The documentary, which films the changes that trans man Jack (Jack Celeste) undergoes over the course of five years when he started the gender transition process in 2016, also records the increasing conservatism in Brazil during the process. Jointly directed by Coraci Ruiz and Julia Matos, the film shows glimpses from Jack's life, showing how to blossom through the cracks of concrete. The film, which gives its audience hope to hold on in dark times, signals the glitches of the cis-tem as well. The documentary, which has been screened at many queer film festivals from Brazil to France, from Peru to Canada, portrays not only of its main character, but also of its country.
This is one of Stanisław Chlebowski’s larger canvasses dealing with themes other than battles; only Ottoman Life at the Sweet Waters now at the Istanbul Military Museum can compare with it in size.
Based on similar examples by the European painters in various collections, this work is one of the portraits of Mihrimah Sultan, who was depicted rather often in the 16th century.
Inspired by the exhibition Istanbuls Today, Today's Stories series continues with Hande Ortaç's story "Felis"! This series gathers short stories written by authors encouraged by the photographs in the exhibition.
