Masumiyet
Zeki Demirkubuz

Yusef is released from prison after a ten-year sentence, with no-one waiting for him and without a job to go back to. He only has an address which his cell-mate gave him. His sister and her husband, who have personal problems, cannot take him in. He decides to stay in a small hotel where he meets a singer, Ugur, her child and her lover Bekir a man deranged by twenty years of jealousy. Yusef is irresistably attracted to the woman whom he tries to help in this going-to-the-dog life..."It is above all a film about compassion and feeling. If the characters all seem to come from dead-end situations, they are still able to fight at the edge of society". - Zeki Demirkubuz
