The Market - A Tale Of Trade

A UK film set in Turkey explores the uneasy relationship that exists between morality and capitalism. A somewhat bumbling hero tries to do the right thing, but keeps coming up against the local mob and the financial demands of raising a family.

Definitely not a happy story, and everything doesn't work out in the end, but it's an interesting look at what happens to an idealist in a certain subculture. It helps that the main character is acted well, and the actor is quite likeable.
