A Memory of Friendship

Director: Baran İsmail Ulaş 
Estonia, Turkey, 2024, 16’, DCP, color 
Turkish with English subtitles  

A filmmaker embarks on a journey back to his parent’s house, seeking to make sense of his existence. As he traces the origins of his identity and life choices, he explores the emotional legacy of his family’s past. While uncovering his parents' struggles and how love held them together, the character guides the audience on a deeply personal journey of self-discovery, reminding us that sometimes the answers we seek in distant places are closer than we think. 

The crew will attend.
