The landowner (Agha) of the Haraptar village marries off his old father with the beautiful Kiraz. But on the wedding night, his father dies, and everything starts to go badly for Agha. Due to the long drought Agha is forced to move to Istanbul, but he cannot keep up with the big city life.
A masterful blend of comedy and tragedy, The Broken Landlord is a cornerstone of Turkish cinema. Mirroring the nation’s dramatic social upheaval amid mass internal migration, Şener Şen delivers an unforgettable portrayal of a landowner’s chaotic unraveling in Nesli Çölgeçen’s influential film.
