Synopsis: For over 2,000 years, man has been searching for the final resting place of Noah’s Ark. Though there have been many attempts, few have been able to fully explore the one place specifically noted in the Bible: Mount Ararat. Located in eastern Turkey, Agri Dagh or “The Painful Mountain”, is the tallest peak in the region and lies in the very centre of a centuries old, geopolitically unstable hot spot. With constant threats of deadly rock slides, hidden crevasses, and glacial ice falls, the Kurdish rebel-held mountain poses great risk to any explorer, let alone those performing a thorough scientific investigation.

Synopsis: Ten years after being thrown out of her parental home, Nur hears that her mother is at death’s door. Taking her young daughter with her, Nur hurries back to her father’s world to see, and reconcile with her mother before it is too late. While the universal theme of mother-daughter relationships lies at the centre of the film, this is underpinned by an allusive subtext of incest, one of most common but least addressed social problems in Turkey. The individual stories of the family members combine with a sense of hope fuelled by tragedy to paint a portrait of the socially disconnected.
Director: Mehmet Ery?lmaz graduated from the radio and television department of Marmara University. He continued his studies at the cinema and television department of Mimar Sinan University. After graduation, he started writing and directing his own short, experimental and documentary films. He has also earned recognition for his series of documentary films on traditional Turkish music.

Synopsis: Mahir, a famous musician with a personality to match, has been having a secret romantic relationship with his daughter’s friend Duru. Duru’s father Ali is honoured to have met Mahir, but he is a traditional, family-oriented man. The product of an old-school notion of what roles men and women should play in society. He takes his daughter to the gynaecologist regularly to assure himself that she’s a virgin and therefore marriageable. But conservatism doesn’t preclude hypocrisy: Ali has secrets of his own. Mahir and Duru drift apart just before Ali can learn about their relationship. But Duru is a spirited young woman with a mind of her own... “The search of one’s own nature in the secret areas one creates, the journeys to the profundity of one’s soul, the shame, the desire to hide, acquired in society through experienced behaviour patterns – and in this context they don’t judge but reflect social reflexes.” -- Selim Evci
Director: Born in Istanbul in 1975, Turkish filmmaker Selim Evci studied at Maltepe University and took his master’s in film from Beykent University. He directed a documentary, Red, in 2001, and founded his own production company, Evci Films, in 2006.
