Cabbar is a horse cab driver who has to take care of his elderly mother, his wife and their five children. They live in poverty in a slum and Cabbar is indebted to almost everyone. Cabbar buys lottery tickets consistently, as this is his only hope. One of Cabbar's two horses dies in a car accident. Cabbar moves heaven and earth to buy a new horse, and he also sells some furniture from his house in order to put some money together. Meanwhile, his creditors sell Cabbar's cab and the other horse. A carrier, Hasan, forces Cabbar to look for a treasure and a preacher convinces him to do so. Cabbar begins to look for a buried treasure. His indefatigable hope is gradually replaced by a dance of hopelessness. (Venice International Film Festival)

Muy bien, sutilmente, en un lenguaje cinematográfico claro (cámara de 16 mm) cuenta la historia del padre de una familia turca pobre que se hunde cada vez más en la extrema pobreza. Me sorprendió mucho hasta qué punto los problemas familiares de los turcos son idénticos a los nuestros. Y no me refiero a la insolvencia, sino a las relaciones marido-mujer-hijos. Independientemente de si viven en un palacio de diamantes o en una choza de papel.
