MOMMY I'M SCARED

MOMMY I'M SCARED (KORKUYORUM ANNE), 2004
Türkiye | 35mm, Color, 128’ | Turkish
Cast: Ali Düşenkalkar, Işıl Yücesoy, Köksal Engür

The film begins with Ali’s accident in which he loses his memory. With Ali’s confusion all the “characters” of the film find themselves in a state of chaos: the chaos of life. A precious ring passing from hand to hand and seeking its true owner, the story of a robbery, and a mock police investigation further spice up this chaos.

“The director has made excellent use of Istanbul. What we have here is a true fabric with the hooting of ferries, and seagulls, streets, and rooftops.Mommy I’m Scaredis a tale about all those wonderful things we have lost and about us as organims.” – Murat Erşahin
