Salih Tasci

One of Those Days When Hemme Dies (2024) isn’t your cookie-cutter drama—nah, it’s got way more bite. Salih Tasci, who’s really carving out a weird little niche for himself lately, drops us into the middle of a day where, well, everything goes sideways for Hemme. We’re talking about the kind of day where you wake up and every single thing that could go wrong, does. Hemme’s not some tragic hero, though. He’s just this regular guy, stumbling through his life, tripping over his own feet, and then—bam—life throws him a curveball he never saw coming. The whole vibe is darkly funny, honestly. There’s this undercurrent of “are you kidding me?” running through the story, like the universe itself is having a laugh at his expense. Hemme deals with bad luck, awkward encounters, and the kind of existential dread that’ll have you nervously laughing just to keep from crying. Tasci doesn’t pull punches either—the dialogue stings, the visuals feel raw, and the pacing keeps you on edge, never giving you a second to fully catch your breath. It’s not just about the bad day, though. There’s this sneaky layer of deeper meaning, poking at questions around fate, choice, and how sometimes you just gotta roll with the punches, even if they knock you flat. By the time the credits roll, you’re left chewing on what it really means to survive a day when it feels like the world’s out to get you. Not exactly a feel-good flick, but definitely one that sticks with you.
