Krizalit

A short film that follows Deniz, an enigmatic young woman drawn into the vibrant life of modern Turkey. Alternating between the euphoria of her love with a Turkish woman, Melisa, and the weight of feeling like an outsider, the story weaves subtle hints about Deniz's true nature - inviting contemplation on identity and belonging. Set against the backdrop of a country in flux, "Krizalit" delicately portrays the healing journey of existing within a city so capable of profound love, yet at times challenged to extend that love to others.

Directed by Naz Tokgoz, Arantxa Ibarra
