Synopsis

Director's biography
I was born on October 26, 2004, in Beyoğlu, Istanbul. I completed my middle and high school education at Tarhan College. During my middle school years, I won first place in a district-wide photography competition. I competed as a licensed rower for many years, earning various awards, and also acted in several music videos.
My passion for cinema began as I took on various roles on documentary sets and projects. I graduated with High Honors in 2026 from the Department of Cinema and Television at Işık University, Faculty of Art, Design, and Architecture, which I entered in 2022. Throughout my studies, I served as a camera operator for university events.
Professionally, I work in photography and as a photography assistant, while also serving as a videographer and photographer at Alfavizyon Film Ltd. Contributing to significant projects in the art world, I undertook the archive photography of the master artist Balkan Naci İslimyeli.
I made my directorial debut with the film Hiç (Nothingness), and to date, I have directed a total of three films. Through my films, I have participated in various film festivals, reaching wider audiences with my work.
