Şehirden taşraya yeni Türk sinemasında toplumsal hareketlilik

This thesis deals with the reflection of the concept of social mobility from the city to the province in the movies produced between the years 1990 and 2000, when the New Turkish Cinema came to the fore in Turkey. Before 1990, the mobility from the countryside to the city was on the contrary, towards the countryside again. For this reason, the homeland of the New Turkish Cinema is the countryside. Especially after 1990, the increasing importance of the countryside in cinema means a mood for the characters rather than being a place. In a perspective stretching from the end of the 90s to the 2000s, the countryside is sometimes defined as a place to live in and sometimes to return to. After the transition from the city to the countryside was explained in the cinema during the Yeşilçam period, the return to the countryside in the New Turkish Cinema was tried to be explained through the films "Kış Uykusu", "Yumurta", "Ana Yurdu" and "Kelebekler". The main reason for limiting the study to these four films is that these films, which were shot in different periods and by different directors, can unite on common ground thematically. The plots of these four films unite under the themes of returning to the countryside as a form of reconstruction, returning to the countryside after trauma, returning to the countryside as an intellectual crisis, and returning to the countryside in the pursuit of lost time.
