Director Statement

Sait Faik Abasıyanık’s Four Positive is one of the stories which tell the artist in a best way, according to me. It is a naive “moment” story on choosing and designation, human and lack of communication. Since I want to transmit Four Positive to many people, I wanted to adapt the story to short film. I aimed to tell lots of sorrows within a single place by restricting the story to two benches at a train station. Another important point for me is to bring this project into action with Ilyas Salman, one of the most prominent actors of Turkish cinema. I learned a lot from him. From now on, you’ll also look closer to these three persons’ sorrow at a train station.
