Storyline

A family battles against the odds to stay together when small lies grow into an extravagant cover-up. In order to avoid hardship and responsibilities that would otherwise be impossible to endure, the family chooses to ignore the truth, not to see, hear or talk about it. But does playing “Three Monkeys” invalidate the truth of its existence?

Critics consensus

“Exploring the effects of a family's dealings with an underhanded politician, this crime drama avoids showing the violent outcomes of its characters' misdeeds, resulting in a lingeringly potent film.”

Three Monkeys is a peculiarly nationalistic eulogy, because what lies at the heart of this nationalism isn't pride in national identity, but rather a quintessentially humanistic stance. It's a recognition of the people's ambivalence and failings.

Three Monkeys... is the latest eyeful from director Nuri Bilge Ceylan, one of a handful of international directors deserving of the title artist.

Ceylan finds moments of stunning visual composition and his cast truly delivers, so art-house audiences will more than likely be satisfied by Three Monkeys, even if it's not a knockout punch.

RTFrom the Front RowJul 7, 2019

A darkly lyrical film, filled with muddled morality, family angst and shady deeds.
