Sinekatalog’s take

A man whose good deeds and sins are exactly balanced is sent back to earth, where his cousin comes to Istanbul to buy a tractor and visits his grave. The comic afterlife conceit drives the farce. A fun curiosity for fans of fifties Turkish comedy.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
