The 10 short films will meet with the audience on Saturday, November 25 at Pera Film. The directors of the jury award and people’s award travel to London to attend BFI Flare’s Film Festival in March 2018.
There will be a talk after the screening with the jury, director Umit Unal, producer Gavin Humphries and Pera Museum’s film and video programs curator Fatma Çolakoğlu.

A firm believer in the idea that a collection needs to be upheld at least by four generations and comparing this continuity to a relay race, Nahit Kabakcı began creating the Huma Kabakcı Collection from the 1980s onwards. Today, the collection can be considered one of the most important and outstanding examples among the rare, consciously created, and long-lasting ones of its kind in Turkey.
Pera Museum presents an exhibition of French artist Félix Ziem, one of the most original landscape painters of the 19th century. The exhibition Wanderer on the Sea of Light presents Ziem as an artist who left his mark on 19th century painting and who is mostly known for his paintings of Istanbul and Venice, where the city and the sea are intertwined. Through the exhibition, we will be sharing detailed information about the artist and the artworks.
