A woman lets a harmless looking fortune teller into her house. The fortune teller is clearly gifted, but it turns out she had no intention of just telling fortunes. Soon, the woman deeply regrets letting her in.
In The Pomegranate, Ümit Ünal crafts a noir tableau within an opulent Istanbul residence, where a fortune teller’s revelations expose the fragility of societal bonds. A gripping inquiry into justice, this thought-provoking film explores what happens to society when collective trust is shattered.
