Adalet Oyunu
Retired criminal court judge Sezgin loses his faith in justice and his profession after his daughter Belgin, who was his lifeline, is murdered and his son-in-law İlker, who was tried as the defendant, is acquitted. He moves away from the city he lives in and settles in a coastal town. Although İlker was acquitted in court, Sezgin believes that his son-in-law killed his daughter. Determined to seek justice in his own way, Sezgin kidnaps İlker and imprisons him in a cell he had built in the basement of his villa. He decides that his son-in-law will remain there until he dies. His retired judge friends Fuat, Nedim, Erdal, and his wife, prosecutor Nazan, visit him a few times a month to keep him company. Sezgin's decision to close his daughter's case file, his sudden move from Istanbul, and his son-in-law's disappearance around the same time raise suspicions among his friends.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a gripping moral drama around the conflict between institutional justice and personal vengeance, relying on a powerful central performance. It explores the psychological decay of a man who served the law, only to be failed by it in his deepest moment of need.
What lingers after the credits roll is the unsettling ambiguity of its central question—can a system ever truly deliver justice for a personal loss? The film offers no easy answers, only a haunting reflection. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Mahur Özmen
