uluslararas istanbul film festival



uluslararasi istanbul film festivali

The 25th annual International Istanbul Film Festival starts in about a

week and a half, with a tempting lineup of Turkish and international

cinema. I'd particularly like to see this new film by director and

video-installation artist Kutlug Ataman. There's a "Human Rights in

Cinema" series (topics range from the plight of Kurdish women, to the

rise of neo-Nazis in Europe, and the stories of hijras, plus a

screening of Gaza Strip director James Longley's new film Iraq in

Fragments) and an impressive documentary lineup. Oh to be in Istanbul

in the spring.
