Ufuk Emiroglu

Successful real estate agent Sevda is on the verge of closing a major project in Istanbul. However, just before construction is set to begin, she encounters an unexpected obstacle: an old Ottoman cemetery and its elderly caretaker who refuses to leave.

A documentary tragicomedy of a father-daughter relationship, told by the subjective perspective of the young director. She tries to understand how a revolutionary could have become a criminal and an alcoholic, and why he abandoned his family. Freely juggling between documentary, fiction and animation, the director takes us on a journey around the world. The daughter of a former communists visits the ports of the revolt, where communities are trying to realize the concrete utopia.

In this autofiction, the director puts herself on stage. She talks about herself and the years that pass too quickly without us having time to notice. Through a meeting with a virtuoso guitarist, she reveals her love life and her intimacy. A (self)portrait imbued with poetry.
