The side you don't usually see


More (2017)

Directed by Onur Saylak this film stars Hayat Van Eck, Ahmet Mumtaz Taylan and Turgut Tuncalp. A 14 year old boy with dreams of leaving his small village to go to science school in Istanbul works for his father trafficking refuges through Turkey.

It is some what unusual to see a film from the point of view of the people smuggling refugees rather than from the point of view of the refugees but this is still an interesting film. The plot shows how the protagonist descends into cruelty and how the cycle starts to repeat itself. There are decent performances and good direction.

4/5
