The Annesi Ninja 2026

Directed by Sinan Yabgu Ünal

Kerim, haunted by past trauma, refuses to speak about what happened in his relationship with Melis. Two years later, they return to the island where their memories lie buried, hoping for a peaceful holiday. Minor tensions grow into tragicomic clashes as silences begin to speak. The vacation spirals into an endless argument; hunger and exhaustion push them to their limits. After an accident, Kerim—so quick to judge others—must confront his own conscience as truth and lies blur. Told in a real-time single sequence from day to night, the film builds relentless tension within the island’s claustrophobic atmosphere.
