Ilias Apostolou, a young furrier who has had a hard time under the dictatorship, leaves Castoria in 1971 with a photograph he finds in the street in order to go to France, to a distant relative of his, Gerassimos Tzivas, who has been living there since 1950 and whom he asks for help in finding work in Paris. A misunderstanding is created around this photograph, which sets off a series of events that culminate in a dramatic finale.
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.
He had imagined the court room as a big place. It wasn’t. It was about the size of his living room, with an elevation at one end, with a dais on it. The judges and the attorneys sat there. Below it was an old wooden rail, worn out in some places. That was his place. There was another seat for his lawyer. At the back, about 20 or 30 chairs were stowed out for the non-existent crowd.
