Film: Drifting

(Somnur Vardar, 2023, 67 min, Turkey)

While watching the dramatic changes in urban texture, we meet two young Kurdish cousins working in construction, just like their fathers and grandfathers did for decades. They both dream of becoming teachers, wanting to break the vicious cycle of construction work. From dormitories to May Day street protests, we get glimpses of their life, hearing their stories of struggle, resistance, families, their hopes and dreams.

Speaker: Somnur Vardar, filmmaker.
