As Shadows Fade

Directed by Burcu Aykar

Esin (27), a high school teacher, leading a monotonous life, lives with her father, Taner (55). One day, Deniz (21), a distant relative, arrives to take shelter in their home, to attend her university studies. At first Esin is reluctant to let her stay. However, Deniz, with her vivacity, changes the atmosphere in the house. As much as Esin is cold and joyless, Deniz is passionate and cheerful. In many ways her exact opposite, Deniz awakens Esin to the existence of side roads and hopes in life.
