Reviews
“My goal is to create a contrast between futuristic and realistic sci-fi scenes of an Ankara house in 1979 in a documentary style. I intended to depict the strange socio-political atmosphere in the country before the 1980 coup in the most candid way through the eyes of children.”
Ilayda Iseri (Filmfreeway).
