Directed by Lucrecia Martel, one of independent cinema's most daring and consistent auteur filmmakers, The Headless Woman competed for the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival. This haunting allegory traces the lingering effects of trauma while delicately unravelling the complexities of class dynamics and the roles assigned to women in a male-dominated world.
Veronica, a wealthy middle-aged dentist, momentarily loses focus while driving on a rural road and feels the impact of hitting something. This incident marks not only a physical accident but also the beginning of a psychological disconnection. Dazed and detached from her identity and reality, she moves through life like a sleepwalker.
As time passes, the unsettling thought that she might have killed someone takes root in her mind—especially after a young boy's body is discovered in a roadside canal. As she struggles to fill the gaps in her memory, the powerful forces around her systematically erase the truth.
Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
In 1493, exactly 500 years ago, Leonardo da Vinci was finishing the preparations for casting the equestrian monument (4 times life size), which Ludovico il Moro, Duke of Milan commissioned in memory of his father some 12 years earlier.
Inspired by the exhibition And Now the Good News, which focusing on the relationship between mass media and art, we prepared horoscope readings based on the chapters of the exhibition. Using the popular astrological language inspired by the effects of the movements of celestial bodies on people, these readings with references to the works in the exhibition make fictional future predictions inspired by the horoscope columns that we read in the newspapers with the desire to receive good news about our day.
