About Taşralı Amca
Fikret has come to Istanbul from his hometown to attend university. However, he spends his days drinking, gambling, and chasing women with his friend Ahmet. Every time Fikret runs out of money, he turns to his uncle Şefkati Bey back home. At the insistence of his daughter Nevin, Şefkati Bey decides to go to Istanbul to find out whether his nephew is telling the truth. The two friends are cornered.
Directed by Aram Gülyüz, Taşralı Amca leans on a strong ensemble — Yusuf Sezgin, Sevda Ferdağ, Vahi Öz — 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 1965.
