Dümdüzz Adam

Ferdi, a simple and unassuming taxi driver, lives with his grandfather Cemşit. Cemşit has fallen in love with Tatyana, whom he only communicates with via text messages. When Tatyana asks for 10,000 euros to come to Turkey from Bulgaria, Cemşit decides to sell his farm. Ferdi tells his grandfather that Tatyana is a con artist, but he cannot convince him, and they set off for the real estate agent. On the way, they get into an accident and hit a woman named Kader. The young woman loses her memory after the accident. Ferdi does not know where to take Kader, so he takes her in his car and continues on his way. While dealing with his grandfather and making plans for Kader to regain her memory, Ferdi also has to deal with customers getting into the taxi. However, his problems are not limited to these. Along the way, Ferdi has to deal with two crazy people, a robber, the mafia, a wallet left in the car, and many other issues.

Directed by Murat Toktamışoğlu, Dümdüzz Adam leans on a strong ensemble — Ferdi Sancar, Cezmi Baskın, Efsane Odağ — 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 2018.
