Getürkt is a short film by Fatih Akin from 1996 in which the director also plays the lead role. It is the Hamburg resident's second feature film and was made a year before his first feature-length film Short and painless (1998), with which he achieved his final breakthrough as a filmmaker.
The later award-winning film was funded by the FilmFörderung Hamburg GmbH and the FFA.
content
The film tells the vacation of the German-Turkish Musa (Fatih Akin) with his mother in the holiday home on the Black Sea. Weeds are pulled in the garden during the day before going out in the evening. Musa's only problem is that the best club in town doesn't want to let him in without a female companion. The Berlin Turk İlami ( Mehmet Kurtuluş ), a true picture-book gangster, comes to his aid. However, he has run out of "dope" and there is nowhere new to be found in the small Turkish town. The fact that Musa now has to brag about his cannabis stocks of all things becomes his undoing.
criticism
"In almost all respects, Getürkt becomes an ironic gangster-buddy film compressed to 11 minutes, which very clearly presents its role models from Coppola to Tarantino without getting lost in them."
Aside
For the role of Ali Ekbar, Akin cast his brother Cem at short notice after the originally cast actor was prevented from having his godchild baptized.
Awards
In 1998 , Getürkt won the Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau Prize at the “Tag des Deutschen Kurzfilms” .
