What Is The Poor About?
The premise of The Poor without spoilers.
Three impoverished men—Abuzer, Haci and Arap—cross paths behind bars after serving separate sentences. Upon release they dread reentering a world that offers them nothing: no family, no work, and no guidance. While Haci and Arap share a similar bleak outlook, Abuzer is left utterly adrift, fearing starvation on the streets of the big city.
