The peaceful cohabitation of bachelors Ender and Çetin is disrupted when they allow a friend’s sister to move in with them. The 30-something longtime friends are overwhelmed by the presence of the uncommunicative Nihal. What possessed them to accept the responsibility of a university student in their home? Especially a girl struggling with the trauma of recently losing her parents in a car accident. But simple daily rituals like sharing meals eventually bring the three roommates together for more pleasant moments. Nihal soon comes out of her depressed shell and the two men discover a vibrant beautiful young woman. Always caring and protective gentlemen, Ender and Çetin are intent on being conscientious guardians. Nihal enjoys discussing literature and poetry with scholarly Ender, and she finds comfort in boisterous Çetin’s earthy humor. Before they see what’s coming, both men fall in love with the enchanting Nihal. Seyfi Teoman (Kayseri, 1977) studied economics at Bogaziçi University and then film directing at Lodz Polish National Film School. He shot his short film, Apartment, in 2004 and then directed his first feature Summer Book in 2008.

Orhan Kemal’s masterpiece 72nd Ward is the story of the abyss into which human dignity can fall... The 1940s, years of famine in Turkey as the impact of World War II made itself felt. The destitute prisoners serving time for miscellaneous crimes in the penitentiary’s ward no 72. ‘Man is a wolf to his fellow man,’ goes the saying, and we are exposed here to the world of the abyss into which men tumble with their poverty, suffering, longing for humanity, dreams about life, conflicts, loves and quarrels. This is a world in which people can sink so low as to sell their closest friends for next to nothing, yet also share their few pennies to the very end. 72nd Ward is a story of humanity and reminds us like a slap in the face of our lost values.

Murat Saraçoğlu (Istanbul, 1970) studied at the Radio and Television Department of Istanbul University. He has directed several television series, as well as writing an award-winning book of short stories.

A love affair threatened by a barrier as great as itself… Can differences of faith stand in the way of an innocent love affair? Two young people, Esma and Mustafa, fall in love. For them, the future only has meaning if they are together. Failing this, life is meaningless. However, overhanging their love is a barrier unique to the period and location: Mustafa is a clandestine Christian, when everyone including Esma thinks he is Muslim. In the meantime, the Ottoman Empire introduces a series of reforms giving Christians the same rights as Muslims. From this point on, the Church urges secret Christians to reveal their faith. This poses a dilemma for Mustafa: he is caught between his love and the Church.

A painter with a turbulent history, fiercely committed to his ideals and still averse to settling down despite his 70 years; a lawyer who packed in his job after suffering a heart attack and now pursues a quiet life looking after his pet snail; a doctor already disenchanted with his profession and now discarded by his wife; a career woman braving life on her own, who has made loneliness a lifestyle. These characters are all patrons of Black & White, an Ankara bar that has been around for 25 years, and in a sense the bar is their last haven. The owner, meanwhile, is the irritable, easily offended but utterly lovable Faruk... Black & White is a film about the awareness of growing old, friendship, sensitivity and the finer details of life.

Servet, the accountant of a large company, plans to steal a small fortune from the company’s internet bank accounts, encouraged by his wife’s hunger for money. Servet’s plan also includes his best friend Gökhan, in that he’ll transfer the funds to Gökhan’s account, so that if anything goes wrong his friend will get the blame. Two other friends of Servet’s will figure as extras in the scam. But he has forgotten two things: first that although his friends are tricky like him, they’re also naive; and second, that if they’re trying to be jackals themselves, they’re already in the thick of a jackals’ world. The result? The four friends bungle the whole venture in a serious of and their ambitions of making a fast buck lead them on a wild and entertaining adventure.

Hamdi, a wig seller in a run-down district in Istanbul, is desperately lonely. He’s addicted to cigarettes and spends his time, day and night, bored, in his store, which is also his home. His cancer means he has only a short time left to live, but he chain-smokes, staring out of his window at a woman in red, a prostitute standing on the pavement on the other side of the noisy road. Hamdi also believes he is shrinking and measures his height every day. He has no expectations: except perhaps of going somewhere far away before he dies. Brazil is the furthest place he can think of, a paradise with no pain. One day a strange thing happens: a woman, Meryem, comes to his store to sell her very long hair. Hamdi is stunned as he contemplates her. He cuts her hair as she hides her tears. Hamdi becomes obsessed, following her when she leaves the store and then everywhere she goes.

Old age is such an extraordinary realm that we feel like bowing respectfully before the elderly, who despite their years embody a potent combination of strength and wisdom...

Their two disparate lives are destined to cross unexpectedly. Saadet travels with her children to Macedonia for her son Orhan’s circumcision ceremony, delighting Şaban Aga and Mamo by her arrival. For the return trip to Istanbul, they travel with Şaban Aga’s friend Vanya in his car. But on the way, they have an accident. Mamo is seriously injured and dies soon after. With some difficulty Saadet persuades the unwilling Şaban Aga to come to Istanbul. Orhan Oğuz (Kırklareli) was interested in photography and painting from an early age.

The elimination night of ‘Home’, a TV contest along the same lines as ‘Big Brother’... The show goes ahead smoothly until the eliminated contestant leaves the home. A gunshot is heard and the live broadcast is interrupted. A gunman has broken into the house and planted bombs at every exit.

There’s just one condition to leaving the house: everything that happens there under his supervision must be broadcast live. Under this scenario, where contestants are cast in the role of victim and viewers in the role of killers, the night promises more than evicting the chosen contestant...

“The situation is not specific to Turkey; such cases also exist in the rest of the world. Although incest has different meanings in different cultures, it is almost always treated as invisible, a taboo which is not talked about and ignored (...) And for us, ignoring this problem is like taking a part in it. That’s why we wanted to make this movie, not to take part in this crime.” Ilksen Basarır Erdem, Sevil and their children, Edip and Sevgi, live in a small town.When Sevil’s mother has a stroke, they move to Istanbul and life begins changing. Edip has spent the last 10 years at boarding school and grown away from home, while Erdem is still chasing his lifelong dream of becoming a good writer. Noticing the sudden change in Sevgi’s behaviour, her moodiness and detachment, Sevil starts questioning certain incidents at home and discovers the dark secret behind Sevil’s closed doors.

Ilksen Başarır (1978) studied communications at Marmara University. She began working as an assistant director at the production company, IFR in 2000. Since then she has worked in the production of TV commercials and feature films. She received many awards for her debut film Love in Another Language. Merry-go-round is her second feature.

What would a man risk to avoid getting blood on his hands if he found himself and his family unwittingly surrounded by violence? What are the ways to protect innocence and remain human in a world dominated by violence? Set in the Cyprus of 1963, this story is inspired by a real-life incident that took place during the ethnic clashes between Turks and Greeks, and presents its own myths and belief in peace within an impressive visual and dramatic structure.

Derviş Zaim (1964) graduated from Boğaziçi University with a degree in management and went on to earn an MA in film and cultural studies from the University of Warwick in the UK.

Aziz works as a clerk in a library and lives a quiet and peaceful life in his own little world. One day, Seçil, the owner of a new beauty parlor in the neighborhood, moves into the apartment building where Aziz lives with her 10-year-old daughter Gizem. Aziz now leads a more colorful life with his new neighbors, but his life is overshadowed when the little girl falls into a deep sleep. Gizem’s slumber triggers a whole series of events, and a bunch of ordinary-looking but distinctive characters join together to try to change the course of fate. Sleeping Princess is an upbeat Çağan Irmak film and, in contrast with others, it is a fairy tale to be read upon waking up.

A young woman from the very liberal Aegean city of Smyrna is posted to a cold and religious northern town, Of, for her first job as a judge. She goes with her mother, both full of preconceptions about the ill-famed town, which is supposedly home to terrifying mafias and Islamists. However, what they find are warm and joyous people dancing with the merest sound of music on their beautiful mountains. The only difficulty is the odd mentality of the Black Sea people. A social satire on regional contradictions, cultural prejudices, disastrous consequences of the so-called development on the environment, and the heavy burdens women endure in a land which gave birth to the Amazons.

Nur Dolay studied sociology and political sciences in USA and at Sorbonne University, Paris. She worked as a journalist for the French media (Le Monde Diplomatique, Courrier International, Thalassa on France 3 TV, Radio France International) and Turkish press for 28 years. She has travelled all over the world and written books on Latin America and the Caucasus, as well as making a dozen documentary films on geopolitical issues and marine subjects. Smyrn-Of is her directorial debut.

Kenan, a quiet man who has difficulty in communicating with others, who often chooses –and sometimes can’t help– to plunge into his dream world rather than talking to people, is a 35 year old toll booth clerk who lives with his father. He works at the Tavsancik toll booth plaza and is known for having more vehicles pass through than the other toll booth clerks do, and also for talking to himself every now and then while on duty. Kenan’s life, a humdrum routine between the Tavsancik toll booth plaza and his home, will change the day the new operations chief arrives to inspect Tavsancik.

A friendship that began as two boys in Thessaloniki, developed as two comrades in arms, and blossomed in a sense of brotherhood based on the same ideals until the death of one after the Republic was proclaimed. So strong was the bond between them that when one passed away, the other genuinely wished the same. The story of a generation challenging death! Veda is not only a film about the life of Ataturk; it also sheds light on a particular period of Turkish history, taking up a human approach in its analysis of brotherhood, war, love and affection. It is a story of fellowship, a portrayal of the milestones in Ataturk’s life, and the story of a leader commanding a generation which challenged death to save the homeland. The story is narrated by Salih Bozok, a key witness of the period.

Zülfü Livaneli is an international author, musician and filmmaker whose work has been published in 28 different languages. He has worked with well-known figures such as Elia Kazan, Vanessa Redgrave, Arthur Miller and Mikhail Gorbachev on developing world culture and contributing to progress in the arts.

Derya works at a bank call centre and lives with her mother in a fairly standard middle-class apartment block in Istanbul. Her mother, who worries about Derya being alone in life, pressurises her constantly to get married; but Derya simply ignores these pleas and gets on with her humdrum, routine life. Except that one day this is suddenly thrown upside down when she hears a supernatural voice... To begin with, the Voice is no more than an inarticulate murmur; but as time goes on, so it starts speaking to Derya in words she can understand. Convinced that she is hallucinating, the young woman does her best to disregard the Voice; however, after a while she has no choice but to listen. The Voice tells the chilling story of a young woman who confronts her own inner voice and learns to accept herself as she is.

Hasan is a 12-year-old boy, struggling to survive in a mountain village with his two younger siblings and devoted to his mother. The family falls into poverty when his father goes to prison and his mother starts to work as a caretaker in town. The film tells the story of Hasan set against the backdrop of a small, impoverished village, the deadlock of their deprivation, and what he goes through to try to scrape a living. It also tells of the people around him as they try to settle their own scores with life and themselves. White as Snow shows us how our lives are interconnected, how we are all responsible for each other, how a seemingly insignificant act in one person’s life can have an unprecedented impact on someone else’s.

Selim Güneş (Borçka, 1961) earned a degree in electrical engineering and administration. He has been a photographer since 1989, with a focus on Istanbul pictures. He has held seven photography exhibitions and published one book called Istanbul, ‘City of the Lodos Winds.’

Circle is the story of ordinary people in the characters of Feramuz, Arif and Betül, who conjure up interesting solutions to extraordinary situations and obstacles generated by the system. When the system we live in throws up weird and incomprehensible obstacles and regulations, we tend to strive to adapt to the system instead of trying to change it. We strive to survive by creating even more weird and extraordinary solutions. In a way, this attitude is hope for hopelessness, a solution for the insoluble. A character of this nature has always come to be worth telling. As in the logical argument of philosopher St Augustine “Credo quia absurdum” (“I believe it because it is absurd”), the absurd has the power to be irrefutable and indestructible. The seemingly isolated stories about each character that tell of their lives, needs, goals, and methods in fact take us to the picture of a system that makes people think and do the extraordinary.

Atıl İnaç studied philosophy at the University of Missouri, Kansas City and graduated from Boğaziçi University in philosophy. He continued his academic studies at Claremont Graduate University, specializing in the philosophy of language. From 2003 to 2007, after returning to Turkey, he spent all his time writing and directing TV films and series for most of the major television networks. The director completed his first feature film Zincirbozan in 2007.

In a snowy Kurdish mountain village in eastern Turkey, Berfé, an old woman, and Jiyan, her young granddaughter, are troubled when the only man of the household, Temo, the son of one and father of the other, is arrested and taken into custody by the local gendarmerie. The commanding officer has received word that the villagers are hiding guns. It is announced that all the men of the village will be kept in custody until their families submit and hand over the guns they are hiding. But the problem is there are no guns, at least to the knowledge of these two blameless women. Despairing and on their own, Berfé and Jiyan are faced with a long journey in search of a gun that they can exchange for their beloved Temo. But how can their innocence and naivety find a way out in a system that threatens, eventually, to drag them into the sullied world of an interminable conflict?

Hüseyin Karabey (1970) graduated from the Film and Television Department of Marmara University in 2001.

After a long and exhausting bus ride to Istanbul, Haldun is unsure where to go. He tries to find old friends in the city, but has no luck. At night, he comes to the Tarlabasi area of Beyoglu. Tarlabasi, with its population of transvestites, drug-dealers, gypsy musicians, Kurds, Laz people, Iranian, Iraqi, and African refugees, is a hub of crime. All these different cultures live here in avoidance and hatred of each other. Haldun finally manages to find a childhood friend, Maruf. Haldun is welcome to stay with Maruf until he finds his feet.

Tired of the noise and pollution of large cities, a group of environmental intellectuals abandon the big city and return to nature. They build a brand new village with shabby old stone houses on a block of land they purchase. They name their new village ‘Ecovillage’. Their intention here is to enjoy a happy life through ecological tourism, organic farming, and arts and culture. At first they coexist happily with the true village folk from whom they purchased the land and old stone houses. In fact, there’s even attraction between the leading intellectual character, Camille, and Ali, the village headman. Katrin is a European character who settled in Turkey after years of working for environmental organizations like Greenpeace. Meanwhile, the village headman Ali has never left his village and has no education – a typical village person. The emotional bond between them develops in a humorous yet strange manner.

When he meets Eda, a tomboyish and striking beauty, who draws ship murals throughout the city, he is convinced that he must find ‘Distant’ and Eda is meant to join him on his quest. Eda finds it hard to connect with Ali at first, but is soon drawn to his uniqueness and lack of pretence.

So one day, the Black Sea man finds himself in Diyarbakır. As Koşman sets off from this south-eastern city, there’s a mysterious companion beside him in the fire engine, spectacular landscape outside, and a long journey and extraordinary adventure ahead.

The late 1990s, Turkey... As the conservative state radio’s monopoly ends, so an increasing number of private radio stations come on air daily. Among the new stations, one airs a programme that breaks all the rules of conventional Turkish broadcasting. ‘Have we had sex before?’ is the question that greets women listeners on air, while ‘We’d really like to stay with you all night, but as you know, we have a sex life too,’ is the show’s closing tag line. The show, hosted by two men, Kaan and Mete, is called The Losers’ Club. Kaan owns a publishing house which publishes alternative books – the kind that don’t sell. Mete runs a bar in Kadikoy and is a dedicated old record and document collector. Both are lonely, neither involved in a serious relationship, and both surviving on one-night stands. In the second half of the 1990s, they begin hosting a new radio show for fun.

The film opens against the backdrop of one of the remarkable milestones of the 20th century. Kemal, in his early 20s, is a university student who watches news break of the collapse of socialism on a tiny television enlightening his intrinsically messy student house. The ethos of his Weltanschauung, which he adopted a while ago, is now being demolished by people in the system with sledgehammers, axes and dozers before his very eyes. Love and Revolution is a story revolving around youth, a stage of life during which people desperately need a sense of belonging. In a sense, it is the story of a time when actual identities fall short, while feelings of deprivation and lust (spiritual, sexual, political, mental etc.) prey on the existence of being human.

F. Serkan Acar (Artvin, 1975) studied psychology at Istanbul University. During his university years he wrote articles for, and published cinema magazines. After graduating, he worked on television and cinema productions as an assistant director and production manager.

The Luxury Hotel, the first stop on a long journey to more independent lives, brings incarceration to these people. Just like kites caught on power lines, they become stuck in the hotel. The Luxury Hotel is a desolate, has-been place. Despite its desolation, the hotel is run by the mafioso character Cumali, who is interested in nothing but money. The refugees can neither return to where they’ve escaped from, nor move on to where they planned, even though they face harsh conditions in the hotel…

Basri (55) is a railway warden, whose job demands that he has to walk 18 km as a day along the rail tracks. If he comes across anything untoward on the tracks, he reports to the train department.

And five years after his son went missing, Basri’s wife died. On the first and the 15th day of every month for the last 18 years, Basri has written to the state, appealing to the authorities to find his son. He is steadfast both in his job and in the hope of finding his son.

Oasis grows out of three different stories: Share, Skirt and Conscience. Each of the stories takes place in fall, in the same village and within the same time frame, and they interconnect through tiny circles. In a small village, beneath three separate roofs three different lives are bound to each other… A father, a son, a husband and wife, a mother-in-law and a bride, as representing the young, old and dying conditions of human existence. A rifle stolen from the gendarmerie near the village links the stories.

Like the seeds of a pomegranate we are all individuals: we are both remarkably similar and remarkably different. But at the same time we are like a whole, unopened pomegranate. The rind which holds us together is the faith we have in one another. Suppose, then, that the rind bursts... Suppose we start doubting everything we believe in, including the faith we have in one another... Suppose our sense of justice evaporates... Suppose everyone begins to seek their own justice... Wouldn’t we scatter everywhere like the seeds of a pomegranate bursting open? Pomegranate is a tale that begins with a woman seeking her own justice...

Somewhere in Between is a film project which explores how growing up and living in today’s world are tantamount to being in ‘total limbo’. The narrative focuses on the desires, dreams, cravings, viewpoints, expectations and loves of two adolescents stuck in the threshold of purgatory and chained to their anguish. It is the story of enduring a plastic world suppressed, de-valued and debased by artificial, illusory expectations - a process that also deepens immutable social inequalities.

After making several award-winning shorts in Turkey, Yeşim Ustaoğlu won international recognition for her 1999 film, Journey to the Sun, which received the Blue Angel Award and the Peace Prize in Berlin, among other prizes.

Zeynel’s mother Base, who lives in Elbistan, gave him only one of these recordings. She didn’t part with the others because she was worried they might get damaged or lost.

The story opens with a lavish wedding ceremony in rural Anatolia. A middle-aged groom with a large moustache and his bride, covered in a red bridal veil; guests dancing around them and guns fired into the air: an extravagant wedding ceremony is being held with two bands of drums and horns. At the end of the celebrations, which last until midnight, the bride is led ceremoniously to the bridal chamber. The bride and her sister-in-law are then left alone in the room, and the sister-in-law gives the bride a final briefing on nuptial customs. From now on, the camera remains inside the bridal chamber. With her face draped in a red veil, the bride sits waiting for the groom, reacting oddly to the noises she hears outside.

Reis Çelik (Ardahan, 1961) studied music and drama at the Istanbul State Conservatoire. In 1982, he began working as an economics and political correspondent for various national newspapers. After a succession of documentary films, he made his first feature Let There Be Light in 1996.

The festival provides the opportunity for women to be together with their dreams, ideas, productions, to watch women’s experiences as told by women and to watch examples of cinema that rarely reach commercial theatres.
