Araf 4: Meryem

Meryem is a young woman who has just started teaching. At first, everything is going well in Meryem's life, who is staying with her aunt Nurten, who has a disabled son and a daughter, along with her friend Güzide, who is also a teacher. However, after a while, she begins to witness strange occurrences in the house. Believing that what is happening is psychological, Maryam becomes even more panicked when she learns that Güzide is experiencing the same things. While Maryam tries to make sense of the events, her aunt Nurten is aware of the reason behind them. Knowing the secrets of the past, Nurten makes Maryam pay the price for the sins that have been committed.

Directed by Gökhan Arı, Araf 4: Meryem leans on a strong ensemble — Ulukan Agdas, Zafer Sahin, Efsun Akkurt — 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 horror titles of 2020.
