About Yıkılan Yuva
Ekrem, a heart doctor, has a troubled marriage with his wife Jale. Their marriage, which was happy at first, gradually gives way to violent arguments. Ekrem's life takes a completely different turn when he sees Ayla, who comes to the hospital after an accident one day. Ekrem, who falls in love with Ayla and begins a relationship with her, starts to neglect both his work and his son Murat. The death of his patient, Mr. Ali, presents Ekrem with a great opportunity. By posing as the deceased man, who had no family, Ekrem plans to live the life he desires. However, things do not go as he had planned.
Directed by Orhan Aksoy, Yıkılan Yuva leans on a strong ensemble — Cüneyt Arkın, Filiz Akın, Süleyman Turan — 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 1967.
