About Tövbekar
A man famous for his toughness cuts himself off from everything after being released from prison. But his past never leaves him alone. His enemies from his past life, the people he has harmed in some way, never leave him alone. His young son Sezercik does everything he can to save his father from these men. He takes on a task that is too big for him.
Directed by Ertem Göreç, Tövbekar leans on a strong ensemble — Kadir İnanır, Sezer İnanoğlu, Erol Taş — 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 drama titles of 1977.
