A Hustler's Diary

In his second feature, Ivica Zubak explores the clash of social classes, when petty thief Metin accidentally rolls into the circuit of literary agents and publishers. Metin's diary filled with poetic reflections gets him in a pretty pickle. And it provides an interesting glimpse of his tortured soul. He is too self-aware for the criminal environment of robberies and the underground Turkish legal system, but too unpolished for the cocktail parties and façade of the middle classes.
