The Enemy

In this somber social drama, Ismail (Aytac Arman), an educated Turk, leaves Istanbul for Asia to flee crushing unemployment. Burdened with an ailing mother-in-law, a bitter wife, and a pretty young daughter to support, he takes work as a dog killer. He is saddened to see young women his daughter's age forced into prostitution. Returning home to ask his father and brother for an advance on his inheritance, he finds his wife leaves him. The enemy in question is unemployment.
