Yeniden Sinematek Kökler ve Kırılmalar Çatlak Gösterimi

About this event

Yeniden Sinematek, a film programme of the Culture and Arts Branch of Izmir Metropolitan Municipality, screens Catlak at the Elhamra Stage on Thursday 26 November 2026 at 19:30 as part of its Kokler ve Kirilmalar, Roots and Fractures, season. Entry is free with no ticket needed. Catlak is a 2020 Turkish drama of 82 minutes in Turkish, written and directed by Fikret Reyhan, with art direction by Meral Aktan and a cast of Hakan Salinmis, Sureyya Kilimci, Hakan Emre Unal and Giray Altinok. Fatih, who worked as a migrant labourer in England, borrowed a large sum from his friend Ayhan to send to his family in Turkey. When the debt is still unpaid after Fatih returns home, Ayhan comes to Turkey, visits the family and asks for his money, and the demand lights a fuse in a family that lives in one building with intertwined economic interests, bringing every hidden conflict to the surface. The programme lists awards including a Special Jury Award and Best Actress for Sureyya Kilimci at the 2020 Antalya Golden Orange Film Festival and Best Director, Best Screenplay and the FIPRESCI award at the 2021 Istanbul Film Festival. Art director Meral Aktan joins a talk after the screening, and Meral Aktan also leads a masterclass on production design and art direction at the same stage the next day, 27 November at 14:00.
