Tomris Giritlioglu – Güz sancisi AKA Pains of Autumn (2009)
As the year 1955 is moving towards autumn, Turkey’s increasingly tense political atmosphere starts to cast its dark shadow on the glittering beauty of Beyoglu. Behcet is the only son of a father in whom the government and the bureaucracy take a close interest due to his strong influence in Antakya. While working as a research assistant at the Faculty of Law in Istanbul, Behcet is falling under the sway of extreme nationalism as a result of his upbringing and the influential role model of his father. The only thing that causes Behcet to stumble on this road is the woman he secretly observes through the window of the apartment opposite his own. This woman, who is aware that she is being observed by Behcet, is Elena. She is one of those peerless beauties making up the cosmopolitan kaleidoscope of Beyoglu. A prostitute with a childlike spirit, she is sold off to high-level bureaucrats by her grandmother, who herself is a former prostitute.Nevertheless, an enigmatic interdependence exists between grandmother and granddaughter, which extends beyond the solidarity of being non-muslim in a muslim society. The paths of Behcet and Elena cross in the fog of the tense political atmosphere of the “6-7 September Incidents” as it begins to descend slowly upon Beyoglu. In the midst of a “Deep State” operation, singling out non-muslims as the enemy, the uncontainable love between Elena and Behcet is struggling to defend itself… The two young people are on the same side in the country of love, but on different sides in the country they live in. As Behcet walks the political line drawn by the pen of a militant columnist in colours that get darker by the day, every step he takes towards the morning of the 6th of September takes him farther away from his love, Elena, an enemy national. Elena, on the other hand, while trying with her love for Behcet to break through the walls of a dead-end destiny drawn up for her by her grandmother, finds herself in yet another cul-de-sac: the walls of a militant policy that has taken her lover hostage…
