THREE MONKEYS

Uç Maymun

a film by :Nuri Bilge Ceylan

A family dislocated when small failings blow up into extravagant lies battles against the odds to stay together by covering up the truth... In order to avoid hardship and responsibilities that would otherwise be impossible to endure, the family chooses to ignore the truth, not to see, hear or talk about it. But does playing 'Three Monkeys' invalidate the truth of its existence?

French Synopsis :

Une famille disloquée à force de petits secrets devenus de gros mensonges, tente désespérément de rester unie en refusant d’affronter la Vérité. Pour ne pas avoir à endurer des épreuves et des responsabilités trop lourdes, elle choisit de nier cette Vérité, en refusant de la voir, de l'entendre ou d’en parler, comme dans la fable des “trois singes”. Mais jouer aux trois singes suffit-il à effacer toute Vérité ?
