Pera Film welcomes the ReelLife screening series, an initiative presented in collaboration with the UNDP Istanbul Regional Hub and Columbia Global Centers | Istanbul.
Nothing brings you into an issue quite like seeing it. As everyday citizens and audiences, we are inundated by and oversaturated with information, but our knowledge is often limited. ReelLife screening series provides an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding through the lens of compelling stories and conversations.
Running from November 16 to December 12, the series of screenings will include Through the Night, which delves into the lives of individuals navigating the challenges of a 24-hour daycare center in the context of work culture; Landfall, a contemporary portrayal of Puerto Rico grappling with concurrent economic and environmental crises; and Delikado, set in one of the Philippines' burgeoning tourism destinations, exploring the intricate balance between economic development and environmental preservation.
Each screening will be followed by a discussion about the film and its social issues with filmmakers and experts.
All films will be screened with Turkish and English subtitles. Post-screening discussions will be in English.
This program’s screenings are free admission. Drop in, no reservations. As per legal regulations, all our screenings are restricted to persons over 18 years of age unless stated otherwise.

Organized in collaboration with the Giacometti Foundation, Paris, the exhibition explores Giacometti’s prolific life, most of which the artist led in his studio in Montparnasse, through the works of his early period as well his late work, including one unfinished piece. Devoted to Giacometti’s early works, the first part of the exhibition demonstrates the influence of Giovanni Giacometti, the father of the artist and a Swiss Post-Impressionist painter himself, on Giacometti’s output during these years and his role in his son’s development.
Ali Sami is born in Rusçuk in 1866, and moves to İstanbul. Because his family is registered in the Beylerbeyi quarter of Üsküdar, Ali Sami is also called Üsküdarlı Ali Sami. He graduates from the Mühendishane-i Berri-i Hümayun in 1866 and becomes a teacher of painting and photography at the school.
