Turkish chat

A short film with the developed idea of "chat is not made only through the internet the 'Turkish Chat' never..." and by the humorist act of narrating the mixture of the graffiti and recent chat culture. The whole movie is prepared in English with the idea of international film festivals. When a young man goes out of the underground, he wants to go to "the water closet" but all "the water closets" and urinals are busy. After a few minutes, a man goes out of "the water closet". A young man gets into that water closet. After he enters that water closet, he replies to one of the messages written there, and all his world changes from that moment. Afterwards, he has only one aim to look at his place in the water closet. It's a duty like looking at his e-mails. Also, even "the special songs" that he listens to in the underground don't help him to give up on this strange game. But an inevitable end is waiting for him in this game. Every beauty has an end.

Shinjuku 1973, 25pm

2006 • 16 min
This 1973 work by photographer Daido Moriyama features footage captured with a portable 8mm film camera mounted on a motorcycle, documenting the nocturnal streetscapes of Shinjuku. The resulting imagery—blurred, shaky, out of focus, high-contrast, and lacking deliberate composition—unfolds as a stream of flickering lights that emerge and vanish amidst the flow of the city at night. Accompanied by the drone of the motorcycle engine and the honking of taxis, the piece lays bare the tedium, darkness, and disorder of the urban environment, while also evoking a deeply nostalgic sentiment for life in Shinjuku.
