Watching: The Misfits

Overview

Tutunamayanlar (The Misfits) is a 2020 Turkish absurdist dark comedy set in a quirky Istanbul neighborhood. Tarık — a man who has never held a job in his life — falls head over heels for İrem during a job interview. With nowhere else to go, İrem moves into his neighborhood and begins working at the local book café. What follows is a sharply funny, offbeat slice-of-life comedy about misfits, lovable losers, and the chaotic beauty of going nowhere fast.
