Declaration
film director
“Media is power. Power is our fate. This horrifying proposition is what my film is about. […] Bombarded by images and text, the human mind reduces to a kind of self-indulgence and extreme consumerism. This, in turn, damages our capacity for real empathy. Reality is owned by the media patrons, and so, therefore, are our emotions and behaviors […]. Turkey has become a prime example of a dysfunctional relationship between the media and its citizens. With the subjugation of media outlets by the government, democracy began to fade […]. The dynamism and subtext employed in horror films allowed me to create a link to the social terror I experience
