Varan Biiir

Hüseyin goes to a bar to have a drink. There is no one else inside except for a drunk customer. A mysterious man arrives shortly after, looking for a woman with green eyes and a straw hat. Before Hüseyin has a chance to say that there is no such person, the drunk customer pulls out a gun and shoots the man. Hüseyin suddenly finds himself in the middle of a murder case. Later that night, when he goes outside, he happens to come across the woman described. Her name is Perihan. At first, she denies the allegations. However, when she learns that the incident has been reported to the police, she is forced to tell the truth. Perihan is cheating on her husband. A enemy who finds out about this blackmails her. The woman, trying to escape, finds herself involved in a series of crimes, from theft to murder.

Directed by Aram Gülyüz, Varan Biiir leans on a strong ensemble — Fatma Girik, İzzet Günay, Kenan Pars — 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 1964.
