Short description

The Sleeper is a Turkish action thriller centered on Ferman, a professional assassin employed by a clandestine group to eliminate former agents. During a mission, Ferman meets Saye and develops feelings for her. Rather than completing his objective, he brings her into the secret organization, a choice that fundamentally alters the course of both their lives.

Directed by Can Ulkay, this film follows his previous works Ayla: The Daughter of War and Paper Lives, and precedes Lefter: The Story of the Ordinarius. The movie was produced by Polat Yağcı through Poll Films, with a screenplay written by Kubilay Tat. The lead roles are played by Çağatay Ulusoy and Elçin Sangu, supported by a cast that includes Barış Falay, Ferit Kaya, Musa Uzunlar, and Tamer Levent.

Released in late 2025, the film has a runtime of 123 minutes. It earned 4 million USD at the worldwide box office. Audience ratings for the production are available on IMDb and on TMDB.
