Eyup takes the blame for his politician boss, Servet, after a hit and run accident. In return, he accepts a pay-off, believing it will make life for his wife Hacer and teenage son more secure. Wanting to help her son, Hacer approaches Servet for an advance, but soon gets involved with him. When Eyüp returns from prison the tension between the four reaches a climax.

Style over Substance
Its no surprise Nuri won best director at Cannes for Three Monkeys. It is visually stunning and displays a gritty, sweaty and poverty ridden side to Turkey that we rarely see. The story itself is a simple one about conflicts yet you never really care about those onscreen or the explosive arguments they tumble into. The ending comes as almost a relief. Three Monkeys is a candid, vivid and bleak trip.
