Gümüşgöze, formerly known as Yakto, is a neighborhood in Harbiye, outside the center of Defne, where people mostly live in low-rise houses located in small gardens. Like many parts of the city, Gümüşgöze was seriously affected by the February 6 Earthquakes. With lives lost, houses destroyed, ties broken, daily life itself has become a "coping process"... In the post-earthquake days, when the support from the municipality and the government oscillates between absence and inadequacy, the people of Gümüşgöze in Hatay blend the solidarity practices they received from history and culture with what they have learned today and try to chart their own path.
Yakto Cannot Be Abandoned! tries to witness this process by knowing and seeing why people want to stay in Gümüşgöze despite all this poverty.
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.
The New Year is more than just a date change on the calendar. It often marks a turning point where the weight of past experiences is felt or the uncertainty of the future is faced. This season, Pera Film highlights films that delve into themes of hope, regret, nostalgia, and new beginnings.
