Pera Film celebrates International Women's Day with the online screening of the award-winning film March 8, 2020: A Memoir.
Produced by Fırat Yücel and Aylin Kuryel, March 8, 2020: A Memoir explores what the "Touristic Cameras" overlooking Taksim Square left in the dark during the Feminist Night March in 2020. Through screenshots, the film travels in time to record the memory of the last mass action in Istanbul before the pandemic. Within the scope of the program, an online discussion held with the moderation of writer and academician Begüm Özden Fırat, featuring Fırat Yücel and Aylin Kuryel will also be available to access.
The film, which won the FIPRESCI Prize at the 2023 Istanbul Film Festival and the online discussion can be accessed via the Pera Museum's website from March 4 to March 11.

Among the most interesting themes in the oeuvre of Prassinos are cypresses, trees, and Turkish landscapes. The cypress woods in Üsküdar he saw every time he stepped out on the terrace of their house in İstanbul or the trees in Petits Champs must have been strong images of childhood for Prassinos.
Celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, Pera Museum invites artist Benoît Hamet to reinterpret key pieces from its collections, casting a humourous eye over ‘historical’ events, both imagined and factual.
