The story

What Is The Apprentice About?

The premise of The Apprentice without spoilers.

For fifteen years, Alim has been an apprentice tailor, working for Yakup and trapped in a monotonous existence defined by routine and a deep fear of death. Each day begins with opening the shop, followed by naps or television until his boss arrives. Evenings are spent carpooling with Kemal from the coffeehouse. A news report about the dangers of LPG-powered vehicles sparks a peculiar obsession: Alim begins meticulously assessing the fuel type of each taxi he rides, assigning them scores. Determined to avoid cars altogether, he makes a significant change by moving to an apartment closer to work, a decision that marks a crucial turning point in his life.
