Mr. Muhsin

ComedyDrama145 min

An aging music producer lives alone, clinging to the manners and ideals of an older Istanbul while the industry around him changes. His ordered routine is broken when a young man from the provinces appears at his door, determined to become a folk singer and convinced this is the man who can make it happen. As the hopeful newcomer pushes into his life, Mr. Muhsin finds himself pulled between irritation, responsibility, and a buried need for connection. Their uneasy partnership turns into a clash of generations, ambition, and fading values, with Şener Şen at the center of a story about pride, loneliness, and what success costs when the world has moved on.
