In Istanbul, Faruk, a man in his 90s, becomes the central character of his daughter’s film about the impending demolition of his block of flats. Faruk attends building management meetings, hoping to delay the demolition process of the building he has been living in for decades. Gradually reality and fiction intertwine and the line between the two starts to blur. Prêmio FIPRESCI Panorama Berlin 2024.
