Director Helin Çelik’s gaze attentively lingers on her protagonists’ gestures and facial expressions as they unfold in the claustrophobic interiors they have taken refuge in, via long takes and Impressionist-derived touches. The traumatic events are not evoked in a factual manner, but come across instead as affective sedimentations, and the bleakest thoughts uttered, contradictory at times, are destigmatized. By giving suffering and angst an audiovisual form, Çelik creates an empathetic confessional safe space that strives to allow survivors to escape from trauma.
