M. Tayfur Aydın

Şırnak is a Kurdish city on the border of Turkey, Iraq and Syria. In 2007, drama teacher Tayfur began recording candid interviews with children aged between 8 and 14. They were once enthusiastic, honest and full of hope for a brighter future. Today, such interviews are not even possible anymore. The school has been destroyed. Women's rights are fragile. People's mental health is deteriorating and self-confidence is lost. Bigger ambitions have faded. In 2016, war erupted on the streets of Şırnak.

In the mid-1990s, one morning in Istanbul, a young man named Deniz Şahin is abducted from his street by armed and civilian individuals. The young man is taken to the interrogation center of the counter-guerrilla organization JİTEM, and his captors are members of the JİTEM team. The team's goal is to extract information about the organization's activities from Deniz Şahin, whom they accused of being a member of the organization.
