Zeytinyağlı Yiyemem Aman

Emine is the daughter of a rich and well-off ağa. Ağa not only did not have a son, but also lost his wife at a young age. He raised his daughter Emine as a baby so that she would not feel orphaned. However, as Emine grew up, she became more and more unruly, stuck-up and disliked by everyone. She would drive away the suitors who came to the house and embarrass her father in front of his guests. Hüseyin Ağa set a condition for his daughter; either he would put someone in front of his daughter that he wanted, or the Ağa would marry her off to someone he deemed suitable. Emine had been waiting for Murat, whom she had been in love with for a long time, to want her. But Murat did not think of getting married, he roamed around like a vagabond all day and enjoyed his day.

Directed by Zeynep Tor, Zeytinyağlı Yiyemem Aman leans on a strong ensemble — Selin Sezgin, Emre Kıvılcım, Can Sallioglu — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about romance titles of 2014.
