Shahmeran

As ancient narratives, myths emerge with new forms in every epoch as the basic fictions of Human experience. While creating this movie called "Sahmeran", it was tried to understand the cultural depth and the cosmic imagination of the geography that has been going on for ages, extending from the masnavis, which are the latest versions of the myth, to the Sumerian sources, the oldest known versions. As a result of the literature review, film events were established by taking inspiration from all this accumulation, and intertextual ties were built with visual and verbal implications. Thus, beyond being a dry repetition of a folk tale, a cinematographic work with cultural depth and sub-narratives was produced, in which the structures of classical literature were synthesized in terms of plot, wordplay and descriptions. In order to establish the fantastic and mystical universe of the film, it was preferred to be made with 2D cut-out animation technique.
