About Efkârlıyım Abiler
Arif is a street vendor who drinks every night and constantly gets into trouble and ends up in jail. His uncle Necmettinzade Rüknettin does not want Arif to live a vagrant life, but Arif cannot live with him because of his strictness. One night, Fatoş, who is desperate, approaches Arif and tells him she has run away from her stepmother. Arif and Fatoş begin living together. Arif, who is in love with Fatoş, wants to escape the poverty they are in. However, Fatoş is not the person Arif is in love with.
Directed by Türker İnanoğlu, Efkârlıyım Abiler leans on a strong ensemble — Sadri Alışık, Filiz Akın, Hulusi Kentmen — 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 comedy titles of 1966.
