About Beyaz Balina
The heartfelt story of Ali and Vahap, whose lives intersect in a remote village in Anatolia. After losing his parents, Ali comes from the big city to his grandfather's village, where he meets Vahap, the village's mischievous child. The story recounts how these two, who were once enemies, eventually form a friendship. Ali's unfinished reading of 'Moby Dick' becomes their shared passion. However, finding and reading the book is far from easy…
Directed by A. Uygar Öztürk, Beyaz Balina leans on a strong ensemble — Efe Karaman, Kaan Ürkmez, Güneş Sayın — 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 2017.
