English with Turkish subtitles

Directed by Jim Sharman, The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a tribute to B-movies and remains an enigmatic, nightmarish musical that defies classification, even today. Melting horror and science fiction in a musical crucible, the film starring Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, and Barry Bostwick, centres on the various wild experiences encountered in Dr. Frank-N-Furter's castle by two young individuals, Brad and Janet, who lose their way in the forest and, as a result of knocking on the "right" door for help, meet Dr. Frank-N-Furter. Their story takes an increasingly surreal turn as they become embroiled in the eccentric events unfolding within the confines of Dr. Frank-N-Furter's castle—a place where a visitor from a transgender planet endeavors to craft the perfect human while gathering insights about Earth.

The Ottoman Way of Serving Coffee

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.
