I am a filmmaker with a wide range of interest, writing, directing, producing and acting. After completing my Masters in Film Studies at the University of Amsterdam, I focused on documentary production [Julia Ton (GRAND THEFT HAMLET, 2024), Mari Soppela (MOTHER LAND, 2022) and Jacco Groen (LILET NEVER HAPPENED, 2012)] before ending up as a production manager in the commercial department of production company 100% (formerly HALAL) for 4 years.After my first script ‘This is Me’ was a semi-finalist in the international drama competition ScreenCraft in 2020, I decided to focus more on creating my own stories. My films are deeply inspired by my culture as a Turkish woman and find a balance between drama, humor and politics.

I just wrote and directed a short film called "Rotten"

It is a film about Zehra who feels stuck at her father’s Turkish supermarket in Amsterdam. She starts clashing with outspoken customer Pelin—only to discover she's a fellow Turk. As political rhetoric blares from the radio, the line between loyalty and identity starts to rot.

Working on directing more cool things. Stay tuned!
