Sayara (2024) Movie Script

1
Based on true stories...
Istanbul, Turkey - Present Day
Son of a whore...
What is it?
"A man from Istanbul has been
charged with battery...
...for assaulting his fiancee
a month before their wedding...
...on the grounds that she was
wearing tight tracksuits in public.
The series of unfortunate
events continued.
After some time, the young man...
...came to his ex-fiancee's
office and offered to make up.
When he was turned down
by the young woman...
...he rained bullets on the place,
with his father's pistol."
Son of a whore...
A classic son of a whore, alright.
A funny phrase to say, isn't it?
-Such a mouthful pronunciation.
-What?
"Son of a whore".
Puffing your cheeks and
puckering your mouth in a "O" shape.
A satisfactory
pronunciation.
Yeah. I love saying it too.
Good morning, Mr. Baris!
-Good morning Mr. Baris, welcome!
-Good morning guys.
-How are you all doing?
-Great.
-Take it easy.
-See you later. Take care.
What's up?
-Hello.
-We're good. How are you?
Not much.
Welcome.
-It's so hot.
-Your hair looks great.
Later.
Sayara.
Hello, how are you?
I didn't see you all day.
Thank you.
Hey Sayara, well, I've been
meaning to talk to you.
You see...
We have plenty of female customers.
More than our male clients in fact.
And there is a strong
demand for these self-defense...
...lessons from our
female customers, lately.
But our teachers are generally...
...more like PT types you know.
Well, I've been thinking
to myself for a while.
Then it hit me; how about Sayara?
How do you mean?
Your sister told me
a little bit about you.
My sister?
What did she say?
That back in the day...
...in school in Turkmenistan
nobody could mess with you.
She says you won a lot
of tournaments when you were younger.
You never mentioned that to me.
Well. I'm not going to lie...
Look...
...I did check the
security camera a couple of times...
I mean, your early
morning exercises are so slick.
You move proper
like a martial artist.
Come, be an instructor here.
Anyone can mop the floor, right?
I mean...
You don't need to
take off your scarf or anything.
If it's the problem for you...
No, it's not about that.
Well...
-I promised my father.
-Excuse me?
I gave my word to
my father. I promised.
For what?
That I will never use
what I learned from him.
Gee.
Why is that?
But I'm not asking
you to use your skills on anyone.
I'm asking if you could teach.
To those who need
it, to those who demand it...
To teach. You know?
-See you later, teacher.
-See you later.
-Later, sir.
-Later.
Alright. Well...
No point to force it
if you don't want to...
I just thought you might
be bored of cleaning the floors here.
But never mind.
Maybe we talk again another time.
Cool?
Good evening.
Mr. Baris!
Yes?
Good evening.
Come on.
I came to pick you up.
You have the key too?
Yeah. I do.
Why?
What do you mean why?
Well. You are not working here.
Girl, didn't I find you this job?
-So?
-So?
We are very close with Baris.
He trusts me. He gave me the key.
But why? What is it that you do here?
Sayara. What is it?
Are you in a bad mood, as usual?
Why are you upset? What is it?
Why did you tell Baris
about our father?
Sayara!
You told him alright.
Look.
I thought I'd be helpful.
I just thought you could do
what you love the most and be happy.
That's all there's to it.
Instead of sweeping the floor
all day there...
I know I'm not
the perfect big sister.
Come on, don't
start that now. Please.
Well, not that, but...
Really...
Okay, okay, I shut up.
Never mind.
What is it?
What's this?
Sayara, I forgot
something in the gym.
-I'll be right back.
-Sister!
Wait.
Sister, I said!
Sayara, I just need to pick
up something I forgot. I said. Wait.
Are you a psycho?
Watch your tone with your elder sister!
Are you a psycho, sister?
Everyone in the gym
is talking about you. Are you aware?
You see what you put us through?
I told you to let go
of my arm, Sayara! Let it go!
What the fuck?
Yonca?
You whore!
-Yonca stop!
-Look at me!
-Look at me, I said!
-What are you doing!
-What are you doing!
-Let me see your face!
-What are you doing!
-Come on! Let me see that face.
-Let me go!
-God damned, let her go!
Gl!
Are you okay? Let me see your face!
Let me see your face, I said!
You broke her nose, you psycho bitch!
Have you no shame to fuck
a married man with kids? You slut!
Hey, Yonca!
Enough! God damned, I kill you!
Calm down!
Enough! For fuck's sake!
Gl...
What kind of maniac are you?
You became a psychopath.
Just
because we fucked a couple times?
How many times did this happen?
How many times did this happen?
People talk about us, you cunt!
Don't you have no pride?
No self respect?
Didn't I tell you from the start?
I said I have a family.
I said there can't be anything
between us, we can't be lovers.
My wife isn't jealous of me, who
the fuck are you to spy on me, bitch?
Because your wife doesn't
know what kind of man you are.
Look...
Don't you call me or text me no more.
Do not come to this gym.
Do you understand me?
Get the fuck out of here!
Ok. I'll go.
And then what will you do?
Can you be as rough
with the other girls...
...you're fucking,
as you get with me?
Shut up! Shut up!
Do other girls allow
you to beat them like I do?
Erase my number from your phone.
Leave the keys to the gym.
And get the fuck out of my life.
Don't you ever
ask me for a penny again. Understood?
Don't you dare...
Yeah?
What? What are you going to do?
What are you going to do bitch?
What are you going to do?
I'll send your wife our videos.
I swear to God,
if you do such a thing...
...I will kill you, Yonca.
Cross my heart, I will kill you.
And I will tell my father too.
We call it a suicide.
No one can do nothing...
I'll send your mother
and your sister back. Deport them.
They can eat shit for all I care.
You understand?
What are you crying
for, you psychopath?
Dear God,
what have I got myself into!
God damned bitch.
Yes, it's my fault. It's my fault.
I sheltered you all this time.
It's my fault.
What are you doing?
OK, I apologize.
Let's make up.
Come on, fuck you, Yonca.
I'm really sorry Baris... Please.
Please, what?
Let's make up.
Are you a maniac, girl?
Yes. I am! You didn't know?
You broke the girl's nose, Yonca.
Ok, I'm sorry about that too.
You're sorry? She's going to
talk now. She'll tell it to everyone!
Okay...
Punish me then.
What?
Punish me.
As always.
Beat me harder.
Whip me. Make me cry.
Break my arm, break
my leg. Beat me up.
Sister...
Come on sister, we're going.
See you tomorrow Baris.
I'm really sorry for tonight.
I lost myself for a moment.
I love you.
Why the fuck do you mess with such
a psycho bitch in the first place, son?
Giving her the office keys and all...
What are you doing with her kind?
He's addicted to her,
bro. He can't let go.
She is his heroin now.
How can't you let her go man?
Are you pussywhipped?
I think we should
invite this Yonca to my place.
Tonight.
The building's empty too.
Upstairs, next door, no neighbours.
Then we'll dump her to
the hospital in the morning, man.
Emin Abi?
Are you in?
Bro. Don't be ridiculous.
Shut it fool.
Who are you to tell me what to do?
If it'd be helpful for our brother...
Why not?
How can we get her?
I'm telling you bro.
Let Baris text her, then see...
Let him call and invite her.
She would even get a
taxi all the way to Bursa, man.
It's Nur.
Yes?
I'm busy.
She will take
a picture with you.
Bro.
Come on man, get up.
Come on sister, come on.
-Hello, Mr. Deniz.
-Hi there.
I love your new series on Netflix.
-Thanks.
-Can we take a picture, please?
Yes, sure.
-Okay. Thanks.
-Thank you. Thank you so much.
Bro are you crazy letting in a woman
taking photos while we do this shit?
Shut the fuck up, son. It's my place
I'll do whatever I want.
-Hot shot.
-Not cool.
Come on, it's your turn.
You're not in your Netflix
caravan here, bitch.
Watch your tone with me,
or I'll fuck your mother too.
Easy!
-Yeah, yeah.
-Easy.
Go on!
Sister, what are you doing?
-I'm going out.
-You're going out?
-It's 2am.
-Baris sent a taxi.
Baris?
He says he wants to apologize.
He wants to apologize?
What are you, a parrot?
What's up at this hour?
-It's nothing mom.
-And with them shoes?
My boyfriend called.
He has an important matter
he wants to talk about.
I'll take care of him
then come back. Okay?
Why but at this hour?
Mom, will you please go to bed?
Come on now. Come on love.
I'll be back soon. Come on.
What is this?
As if I'm going abroad, or something?
The taxi is waiting outside. I'm off.
Bye.
It's not her boyfriend.
A married man. He also has a baby.
Sorry, who did you come to?
Baran.
Surname?
I don't know.
Door number?
I don't know.
Miss, no smoking in the building.
Fuck that.
Door number?
It's the 17th floor.
Door number is 389.
My poor little one.
She's empty handed.
Would you jump down a cliff if I asked?
You said so yourself,
remember, I'm a maniac...
Hello.
Hello there.
Could a person fit a song that well?
What are you doing here,
at this hour, in this dress, girl?
My lover called and I came.
Your lover called and you came.
Oh. Great. Alright.
How about you?
Well, today was the day for lunatics.
So we were just dancing.
You've been a bad
girl, I heard, eh?
We also heard that you really
regret it. But did we hear right?
We thought
you could regret a bit. Huh?
We heard that you like to have
fun while your lover's watching you.
Right?
I like to have fun, my love.
-My love?
-Yes.
Her love?
Then... So I better...
...tie you up here. Huh?
Would you have fun then, my love?
You can do whatever Baris
allows you to do, my love.
-Baris?
-Right, Baris?
Right, Baris? Her love.
Huh?
Baris!
Well, then.
Let's go.
We begin right away?
-Yes, let's begin.
-Let's begin.
Wow. Exactly.
Who's first?
Yes.
Come on, all this and
I bet you won't even last 2 hours.
May I say something?
Could do a little turn for me?
The other way around.
Oh shit!
Oh shit! Indeed.
Shit!
What else are you going to do her, bro?
Are you seriously going to break
her arms and legs?
I'm asking a question, Baran.
You see? Bar regrets it now.
Just like when he was a kid.
What's so funny, bitch?
You calling me a bitch now?
Ugly mutherfucker.
Monkey!
You were singing a different tune,
while I was fucking your ass.
You, bitch.
If it wasn't for Baris's sake...
...you couldn't even get
near my ass, could you? You bastard!
-Watch it now!
-What?
Watch your tongue!
What is it?
What is it, man?
You...
Watch your mouth or I'll fuck you up!
I'll actually fuck you up.
And your mother and sister too...
What did you say?
Why are you laughing?
What more can you do, dickhead!
I said I'd fuck your mother sister...
...and all your relatives,
and the dead ones too.
What are you saying huh?
I'll fuck you!
How dare you say that
to my mother and sister!?
You fucking immigrant!
Do you know who I am?
You fucking bitch!
Do you know who I am?
My relatives
and the dead ones too, eh?
Fuck off back to where
you came from. You fucking bitch.
Damn you,
you psycho! Who the hell are you!
Who the hell are you?
What the fuck is wrong with this bitch?
Huh? What the hell is this?
My finger's broken.
Fuck you, you fucking bitch!
Bitch!
I'll fuck your life, bitch!
Sister... When
you wake up, call my mother please.
She is worried when you
weren't there in the morning...
...and that your phone is turned off.
Come on, call mom right now. Bye.
Morning.
Oh, well. This is the first
time I hear you saying good morning.
Err. Do you know if
Mr. Baris is coming today?
Well, I don't know. He's supposed to
be here now.
Her class will start soon.
Gl's not here. Her phone's off.
Everything's on me now.
He'll probably be here any minute now.
I didn't know that you speak Turkish.
Oh! Mr. Emin calling.
Mr. Baris's partner.
Hello? Yes, Mr. Emin?
Yes. I'm at the desk.
What?
How?
What happened?
Well...
Sayara. Your sister...
Yonca...
She committed suicide.
Father?
It's not easy to do what I need to do
sometimes, my girl. You know?
I know, father.
How do you know?
Because of what you teach me.
My dear... I'm a sinner.
I committed many great sins.
It doesn't matter.
The darkness in me,
is in you too, Sayara.
But if someone crosses that line.
To you...
...or your mother.
Or to your sister...
You will go all the way.
Without blinking.
You will go to
bottom of that darkness.
Do you understand?
Yes father.
So thank you my God!
I don't know what else to say.
A slander!
It's a slander, a dishonesty.
Yes.
Yes, right.
Who is it?
Hey hey, enough is enough!
Mother (in-law) shall I call you later?
The baby is raising hell again.
Ok, mother (in-law). We appreciate it.
Greetings to all family.
Thanks for your support.
Thank you very much.
My dear, we're having a dreadful day
already. Please don't make it harder!
Yes?
Yes? What do you want?
Where is Baris?
Sorry, who are you?
I brought Mr. Baris
something from the gym.
Baris is not at home. Give it to me.
What is it?
When will he come?
You...
You are that girl. I'm
calling the police right now.
Give me your phone!
Give it to me!
What is your password?
Tell me your password!
One, one, zero, seven, seven, four.
Can you send me the location?
I told you it's
Baran's father's house.
Just send me the location please.
So my grandfather was offered...
...this land from Beyoglu
at time. But he refused, right?
He was offered land from Kadikoy.
But he refused.
Why? My grandfather was a smart guy.
It's crowded today...
...and all that traffic jam.
Can you live there?
You tell me. You can't.
Now we have a nice home in ekmeky.
It's nice there,
it's quite and peaceful.
So what would you do there? Right?
Not talkative much tonight?
Hey Furkan, mind your
own business man. Come on.
You think they did it?
What?
The girl... You think they've...
I think the real question is:
Did they kill the girl before they
threw her of the window, or not?
Fuck that man!
-What's so funny?
-Should I cry?
-Oh, Mr. Halil is coming.
-Hold on. You wait.
Welcome Senator.
You eager beaver kiss-ass.
Halil Baba, welcome...
You damn gypsy!
I entrust my son to you. You bastard!
-And this is what you do?
-Lower your hand!
Please! Stop! Halil Baba please!
Let me be your dog.
You're already a dog!
You call yourself a part of the family?
You call yourself a boss?
You call yourself a nationalist?
Because of scoundrels like you,
the reputation of our people is tarnished.
You son of a bitch.
Halil Baba. Please, don't...
I fuck your Halil Baba.
You're all murderers!
You sons of bitches!
What the hell is this? What's
the matter with you people?
Just tell me!
You did this to your mother huh?
You did this too?
I named you Baris.
Your mother and I named you Baris (Peace).
Amid all the chaos in the country...
We gave you anything you asked!
Anything you asked!
You asked to go to Brazil.
We sent you there.
You asked to go to Thailand,
kickboxing and all...
...we sent you there.
You asked to launch the gym. We did.
And is this what I deserve, son?
Huh? Inglorious bastard!
Thank God I was able...
...to reach the prosecutor right away.
Had to put up with his bullshit all day.
He's still outside the door.
It's not an easy road ahead of us...
But I'll fuck your lives.
I'll fuck your lives.
One by one. All of yours.
Especially this bastard's!
You fucking gypsy! Bastard!
Should I burn your car park
with your father in it now? Ha?
Shall I burn your father?
How is it?
Check her out man...
Look.
What are you saying man?
What are you saying?
Look at the eyelashes.
The most important
thing in a woman is eyelashes.
Look.
Have you ever seen
an ankle like this?
Wonderful.
She thinks I'm a cop.
-Really?
-Sure.
-I'll give it to her good tonight.
-Good for you.
Whoa! Excuse me! Whoa!
Yes?
Prosecutor, Sir.
Do you think it will be a long night, Sir?
I don't know what to say anymore.
This is so fucked.
-But he doesn't listen to me.
-Right?
Acting like a spoiled kid.
-I hear you Prosecutor Sir.
-I'm a Public Prosecutor, dammit!
What am I doing here in this hour?
-I hear you Prosecutor Sir.
-Fuck your prosecutor, and fuck your Sir.
Prosecutor, Sir...
Allahu akbar.
Allahu akbar.
Allahu akbar.
Allahu akbar.
Did you ever kill anyone, dad?
Once.
Only once?
Those who are warriors
like you and me...
...only remember their first kill.
The rest... The rest is darkness.
Just darkness.
And once you get in...
...you can never get
out of that darkness.
Is that why you cry sometimes daddy?
My lovely daughter.
We named you Baris
for a reason, man...
We named you Baris.
You get the fuck out
of here and go upstairs.
Beat it!
What happened
with this girl, son? Tell me!
What should I say?
Tell me!
Well, just like
I told the prosecutor.
Fucking prosecutor...
This shit sounds a lot like
what you did...
...2 years ago with Baran, in Cesme.
If it's so, tell me.
So I will think
of a plan accordingly.
What will you plan, dad?
This has nothing to
do with that incident.
Then what is it?
What happened son?
You know what happened dad?
What?
Emin and Baran started beating her...
They were beating her head.
Her head was almost broken.
My heart sank.
I froze. I actually...
...was going to do something.
I was going to hold Baran's arm.
I was going to beat
Emin if necessary...
...and I was going to
knock them down. But...
I suddenly started thinking the
first day I started school.
It was a dark morning.
Rainy.
There was a huge
crowd in front of the school.
They were reading
some lists and so on.
Mothers, fathers...
They were forming lines.
Everyone's excited.
I was holding my mother's hand.
My mother was talking to someone.
I looked up to his face...
A handsome man...
Just like a movie star.
I remember his dark hair...
I was thinking
"What a handsome man". At that age...
And then...
...the man said something.
Made a joke.
My mom laughed.
But you know what.
It was such a heartfelt laugh.
I don't remember mother ever
laughing like that to anything you said.
I was surprised.
Then I was just about to laugh...
...when my mother's face went pale.
You...
...came out of nowhere,
knocking the guy down.
As you were dragging us out of there...
...I saw the guy lying on the floor.
He was lying still.
It was like a bucket of blood came
out of his head. Do you know, dad?
I was...
...surprised to see
so much blood coming...
...out of a person's
head in a short time.
Then we just left. We were gone.
You put me in another school.
And nobody ever spoke a word about it.
Do you remember?
So?
This is all I think about
since last night.
I'm not thinking about
the girl. Understand?
My family...
I'm only thinking about my family.
It doesn't make sense, huh?
What is a family?
What does family mean? I've been
thinking about it since yesterday!
Do you know what family is, Baris?
Tell me?
Family is sacrifice.
May God be my witness.
Family means sacrifice.
Put me in another school again, dad.
For God's sake!
Why don't you answer?
How many people inside?
If you make a sound,
I'll stick this knife in your neck.
How many people inside?
Five. Six.
Five? Or six?
-Six.
-Good.
My agent called my mom.
And?
I'm kicked out of the show.
And the commercials too.
What were you expecting?
My career is over. My career is over!
You're seriously crying
because you are out of a show?
I'm crying...
...because you..
...killed that poor girl-
Not you, but us.
You were gonna say we killed
the girl, right?
What did I do?
What did I do man? What did I do?
I told you to stop god dammit!
Why didn't you stop, bro?
Why didn't you stop?
And what for? Poor girl!
You're a little too late
for this drama now.
Emin Abi...
Emin Abi, please tell me.
What did I do? I didn't do anything.
Emin Abi's lights are on,
but there's no one home.
Cut the crap.
I'll fuck your lights on.
Playing the tough guy again, eh?
-Yes.
-So what?
What happened to your all that
endless talk about your connections now?
Let me be your dog Halil Baba.
Let me be whatever you want Halil Baba.
And now you are the man again? Bitch!
Hey! Baran? Where are you going?
I'm going out.
Emin Abi? You too?
Where are you going?
I'm going to fucking
take a shit. Will you come?
Yes.
Elbows pointing down.
Breath out.
Leave no gap.
Your ear on my back.
That's it.
That's my girl.
Don't say a word.
-What's happening?
-Hands behind your back.
Hands behind your back.
Do it!
Alright.
Easy! Easy!
Samil Bazarov.
Is the real father of the girl?
I'm not worried.
You go to her house tonight.
Bring the sister and mother here,
right away.
Mr. Halil, Sir.
Why do you bring Yonca's sister
and mother here now?
I can't reach Nur.
You know where my wife is?
-What the fuck!
-Emin Abi!
Hey, what's happening there?
Sir, something's not right.
No answer from outside.
What do you mean no replies from outside?
Shall I check it Sir?
Baran!
Was it you?
Sayara...
Did you kill my sister?
Cuff yourself there.
Do it!
Kill us, bitch!
Kill me first, then these boys.
Or else, I'll tear you
and your mother to pieces!
I'll scrape you from the face of the earth.
May God be my witness, I'll do it!
Sayara...
I don't know what your plan is...
...but our family is
over 12.000 strong.
Whatever hole you run into...
...we will find you and your mother.
Look, I swear to you...
...we didn't harm your sister.
She came to us willingly.
There are texts, phone call records.
See for yourself.
Shut the fuck up!
We did it! We killed your sister!
Now you kill us! Huh? Go ahead!
Kill us!
What the hell is this? Bastard.
Bitch!
You.
We'll start with you.
Start what?
No weapons. No rules. You're
all going to fight me one on one.
If one of you five
wins, I lose. Naturally...
If you win?
Fuck it! I think it's a good idea.
Let's begin.
What do you take us for? You little shit!
You aware who you messing?
Turkmen bastard!
This is Halil Ataberk
standing in front of you!
Halil Ataberk!
Stop! No! Stop!
Baris...
Baris called your sister.
Your sister came willingly.
I swear to you... I swear to you.
The Qur'an be my witness.
Your sister came willingly, I swear.
Check the dm's.
Check the phone.
Enough.
What's that?
What's that?
What's that?
No, I don't want to fight.
I don't want to fight.
I'm not a part of this.
Emin abi, Emin abi, Emin abi tell
her. I'm not guilty. Tell her bro.
Hey let him go, sister.
Let it go, woman!
I said that's enough!
You killed him, wasn't that enough!
Enough!
I'm innocent.
I swear I'm innocent.
I didn't do anything.
I didn't harm your sister.
These bastards did it!
I was there because
of these bastards.
Look, I swear.
I'll help you at the court.
I'll be your witness.
I didn't kill anyone.
I swear, I didn't even touch her.
Believe me. I don't want to hurt you.
You mutherfucker!
Come to me.
Come to me, come on.
My turn! Come on.
Calm down! Easy now...
Why did you kill my sister?
Why did you kill my sister?
Look. I told you your sister
came on her terms.
We didn't do anything.
We didn't kill your sister.
Your sister came to us by herself.
I told you to check the messages, dm's.
I swear...
...on the holy book,
she came to us, willingly.
She was naked under her coat.
There's a lot you don't know.
Calm down.
Calm down.
She was proper asking for it.
Understood?
With your canine teeth, sideways motion.
You do it too.
Exactly. Like that.
Alright?
My clever girl.
Why did you kill Yonca?
Go ahead uncuff me.
If you uncuff me...
I swear...
...I'll tear you apart.
But I won't kill you.
Sayara...
I have a surprise for you.
Shut up!
What's wrong bitch? You can't reach?
Come on!
Yes man! I've done it!
Baris, man! I've got her, man!
Come to me.
Come on.
What will you do?
You're finished, aren't you?
It's my turn.
Come on.
Come on!
Come on!
Where are you going?
Come here!
Come here!
Where are you going?
Father?
Father?
Sayara stop! What are you doing!
Stop! What are you doing, Sayara?
I said stop!
You were supposed to fight everyone.
Sayara! What are you doing!
You said you were gonna fight all of us!
I changed my mind.
What are you doing?
Sayara! What are you doing?
Sayara, stop. What are you doing?
Stop!
Sayara, no!
Stop!
Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!
Stop! Stop! Stop!
