralyzed for me.
He asked for a girl to make me happy.
Not to make you happy.
He wanted you to get off our backs
so we could be happy.
I wish he didn't.
Look at the state we are in.
You've made us miserable, Onur.
What's my fault? It's fate.
My uncle could have avoided fate
if he had looked ahead.
You've seen him.
Now please, get out of here.
Uncle, I, Mr. Talat
and my friends are leaving.
We'll come back, okay?
Uncle, we found the pill stash.
Relax. We haven't told anyone.
Sleep well.
Get well soon, sir.
Mr. Talat says get well soon.
Auntie, we're leaving.
The inheritance is yours,
spend it from there.
I'll call you if I need anything.
Get out of here. Or I'll yell!
You're already yelling, you maniac woman.
Maybe you paralyzed him.
He got hit by a truck right then.
Don't mind that woman's reaction,
Mr. Talat.
When one is in such sadness,
one frowns on those one loves the most.
She doesn't love her husband
as much as I do.
I hope your uncle regains his health ASAP.
But the auditor will come again.
It is useful to take concrete steps.
Dude, it's time for action.
People are gonna be pissed.
Okay.
Let's have a good rest at home.
Tomorrow, we're going to hit
the ground running, okay?
Ahmet, take me and Mr. Talat home.
Why is Talat in the back and I'm driving?
That's Mister for you.
And didn't you say
you wanted to be the driver?
I wanted to be near you.
I wouldn't want to
if I knew I could be near you
without doing anything.
Ahmet, shut up, I'm thinking.
Isn't that Auditor Mumtaz?
Come on!
Good evening Mr. Mukhtar Onur.
His crew, his camera. What's up?
Night outs in a state vehicle, Mr. Onur?
Oh, no. The car broke down
and we were taking it to be repaired.
We're working even at this hour.
We're hard working men.
Doesn't your shift end at 5:00?
Why are you here?
That's right. It ends at 5:00.
This has become a neighborhood
that I love.
I was just taking a stroll.
Anyway, it's late,
you have some work to do.
Good evening.
We need an emergency action plan.
This asshole's gonna be a nuisance.
Brother, we're so tired.
Let's rest.
Tomorrow we'll think calmly.
Tomorrow is long gone, brother.
We are late.
Yes.
First of all, we thank our painter enemy
Mahmut Calaka Gunduz very much.
He painted my picture.
We'll sell it when Mahmut is dead.
You can't force me to paint!
"Crown on my head, rosary around my neck."
I'll complain to the police.
You will.
Mahmut, slow down!
But you'll get what's coming to you!
So, dear people of Nemlizade.
I will always use all my powers for you.
This land has been
sitting empty for years.
This is where bums drink alcohol
- You drink here!
- Let me finish, brother.
Students secretly
smoke cigarettes, adolescents
Don't go there.
I've decided to turn this place into
something that's useful to everyone.
Yes, I'm inaugurating our
neighborhood's own cemetery.
DATE OF DEATH: SOON
Everyone wants to be buried
in their neighborhood.
Unfortunately, there are no dead among us.
But the person closest to death,
Uncle Halil is here.
I invite him to the grave
with a big applause.
Come here.
The floor is yours Uncle Halil.
Uncle Halil? I'm your teacher!
Admit it, you were a bad teacher,
but your time is over.
I'll fix that school too, you'll see.
How do you like it, Uncle Halil?
Here, take a pickaxe.
Uncle Halil.
- What's going on?
- It's nothing.
It's nothing.
He got excited.
It's nothing.
Give him some cologne, it's nothing.
What a shame.
Look at him.
You should have some decency.
- Isn't that right, neighbor?
- Yes.
What kind of nonsense is this, Onur?
- You should've asked first!
- You're not happy no matter what!
If you have an idea, then tell me.
If we had planted cucumbers,
it would have been much better.
Then we'd better plant eggplants.
I think cucumber is better.
- What's the price for cucumber?
- Thirty lira a kilo.
- How much is the eggplant?
- Forty lira.
What's more expensive?
What the fuck is this?
I wish we hadn't run.
We don't know what he's up to now.
He's definitely after me.
Look, he's talking to Musa.
What business
does an auditor have with him?
He talks to everyone one by one.
I think Kadriye is involved too.
We'll talk to the shopkeepers. Come on.
99 hours, 16,000.
Welcome, gentlemen.
- Thank you.
- Welcome.
Welcome. What can I get you?
- Tea works Ali Riza.
- Of course.
Can you get us some tea?
There are 6 of us.
Sorry to hear that
you're separated from your wife.
Thank you, brother.
I really miss her.
Of course I am.
She is one of a kind.
- Must've been a friendly break up.
- It was.
It was.
She is married to someone else now.
But we see each other
once or twice a week.
You're seeing a married woman?
Have you no shame?
What's the shame of it?
That's why we broke up.
That's the fantasy. She wants me
even though she's married.
Sure, it is.
Come closer.
She serves the tea so great.
Sometimes I say,
"I'd lay her down and fuck her."
Stop here!
What kind of perversion is that?
Don't say such things.
What perversion, Onur?
She's my wife. Married for two months.
- Allah Allah!
- Well, don't tell me.
We feel uncomfortable.
Don't tell us such things.
Let's get back to our topic.
You must have heard, I'm the mukhtar now.
I haven't heard, brother.
Believe me,
I've been in bed for two weeks.
Why, what happened?
You wouldn't
fucking believe if I told you.
This bitch
She has drained me dry.
12 hours a day,
we have sex for 12.5 hours straight.
- Well, that's nice.
- Of course.
It's good. Brother.
I lost my health.
I lost 40 kilos.
I can't say no.
I want it.
I'm pathetic. I'm a man, just like you.
Let's get out of here. Move it.
Be careful, brother.
You're the shopkeeper's talk.
If they can't send you until the elections
everyone will vote for the
first candidate that shows up.
- Yeah.
- You said you haven't heard.
I didn't hear it. I read it on WhatsApp
during sex with my wife.
They can't put anyone against me.
I'm good.
- I work so hard.
- Onur.
Brother, don't go from
shop to shop like this.
Do something, brother.
People need action.
More action!
Man of action!
Brother.
What kind of things
do you do for 12 hours?
- I was just wondering.
- How can you talk about such things?
Ahmet. Even I'm afraid to tell myself.
She's really something.
Look, this fantasy world.
It's worse than drugs.
Don't fall into that world.
This fantasy world is so crappy.
Don't fall in it, okay? Come on.
Ahmet.
Look, brother. Don't fall into that trap.
My Ahmet.
Look, son.
Don't fall.
Okay, brother?
Don't fall.
Come by again later!
Be sure to stop by!
Take the empties.
She blew me again, just by serving a tea?
Take the empties!
A real work of art, Kamil.
It is a really high-level work
anyway you look at it.
Mahmut is the best painter in the world.
So there is no second one.
It's beautiful.
Yes, sister Kadriye.
What is this Mumtaz doing
in the neighborhood?
He was looking for an apartment.
I showed him a couple. He loved them.
The shopkeepers aren't smiling.
He knows something is up.
And he's collecting info about you.
What kind of information?
Everything.
Your private life, your family.
He wrote everything down.
You gave them that information
since he took notes.
Your days in that chair are numbered, son.
Anyway, the neighborhood
would never agree.
There is an election in three months.
You sound like the neighborhood knows
what's right for them.
I'm not happy with Recep either.
There could be much better
stores in our neighborhood.
But we respected him.
We bought beer from him for years.
Yes, we thank Ms. Kadriye.
Thank you, Ms. Kadriye. Please.
Let's give Kadriye a round of applause.
What the hell is this?
Somehow we need to show
that you are valuable, Mr. Onur.
- Let's help someone.
- There's Aunt Nermin, she's poor.
She couldn't pay her rent,
can't afford her meds.
And she prays.
They say her prayers are accepted.
Good. That's right.
We'll get prayers and the neighborhood
will see some good deeds.
Guys, Auditor Mumtaz is after us.
If we can convince the shopkeepers,
the rest is easy.
But first we gotta figure out
the money, man.
That's right.
Then let's first make a task distribution.
Starting with me.
I am the mukhtar.
Now I need an assistant. Chief counselor.
I'm up for the job as your dear brother.
How old are you, man?
You'll be the second man?
I'm Onur's oldest friend.
This mission is mine, buddy.
Oh, that's great!
Cenk Tosun is older than Mbapp.
Who would you give the kit to?
- Cenk Tosun.
- Fuck off!
- Fuck you!
- Man, stop bickering!
We haven't saved our ass yet.
Don't you realize our ass is in danger?
Mukhtar's office isn't guaranteed yet.
Don't be ridiculous. Let's go.
Onur's grandfather's name was Kazim?
That's what he said.
His step-grandpa.
Allah Allah.
Why am I hearing this for the first time?
- Did you say step?
- Let's bounce.
Come on, even two is enough.
That's it.
God is making it rain today!
Uncle Halil, you don't normally say God?
I only hear you say it
when you play backgammon.
Yes.
My beloved neighborhood.
I present to you the mukhtar's staff.
I hereby appoint Ahmet
to his dream job as a driver.
Kerim in close protection, for no reason.
Serkan is the watchman,
since there was no one
to stop him from stealing.
So he is his own enemy.
Hale is the private secretariat,
though she never wanted it.
Mr. Talat is my chief advisor,
for his solid behavior.
Good luck to you.
Why the long face?
I was as lost and exhausted as you.
But I didn't frown upon others,
people of wealth and position.
This shit will end you.
You won't get anywhere.
Maybe luck will smile on you one day.
Be a little positive.
How did you appoint them?
I drew lots amongst myself.
Onur!
Even their families don't want them!
They failed to even stand
on the corner of the neighborhood.
And you expect us to applaud them.
When you put it like that,
we have no one to appoint.
Musa Abi, are you an unqualified man
because you pour tea?
I was a civil engineer, Onur.
I was being paid 20k per month in 1990.
You brother Recep?
I'm a retired officer, Onur.
I served for 15 months in the army.
You, Uncle Halil?
I served for five years, son.
No. What did you do for a living?
I was your teacher.
Don't you recognize me?
Anyway, the important thing is to serve.
They're the children of this neighborhood.
Give them a chance.
I know everything about the thief.
He won't steal anymore.
Who among us has such
a good command of his profession?
The man is his own enemy.
He's not going anywhere.
Also I will install two basketball hoops
for our school by the
beginning of the week.
Now we will collect
donations for Aunt Nermin.
He's bedridden, you know.
To meet her needs. Ahmet.
Help is mandatory.
Anyone not helping will be stabbed.
Aunt Nermin is in need.
After meeting the needs of Aunt Nermin
I'll buy myself something nice
with the money left over.
But don't sulk like that.
What have we done to you?
For fuck's sake, the magnolia tree
produces grapes.
You have a problem with
me being the mukhtar?
As if everything else is normal.
- Can you climb?
- Yeah.
This is nothing. I didn't even sweat.
- Here.
- Go!
Come, Kamil.
Aunt Nermin.
Don't be afraid, I'm Onur.
I know you, son.
You know me.
I became the mukhtar.
You know what I did first thing?
I paid off your rent debts.
I went shopping for you.
I got your medicine.
Ahmet, leave it there. You'll take them.
I really appreciate it, thank you.
You can say a prayer for us now, Auntie.
Thanks for being there, I can always pray.
Thank you, but say
"God bless you" anyway, Auntie.
I don't feel like it now.
Say "God bless you".
Don't drive me crazy, Auntie.
Don't be rude, son.
I told you I didn't feel like it.
Just say "God bless you." That's it.
It's that simple, say it. Pray for us!
- I don't fucking care!
- You fucking will!
Say "God bless you". Appreciate us!
Get the fuck out of my house.
- I'm not leaving!
- Damn you!
Damn you, bitch!
Bitch. Pray for us.
- God damn you!
- God damn you!
Filthy! Filthy bitch!
Ahmet, take the meds.
Take the pills, we'll take them.
Damn you!
She cursed at us, see?
Whatever, dude.
If her prayers worked,
she wouldn't be in bed.
- Never mind.
- Of course.
If her prayers worked,
she wouldn't be in bed.
It would be useful to check out
the shopkeepers, Mr. Onur.
Of course.
It would be useful to check out
the shopkeepers.
- Look, I'll strangle you to death!
- Calm down, buddy!
- Calm down.
- Let go!
There!
I'm sorry, Kerim. Ahmet is my brother.
I thought I'd stab someone
who is my equal instead.
But I'm relieved.
Good thing that I stabbed someone.
Have that wound stitched,
we have a lot of work, hurry!
Look! Like an owl, see? Look.
Look.
Ado!
Get the fuck out of there, get out!
Walk away.
Filthy owl.
We've lost our humanity
because of this mukhtar stuff.
Seriously.
We used to have so much fun, man.
We had a little beer, no headache,
everything was beautiful.
Everything will be fine.
Once they accept me as mukhtar.
Move, Kamil.
Brother Mehmet!
Sister Kadriye!
Brother Recep!
Where to?
Come here, come here!
Give alms.
- I don't have any change.
- Mr. Onur, people are watching, it's time.
Fine, here you go.
What the fuck is this?
You are the mukhtar.
Aren't you ashamed to give 10 lira?
- I'm not ashamed.
- Okay, here.
I'll give some more.
Here, Ms. Nesibe.
What is this, mutual charity?
You will get two prayers for one alms?
Nope.
I pray half a prayer,
50 percent chance of success.
- Deal?
- Deal.
I'll give you five liras,
say a prayer for me too.
I just got cursed.
Even if Moses prayed for you,
it would not work, Serkan.
But I'll give it a try.
- Hello Brother.
- Hey, Onur.
People are stubborn,
they won't give me what I deserve.
You're a man of honor. You'll understand.
Yes, but the people are uncomfortable
with you stealing the seat.
Don't mind them brother.
Not everyone is honorable, decent,
clean like you.
Onur, Brother Selcuk
is going to fuck you.
Brother Selcuk? Why?
He likes me. We're on good terms.
No. Literally, he wants to fuck you.
He was playing games
at the coffee shop,
and he said "I'll fuck Onur."
Then Erkut told us to come to you.
- What?
- Brother Selcuk is gay. We just found out.
And he has eyes for Onur.
I was going to tell you.
He practically sent someone for me.
So? What should I tell brother Selcuk?
You want to get fucked?
Let go Serkan!
- Fuck your brother Selcuk!
- That's what he wants.
Let go! What's he saying?
- Okay, let go.
- Hold him.
- Let go, I'm calm.
- Hold him.
Is that a "yes" then?
I'll kill you!
Mr. Mumtaz.
Mr. Mumtaz.
You seem like a nice person.
Let's make amends.
Look what I brought you!
What the fuck is this?
I want what's on your feet!
Why? This one's beautiful too.
Very expensive shoes. Look.
If it's beautiful, you wear it.
All right? Take this.
Give me my grandfather's shoes.
I can't, Mr. Mumtaz, I told you!
These are my grandpa's shoes too.
I know how to get it from you, Mr. Onur.
Get out.
You never accept any presents.
Still going on about presents?
Get out! Take that with you.
Sorry for this kid.
Now him, after Ahmet?
Why are you walking him around like a dog?
Let him go like the others.
What kind of analogy is that?
Look, Mr. Talat is upset.
Girl, how can you say
such things to a child's face?
Mr. Talat is my friend!
Don't be ridiculous.
What do you say about my mukhtar look?
It's beautiful. I like it.
But no one agrees, Onur.
My uncle is stubborn, too.
He wanted me to find a job, I did.
I got a salary too.
The money's coming in slowly.
There are side revenues.
I'm building a basketball hoop
for you at our school.
Right?
I've got a car, I've got employees.
What is this?
What's this?
Residence document.
They're coming to ask for me tonight.
My uncle will let me go this time.
So, you have to do something.
Except stabbing.
Okay, I got it.
I won't give you to anyone.
Eymen, can you turn the music down a bit?
Brother Eymen, I lost my only uncle.
People respect you because they
don't know what you're talking about.
I'm not asking for a girl, Onur.
Especially not Keriman for you.
Especially me, huh, brother Eymen?
He doesn't want to give you his nephew.
He does, he just doesn't show it,
don't mind him.
He kicked you out of the house
saying, "Fuck you!"
He hides it pretty well, then.
Someone will ask for the girl today.
We need to do something about it!
Onur, I have never seen anyone
stand in the way of destiny.
Of course not, how could you?
You were in prison for 20 years.
Get out of the way.
Kerim. How's your leg, is it okay?
Ok, slight cut, 1,5 centimeters.
- Nothing permanent.
- I'm good at what I do.
That's how much you made today, buddy.
It's only good
for the day-to-day business.
We don't have the authority
like the municipality.
We need to take concrete steps.
I need to get that two hoops built
before next week.
So that the neighborhood
can see our power.
I'll find the money.
Those hoops are gonna get built.
- Give me that money.
- Take it.
Are you handing money to a thief?
Trust me, there's no safer place, Kerim.
I'm outta here.
I can do my job and find the money.
Shall we go out, Hale?
Why?
We'll get a beer
or something before it's too late.
- Beer is good.
- Kerim, you come with me.
We have some work to do, then you can go.
We're going to ask for Keriman
in two hours.
- Hurry up.
- What nonsense!
What a nonsense!
Man.
Kerim should open up to that girl.
That girl is really annoying!
She's making me mad!
When will I get married?
We tried our hand with
all the single girls for you Serkan.
- They won't give anyone to you.
- Let's check another neighborhood.
Let's sort our troubles first.
I'll take you to a brothel.
You won't want to get
married for six months.
Ahmet, why don't you leave?
Brother.
I'd rather stay as your closest brother.
No. Mr. Talat is here. Go on.
Make preparations, son.
We'll ask for Keriman again tonight.
Move it.
I'll take a nap for half an hour.
I'm so tired.
Mr. Talat
Go and grab two beers
from the liquor store.
Ice cold. Helps me sleep.
- The neighborhood is a mess, Mr. Onur.
- Great! Let's go.
Kamil, go!
Mr. Talat, wait.
Get out of the way.
Don't move.
Give me the money quickly.
Guys, okay, calm down!
I've emptied it! What more can I give?
Take 20 packs of cigarettes.
This is a huge store!
Did you make 700 liras since morning?
I swear I'll shoot you in the head.
We just received a shipment.
I gave all the money. I'm an idiot!
It's not worth it. Let it go.
Stay out of this, man!
You shut the fuck up!
Stay out of this, Onur.
Look what they've done to Musa.
They didn't even touch him.
They hit him with sticks.
- Is he dead?
- Not dead.
He plays dead so they won't beat him more.
I'm Onur Mukhtar.
I don't want to interfere
but if you take this 700 liras
Recep will report us to the police.
There are cameras everywhere.
Two minutes later the police
will come and pick you up.
I won't complain. He's lying.
Well, someone else will.
A lot of people have seen this.
So if you wanted to kill us now,
for 700 liras, what sense does it make
to kill three people?
People will label you.
They'll point fingers on the streets.
They'll stick
a tin can in your ass in jail.
We commit crimes too, but reasonable ones.
- Be a little modern.
- So?
So, leave the money and get out.
We didn't see each other.
He's smart. He's right.
It makes sense.
Come work with us if you want.
You're a smart guy. You learn fast.
I got into a legal mess.
If I can get back to illegal stuff,
I'll find you.
- Yes. Call us. We'll wait.
- Come on.
Well done.
Well done.
Well done!
That's what the neighborhood means.
I'll take a bullet
for a person I don't even know.
Bravo!
Not a single person says
"Musa is on the ground. They beat him.
I'll call an ambulance."
I'll eat your cute little moustache!
Go inside.
Lay down there.
Don't come here.
Now, you'll accept me as mukhtar then?
Don't get ahead of yourself Onur.
What? I risked my life!
Then everyone can become the mukhtar.
Is it really that easy?
What's going on?
Mr. Onur We must leave. There's trouble.
What happened again, Mr. Talat?
We're pressed for time,
we've got a lot of work to do.
- We have to hurry.
- Go.
Don't fuck around. Spread your feet.
What the fuck are you doing?
I'm doing my job. Don't interrupt me.
How can you frisk people?
Are you crazy? What if they
complain to the police?
They won't. Look what I've found on him.
What the fuck is this?
He was listening to Norm Ender?
I'm surprised too, buddy.
But we got a lot of stuff.
They'll make money very fast.
Kerim. Come here.
Yes, buddy?
Someone is cheerful.
Did you open up to her?
I'm waiting for the right time, buddy.
Need to make sure she can't say no.
Then all the men
and male animals need to die.
I think we should leave Mr. Onur.
The police may throw
Serkan and Kerim in prison.
Why us? Aren't we a team?
You needed Mr. Onur's approval first.
We have nothing to do with this.
Mr. Talat is right.
Come on, let's pack up now.
Let's go tie up some loose ends.
Come on, let's go.
Are you retarded? Knock!
You're so quick to fall for anything.
Onur!
Go!
Easy!
Come on!
Place it here.
Yes, Mr. Namik, hi.
How are you, sir?
First of all,
congratulations on my mukhtarship.
Coffee please, Hale.
I brought you Turkish coffee.
Since you won't serve me.
Mr. Talat. It's beneath you, but please.
I had it specially designed.
Mukhtar's lighter and residence paper.
I only give them to my loved ones.
If I'm your nephew,
and you have this lighter, all doors open.
Mr. Talat, get them back please.
As I said, only my loved ones.
I'm his loved one.
Did you get your hair done? You weasel!
You're a baldy when it comes to us.
Mr. Mumtaz. So you want Keriman!
Why are you so surprised, Mukhtar?
You still walk around with those shoes on.
- Who are they, son?
- Never mind, Mom.
We're here for something nice.
Mr. Mumtaz, how long have you
had a crush on Keriman?
Can you come out for a minute?
I won't, one moment.
How long, Mr. Mumtaz?
About a week, Mr. Onur. Is it alright?
I've been in love for a year.
I did some research.
Ayhan had a crush for three years.
- Ayhan?
- Who is Ayhan?
Ayhan, come out.
Wow, Keriman.
Is this really us Keriman?
Keriman, what's going on? Who are they?
Uncle, let's talk later, okay?
No need to get angry. We're leaving.
Congratulations.
You're getting a lovely bride!
Come on, out!
Get out of my fucking house.
Get the fuck out!
Keriman, if you want to meet again
despite everything that happened, I'm in.
Get the fuck out.
Fuck this! Mom, are you okay?
- She fainted!
- Mother.
Cheers!
Hey! Get the fuck out of there!
- Okay!
- Go.
He's a real pain in the ass!
Find him a friend or something.
He hovers around us like an owl.
Look at that asshole Mumtaz.
He has a job, a salary.
He has insurance.
Tall, well-built.
More knowledgeable than you.
He came to ask for my sister,
because of his charisma.
What an asshole!
Asshole.
What an asshole.
All this for a pair of shoes?
Mr. Onur.
What am I going to
get out of this, anyway?
Isn't my care enough?
It is, Mr. Onur.
Thank you, Mr. Talat.
You give me confidence.
Thank you, Mr. Onur. You too.
- Will you call me Mister again?
- I always do, Mr. Onur.
It's a great feeling.
I'm so happy without doing anything.
Mr. Talat,
call me Mister forever, brother.
Are we getting wasted here
so you can feel good?
No, dear.
If I feel good, I can make you feel good.
For God's sake, Onur!
How can we feel good?
We are drifting from place to place.
Really? So, that's how it is.
So, friends. Who agrees with Hale?
Everybody thinks wrong. I'm right.
Let's go get some rest. We're tired.
Mr. Talat. What did we
plant on that empty plot?
44 roots of cannabis.
Zade District, Gur Street. Vacant land.
Understood.
I'm really sorry Mr. Mumtaz.
You were lucky.
Are you joking, mukhtar?
Can't you see her?
What the hell did you do? She's paralyzed.
You didn't pay enough alms.
She could've talked if you did.
Look at my uncle. His eyes are open.
Her eyes are closed, too. I don't know.
Let's go out, mukhtar. Let's have a talk.
Fine.
See you, uncle's wife.
Look. I know you stole
the seat from the previous mukhtar.
How can you say that Mr. Mumtaz?
I inherited it.
Of course, the neighborhood insisted too.
Stop it.
You were having an affair with Keriman.
You did that on purpose, didn't you?
Mr. Mumtaz, when I was little, my parents
went to Germany to work as laborers.
They were planning to take me
with them later on.
But they died in a train accident,
I was left to this neighborhood.
Otherwise, I would want a good job,
have a good life too.
Shut up!
Don't get all friendly!
You're fucked, Mr. Onur.
Let me speak clearly to you.
I called the district governor
and he's on his way.
He will fuck you out of that seat soon.
All neighborhood knows
you stole that seat.
- They won't sell me out.
- We'll see about that.
We will see if they sell you or not.
Look! I'll cut you in half right here.
Who gave you courage?
I don't know why
you made a move for Keriman.
But next time I won't spare you.
Mukhtar Onur goes, Nemlizade Onur comes.
I'll be your shadow.
My Grandpa Kazim raised me!
- My grandpa Kazim raised me too.
- The fuck he did!
I know you stole those shoes.
I'll take them from you.
I'll take Keriman too.
Just for the hell of it.
The hell you will!
You're on your last legs
in that chair, Mukhtar. Enjoy it.
Let's get this repaired, Mr. Talat.
This Mumtaz is going to be a problem,
Mr. Onur.
If the district governor comes,
we're screwed, he'll take our jobs.
Let's move very fast
and prove ourselves to the neighborhood.
I will speed up school development.
And Keriman will like it.
Exactly, Mr. Onur.
Don't call me Mister.
It doesn't suit you. Call me brother.
Idiot Serkan.
It wouldn't have come to this
if he didn't show the shoes.
Kamil, is my mustache proper?
Okay.
So, my dear neighborhood!
The narrow research I did
pointed out to me that this school
was the source of the problem.
I said I will improve
our school for future generations
and there you have it,
I got it up and running!
Yeah, we're about a month late.
I was expecting money, it didn't work out.
But one more step, albeit a belated one.
Here are two basketball hoops
for our school.
What are those faces?
Aren't you ever happy?
I've served this neighborhood for so long.
Are you my enemies?
You can't live with this much jealousy!
You will never be
a wealthy person like me.
It's all this jealousy.
I have an Ottoman-Czechoslovak rosary.
Akgerdan Master Rosary.
Everyone is curious about it.
But no one of you said,
"Oh, what a beautiful rosary you have!"
None of you are interested?
Do you ignore me?
Why the fuck are you doing this to me?
Show my fucking Serkan boots.
Take a look.
Have you ever seen such boots?
Special design, cowboy boots.
Are you not interested even a little bit?
Not one person said,
"Such nice boots you have!"
Okay, maybe you didn't like them.
But no one of you said,
"Those are some terrible boots!"
Why do you ignore me?
Am I not here?
Jealous dogs! Fuck your mother!
Yes.
We are grateful for the financial support
we have received from brother Serkan.
Good luck to everyone in advance
Yes, I wish my continued success.
"Me!"
Sorry, wish me continued success.
Mr. Talat, let's take
one of these hoops across.
And it is not over!
Despite that face of yours, today
I'm handing out green cards to the poor.
Bravo!
What a bunch of sons of bitches.
It's like I stole their stuff.
I'm gonna fuck that Selcuk, too.
He is waiting.
Ready to hop in! Hop in!
You are the poorest 10 people.
The green card costs
10k liras on the market.
There's also social aid package
for 3k liras.
But that's for me.
So for 7k liras,
I can get you a green card.
If you think that you can't pay
there are other poor people
waiting in line with 7k liras.
The previous mukhtar
gave the green card for free.
I'm here! Let's get here eyes done.
That's what we thought, madame.
But actually that's not true.
If today they call me
the Ricky Gervais of mukhtars
But they don't.
Fine.
Get out of the way.
What was he going to tell?
Why do you interrupt him?
You're a crusher of dreams,
you're a fucking dog!
Kamil, come here.
Come on.
Should I stab this Ahmet
in three places, Kamil?
He'll be hospitalized for two months,
we'll be happy.
I've had enough.
It would be a change for all of us.
Mr. Principal, welcome!
Here, I will issue you
a green card and social aid.
No, thanks, Onur.
I need to talk to you about something.
Have a seat, please.
After your investments,
the best teachers in the city
wanted to transfer to our school.
- That's good.
- Yes, they are here.
The school became valuable.
Everyone wants to enroll their children,
but there isn't enough space.
They will want to move
their residency here.
Watch out for them.
I've got this, Mr. Principal.
I will do the best for our neighborhood.
- I trust you, Onur.
- I trust myself too.
Come Kamil.
Yes, let's clear out, poor people.
Come on out.
Let's go!
We'll talk again. Come on.
Look here, let me see. What is it?
You can't even talk? What happened to you?
Are they feeding you chocolate?
What have you become?
What are people going through?
Get out of the way! Get up!
I went out for 15 seconds,
and you stole my seat?
I can't even turn around?
What is this love for the seat?
So.
Our services to the school
have yielded results.
Everybody wants to take their
children to our school.
Mr. Talat let's identify
the poor students in the school,
relocate their residence to Fikirtepe.
Let's organize a shuttle for them.
Make room in the school.
Then we can rip off the parents
of these rich students.
We can sell residency papers
for 150k liras per student.
- You're very smart, Mr. Onur.
- You're great, brother.
Then, let's continue to serve
the neighborhood with the money.
I see you've rooted in that chair.
Tomorrow,
I'll get you out of there for good.
Those shoes will cost you a lot, mukhtar.
You're all on my radar.
You showed him the shoes,
you fucking happy now?
Am I to fucking blame now?
You took the shoes from me.
He didn't come here for the shoes.
We wouldn't even know him,
if you didn't steal the seat.
It's all because of your
unnecessary outbursts.
- Give me the shoes back.
- No. These are Grandpa Kazim's shoes.
- Kazim is not your grandpa!
- But I told him that he is!
Should I say that he isn't now?
They'll call me mad.
They'll put me in a mental hospital.
I'll be dismissed Serkan.
This is way beyond my Grandpa Kazim.
Let's silence the neighborhood.
District Governor is coming.
We have served so much.
Fuck your grandpa Kazim.
- Stop talking shit about my grandpa.
- You don't have a grandpa!
- Kazim is my grandpa!
- No, he isn't!
- Yes!
- No!
- No!
- Kazim is my Grandpa!
Be respectful!
No one will shit talk my Grandpa Kazim.
Come on, Kamil.
Musa, the king of Ping-Pong.
I heard you gave Mehmet a trashing
at the Ping-Pong table I bought?
You didn't pay for it,
and you're showing off.
Who knows where you got
the money to do all that.
How well these accusations suit you.
The district governor is coming.
If he asks about me,
put in a good word for me, will you?
I won't.
Why, I don't do my job? I do!
You stole that seat, Onur.
Anyone else
would have done their job anyway.
Fine, betray your neighborhood.
- Shall I fuck this place up?
- It's not worth it.
My brother Recep, the king of basketball.
I heard you gave Musa a trashing
at the basketball hoops I built!
Don't waste your time, Onur!
You stole that seat!
I'll never borrow anything from you again.
I'll go to another store if I have to.
Let's go.
- Brother Mehmet, the king of beer.
- Just leave, Onur.
Ali Riza?
Onur.
Brother, my wife is really sick.
Let me help her,
come back and we'll talk later, okay?
Is she okay?!
Come back later, brother!
Ahmet, make sure you come by.
Calm down, girl!
Ahmet.
Okay.
Sister?
- Pray for us, the district governor
- Musa called, I know.
We'll tell him the truth.
Your whole life is a lie,
but when it comes to me,
tell him the truth, okay? God!
I've done something good at least.
The neighborhood's united!
Give it here.
What did you expect?
Just because you built two hoops,
they'll make you the king?
- Yes.
- You're a piece of work.
Kerim. Open up to her.
She vomits her sexlessness all over us.
It's not time yet, dude.
We need to talk about this
district governor business, Mr. Onur.
I'll fix it, brother.
Serkan, we need money, asap.
You were mad at me just now.
This is urgent Serkan, we'll fight later.
If it's urgent, relax, dude.
I'm gambling tonight.
He'll lose every penny
we have in gambling.
I won't, Kerim, relax. I got this.
That's it!
That's it!
- Is this haram money?
- It is!
Even if you won't help me marry,
I've got you covered, brother.
Okay, man, I'll sort it out.
Let me get rid of all these worries first.
I'll help you marry, okay!
You've been worried
for as long as I've known you, though.
Ahmet.
I am who you want to be.
Okay, brother.
Oh, sir, what an honor!
Why did you bother, Mr. District Governor?
We would've come to you,
if you needed anything.
Fine, get three breads of doner
and bring them to me.
I'll send them with Ahmet, then.
I'm just joking. Who is Ahmet?
He is Ahmet.
No, I mean, is he even worthy
of bringing doner to me?
You can bring it to me later.
Are you Onur?
There are many Onurs on the market,
but I'm the most useful, Sir.
I'm also the person Ahmet wants to be.
Let's go to the office
for a cup of coffee.
No, there are allegations against you.
I will visit the neighborhood.
Of course, Sir!
Take off your shoes
and make yourself comfortable.
- I just had the neighborhood washed.
- What is this?
He is making a documentary
about the neighborhood.
He documents our actions at work.
People may accuse me with not working.
Make sure we look good.
What are you saying?
- He's a very good guy.
- Come on.
Thanks, I don't shake hands.
There are germs.
Long live the mukhtar!
- Thanks!
- Thank you!
- Okay.
- Welcome, Onur Mukhtar!
We're so happy! Welcome!
We haven't done anything yet.
- We're just beginning.
- Thanks to you, we sleep well at night.
Thank you, my sister.
Let go, sister, come on!
Onur Mukhtar, well done,
for a strong tomorrow!
- We didn't do anything.
- Bravo, mukhtar!
Thank you, but we haven't done anything.
This neighborhood belongs to all of us.
This is our homeland!
This nation is ours.
Onur Mukhtar!
Welcome. What would you like?
Thank you, brother.
Mr. District Governor is here.
We show him around.
Mr. District Governor, welcome.
Thank God the previous mukhtar
had an accident and ended up
in a vegetative state.
A chance was born for Onur,
for our neighborhood.
- May God keep him with us.
- Amen, brother. Thank you.
Mr. District Governor, a beer on me?
Do you drink?
I thought I'd make a joke.
Thank you, brother. Let's go.
Onur Mukhtar.
You remember the citizen
whose debts were paid by you?
He decided not to commit suicide,
he got a job.
He's getting married, thanks to you.
How nice!
This is how it works from now on!
No one will drink beer,
while their neighbor is hungry.
May I offer you tea?
Mr. District Governor,
would you like tea or coffee?
If I wanted to drink, I'd drink!
Can't you see I'm on duty?
As if he's buying me dinner.
Screw your tea!
Sir, since we're at a coffee shop
I'm kidding, son.
Just kidding. You're great!
Mukhtar Onur. I'm proud of you.
We were just passing by anyway.
I hope we can have
a longer conversation another time.
We'll drink your tea and coffee then.
We would like to get to know you
individually if we get the chance.
Sir, it's not worthy of you, but
A specially designed mukhtar's lighter.
I only give it to people close to me.
And cowboy's boots.
A symbol of my neighborhood.
I got a pair, too.
Grandpa Kazim left them to me.
There's a K here. I can't give it to you.
- But that will suit you.
- I can't accept gifts.
I can't accept gifts.
You're always welcome,
Mr. District Governor.
You are also welcome, Mr. Mumtaz.
We don't pay attention to
what the people say about you.
Even if you're hitting on wives
and daughters of the people.
Everyone who is with Mr. District Governor
is honorable and upright for us.
Otherwise, Sir, who cares
if the world calls you dishonest?
Come with me, Mumtaz.
- Sir, believe me, it's not like that.
- Shut up!
You were going to get me fired up
and throw Onur out of his seat, huh?
You were going to turn
the neighborhood against me.
I know you have eyes on my place, son.
- That's not why this time.
- Shush!
Don't say another word,
I know what I'll do to you.
We're gonna talk, okay? Come on.
Later. We'll talk, we'll see each other.
Mumtaz.
My name is Onur.
I've given 38 years to this neighborhood.
That's how I call out a rat.
We'll call you Mumtaz the Rat from now on.
Now, get the fuck out.
Yes, my dear neighborhood.
Come out, you are free.
Run to your shops,
run to your cash registers.
Run for free days.
I'm not even a shopkeeper.
Why did you lock me up?
Maybe you'll risk death
and report us or something.
Shut up! I'll never go near you again.
You won't get away with this, Onur.
There's an election in a month.
You'll be removed!
Who will be my great rival then?
It doesn't matter to us, Onur.
If it's a dog against you,
I'll vote for the dog.
Go, find your candidate and come back!
We will find our candidate
and do whatever it takes. You'll see.
It's great that you moved
to our neighborhood, Hale.
It's been a year since I came here.
What are you on about?
I just wanted to get to the point.
Just to talk to you.
Kerim, you always make such
unnecessary intros to talk to me.
Don't, okay? I'm a laid-back woman,
you make me nervous.
You're just like me, I swear.
I am so I'm such a laid-back guy
Hale!
- Damn!
- Help me.
- Help me.
- Did you just launch yourself?
I didn't, I fell.
Fuck off, Kerim!
I saw you, you came up to me!
- You'll fall, if I let go.
- I didn't realize how dangerous it was.
- Hale, you're worth it!
- I'm worth it?
What the fuck does
that have to do with anything?
- Help us!
- Hale, I love you.
Shut up, Kerim, shut up!
Hale, I love you.
Will you go out with me?
Is now the time?
Hale, either say yes or let me fall.
Hale, will you go out with me?
No.
Then let go.
I'm sorry. I can't ruin my life
so that you don't die.
Hit it, hit it!
Stop repeating those words!
I get carried away.
- It makes me feel tingly.
- Why, brother?
Ahmet, my wife went to her mother,
she's out of town.
It reminds me of her.
It must be really hard for you, Ali Riza.
It is, brother.
It's really hard.
I'm fighting with my body.
I can't control myself,
can't hold myself back.
You're the most knowledgeable of us, Onur.
Tell me.
This lust, this desire,
this passion Am I to blame?
Ali Riza, stop. For God's sake.
I've got a thousand troubles already!
To asshole Mumtaz.
Let's bang for Mumtaz.
- Where is Talat?
- He crawled into a hole probably.
Shut up, you dog!
He won't go in any hole.
He's an important person.
Kerim was right. Ahmet is an actual dog!
I can't fucking stand it anymore.
Either you marry me, or I'm out.
- What do you mean?
- This team is nothing.
Enough is enough.
You're all in a good mood.
Look at Kerim. He got Hale.
You always ignore my wishes.
I ignore you? There is no one available!
- Are we supposed to kidnap them?
- Let's!
So what?
Serkan, look, I just got out of troubles.
I'm relaxed. Does this really necessary?
You'll find someone, for sure.
Easy for you to say.
What did you say?
Say it out loud. What did you say?
Tell me, what did you say?
Hello, brothers.
What's going on, brother?
What happened to you?
I got it. Did Hale say no?
She didn't even care if I died.
I wouldn't date her even if she begged.
It was obvious. She has been
a creep ever since she arrived.
She's a filthy woman.
Is that so, Mr. Onur?
Look at me.
Take this maniac with you,
and shove your mukhtarship up your ass.
Get the fuck out of my life.
She took me to the hospital.
She may come in any minute now,
speak carefully.
- Fuck your brain, man.
- What did I do?
You've ruined our beautiful night.
Not yet, Onur.
You'll pay for what you've done.
Enough of this selfishness.
- What selfishness? Screw you!
- They are right, brother.
You're dragging all of us along with you,
because of your love for the seat.
We're not worth as much as Talat for you.
Wow! You idiot!
I don't normally need any of you!
I'm dragging you with me as a favor.
Mukhtarship, and Talat is enough for me.
There'll be elections in a month, Onur.
I wouldn't vote for you
even if you busted your ass.
Forget the mukhtar's office!
Who are you voting for, man?
There aren't even candidates!
Show me, who is my rival?
- Who do you trust?
- Mr. Talat.
Mr. Talat.
Why are you with the enemy? Come here.
Mr. Talat is not on the side of the enemy.
He stands against it.
Mr. Talat is our new candidate Onur.
The neighborhood loves him thanks to you.
Thanks to you.
We're very happy about
Mr. Talat's candidacy.
- Mr. Talat wouldn't do that.
- But he did.
We're very happy.
Thanks to you, he learned the job.
Thanks for finding such a young
and smart candidate for us, Onur.
Thank you.
Mr. Talat, is this true?
Tell them, Mr. Talat. Let's put on a show!
I'll be like Uncle Ramiz. Put on airs!
You're still thinking about yourself.
- Talat shut up.
- I'm the new mukhtar, son.
We've got one life.
You think we'll dedicate it to you?
Talat, this must be a joke.
You use everyone around you like a slave.
You're a selfish, greedy, cunning man.
You deserve worse. Let's go.
Ahmet, Serkan. You misunderstood me, man.
It's because of the alcohol,
I got ahead of myself.
Please. I swear.
You'd better come to your senses, Onur.
You fucked up all our fun, man.
Brother, it's over.
I got stabbed in the back, Brother Eymen.
My friends took my life away.
Why don't you talk, brother?
I've never talked to you, Onur.
Stop this fancy talk.
Say "you're right" for once,
without question.
Tell me that I'm right, I'm your brother,
ask me what's wrong!
What's wrong, brother?
Talat is running for mukhtar.
I trusted him, I called him Mister!
I made him my chief advisor.
- You know what he said to me?
- What?
"You are a selfish, greedy, cunning man."
"You deserve worse!"
He's right.
What do you mean?
Do you agree with him?
You're Talat, Onur.
Those are your words.
Everything around you is you.
When will you realize?
When the lion saw himself in the well
he could not separate himself
from the enemy.
He thought himself as the enemy.
Desperately he drew his sword.
Many atrocities that you see in others
are your habits in them.
O, so-and-so!
Your presence is reflected in them
out of discord, oppression
and evil intoxication.
It's you.
And you're hitting yourself.
You weave that damn web over yourself.
You don't see the evil in yourself.
Otherwise you would be
your own worst enemy.
O, pure man!
You're attacking yourself.
Like that lion attacking itself.
When you know that it's your temper
then you'll know that dishonor is on you.
The lion found out
at the bottom of the well
that what appears to be someone else
was its own form.
Stop filming.
The lion found out
at the bottom of the well
that what appears to be someone else
was its own form.
We haven't done anything yet.
Brother! Here, let me help you.
- Your back hurts.
- Why, thank you, Onur.
You'll get me a beer tonight,
I helped you so much.
Thank you, Onur, fine.
Brother Musa!
Wait, I'll carry it.
- Let me. I got it.
- Thanks.
But I'll come at noon
to eat a toast from you.
- I can't live without your toast.
- I know, Onur.
Brother Mehmet!
Only one sugar, the way you like.
Thank you, Onur.
Thank you.
Teacher.
Let me kiss your hand, teacher.
- I really want to.
- Teacher?
- Yes, Teacher!
- God!
Aren't you my teacher?
I'm at my usual place, people.
Your man Onur is at his usual spot.
If you need anything, you come to me.
What about the mukhtarship?
I'm your brother.
I don't know about that stuff.
I'll vote for Mr. Talat.
He's a smart man. Let him run things.
Ado. Come here. Come to our corner.
Come on.
Come here, man. Don't be shy.
Come on.
Look at this beauty. Come here.
Brother. What's up?
What's up, Ahmet?
We're in our corner, as usual.
What about Mr. Talat?
What do we care about Talat, Mr. Ahmet?
Where the fuck are the shoes?
Mumtaz stole them.
So, where did you get those?
I paid a visit to people
from the next neighborhood.
Those cowboy shoes
looked good on you, brother.
- Let's get the most beautiful one for you.
- You know what's the best, Kerim?
- What?
- To be together.
Look what we have here.
Here, buddy.
Bro, I'd never wear cowboy shoes again.
They'll look good on you.
Especially when asking for that girl.
Who's getting married, brother?
Serkan and Sevcan.
- Really?
- Really.
What if they don't agree?
If they don't, we'll ask for someone else.
Hale and I are going to try to be
just friends again.
What do I do? He wants to try something.
Let's go.
Let the poor collect them.
Leave it there.
- Maybe I should get the cowboy boots.
- Brother Eymen!
Onur!
Brother, the lion is the one
who defeats himself!
Would you like some old-school rosary
with a countersunk locking system?
- Designed for the poor.
- Yes, please.
- Elliptic beads?
- But of course!
Alright.
Ahmet.
Get flowers and chocolates.
Hold on Kamil.
Take a photo of us under the sign.
Good? You guys come, too!
Wait, we'll do it together, Kamil.
All together, come on.
Come on! Gather around.
Get a good shot,
or I'll break your camera. You got it?
Thank you.
Take your hand away.
Will you ever achieve anything?
I don't know, Keriman,
but I know I want you.
Anyway, don't worry.
The street is yours, my love.
That's right.
What's up, Mukhtar?
I gave up all that stuff, I chose peace.
I quit too, what a coincidence!
Is there a place for me on the team?
We're not like you.
You wouldn't know that Onur.
Can I call you Onur?
I almost became the district governor.
You confronted me, and ruined me.
It looks like we will hang out
as a team from now on.
I'm sorry we ruined your life.
You're damn right, pink brother.
I swear, I've been trying to
get that man off his feet.
I was just about to take his place,
and then you show up.
This is my life now.
It looks like we'll stick together.
Fine. Come hang out with us.
You're educated, you'll be useful to us.
I have a plan, regarding this matter.
Well, I've examined your team.
I think you're missing a cop.
Support me for a year,
let me become a cop.
I'll study for the exams.
Then I can become the chief of police.
What do you say? Istanbul will be ours.
You talk nonsense,
and I'm blinded by your bullshit.
- Just come and hang out.
- Alright.
Who will be the mukhtar then?
Talat?
What do I care? Whoever deserves it.
You're a king, Mr. Onur.
You too, Mr. Mumtaz.
Rasim?
My Rasim! Thank God! He's awake!
What happened to the office?
Someone is looking after it,
just be good, Rasim.
No one can take over the mukhtar's office!
Rasim, stop, calm down!
- Doctor!
- I'll fuck them up!
Doctor, nurse!
