Grandpa's Plug (Dedemin Fişi) (translated)
BKM Film produced Dedemin Fişi (Grandpa's Plug), a Turkish comedy that opened in cinemas on January 22, 2016. Meltem Bozoğlu directed it from a story by Yılmaz Erdoğan, and its cast comes from the TV sketch show Güldür Güldür. It did well at the box office, with about 2 million admissions and 22.9 million lira. It premiered at BKM Theatre two days earlier.
The film follows the inheritance saga of the Çirci family from Malatya. The patriarch, Salih, is brain dead but kept alive on life support. While relatives argue over whether to pull the plug, siblings scattered for years converge on Malatya, each chasing the old man's estate. Part of the story is told through the grandson Bora, built around the bond that grandfather and grandson try to form. Ali Sunal, Alper Kul, Özge Borak, Doğa Rutkay, İrem Sak, Onur Buldu, Onur Atilla, Uğur Bilgin and Meltem Yılmazkaya play this crowded family. Sunal plays the father, Borak is Nurgül, Sak is Kader and Rutkay is Pervin.
The script is credited to Murat Kepez, Eray Akyamaner, Sıla Çetindağ and Uğur Güvercin. Ercan Saatçi composed the music and Türksoy Gölebeyi shot the film. One review noted that it draws mostly on character comedy and balances its large ensemble without much confusion.
