In 1970s England, troubled musician Ian Curtis (Sam Riley) rises to fame as lead singer of the band Joy Division. A husband and father, Curtis begins to feel the strain of his band’s growing success, as his marriage to wife Deborah (Samantha Morton) crumbles and his epilepsy gets worse. Nominated for two BAFTAs and hailed at Cannes, Anton Corbijn’s Control is a gripping biopic beautifully shot in crisp monochrome.
Screenings can be seen with a discounted museum ticket (8 TL). No reservations taken.

Pera Museum Blog has published a series of “Techno – Dystopia” stories in collaboration with Turkey’s Fantasy and Science Fiction Arts Association (FABISAD). The Association’s member writers shared these newly commissioned short stories inspired by the artworks of Katherine Behar as part of the Museum’s Data’s Entry exhibition.
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.
“The portrait tells us that there is an inner and an outer dimension of the human condition; it provides—or should provide—information about both the physical and psychological character of an individual.”
