Episode 5

Denial of the spectator

In this episode, we discuss the significance of witnessing and the prevalence of silence that accompanies it with psychiatrist Cem Kaptanoğlu, film director Emin Alper ve cinema critic Senem Aytaç. As we take cinema of Turkey as the starting point, we elaborate on how far directors reflect what we experience into their films, punishment practices against the ones that do, and the attitude of the audience.
