Ataberk awarded at the İFSAK 43rd National Short Film and Documentary Competition
Our third-year student, Ataberk Eyolcu, returned from the 43rd National Short Film and Documentary Competition of İFSAK (Istanbul Photography and Cinema Amateurs Association) with the first prize in the experimental category with his film "Thinking Beyond".
The film, shot under the supervision of Lecturer Ali Matay, Dr. Deborah Hardt, and Dr. Hazal Bayar as part of the CDM 202: Theory and Practice of Moving Images II course, "explores the abandoned and ominous Lübbey village, which is plagued by rumors, and contemplates what could exist beyond life and death", as expressed in Ataberk's words.
Out of a total of 340 films in the fiction, documentary, animation, and experimental genres, 46 films passed the preliminary selection and were showcased at the 29th İFSAK Short Film Festival.
The films that passed the preliminary selection were evaluated by director-screenwriter Ümit Ünal, academic-cinema writer Ayça Çiftçi, and documentary filmmaker-educator-writer Enis Rıza Sakızlı. The award-winning films were announced and awards were presented to their directors at the ceremony which was held at the French Cultural Center on May 27, 2023.
