Çam Yarması

A wealthy couple in their 30s living in Istanbul cannot have children. While trying to adopt a child from an orphanage, they end up adopting three children. Thirty years pass, and the family goes bankrupt. The irresponsible children are kicked out of the house by their father, who tells them, "Don't set foot in this house without finding a job." Knowing they cannot return home without finding work, these wayward children are forced to seek employment. Due to certain circumstances, these wayward children are forced to leave Istanbul, and their adventures continue in Çorum.

Directed by Sefa Özçelik, Çam Yarması leans on a strong ensemble — Ferdi Kurtuldu, Murat Kuşçu, Tevfik İnceoğlu — 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 2017.
