SIBEL
Overview
Intro
SIBEL
Cagla Zencirci and Guillaume Giovanetti are a Franco-Turkish director couple who have made a number of documentaries, but here, with Sibel, offer us their third feature film. Part documentary, part fable, part realism, the film takes us to a small Turkish village where Sibel, a woman who became mute at the age of 5, lives with her widowed father and younger sister. Rejected by the community because of her handicap, she makes it her strength and takes advantage of it to take liberties that no other woman can. Proud and determined, she convinces her father of her rightful place in society and gives courage to her sister, humiliated by the community after a cancelled wedding. In this Turkish region, lost in the middle of steep mountains where villages are separated by deep valleys, a language has emerged that Sibel uses to communicate with her loved ones. A truly astonishing language to discover... The screening will be followed by a discussion with members of the community and a Turkish-flavored aperitif. Free admission and hat at the door.
