WE LIVE IN A CAGE ANYWAYS

Dırector's Statement

This film made by various artists from mostly Bogazici University. If you don’t know, new rector assigned by government without any election. There are huge student protests since 2nd of January 2021. 9 of our friends still in prison and many of them prisoned at their home from 6 to 12 months. I would like to step on this topic with this film from my perspective, BDSM, relation with restraint and master & slave dialectic.

The film discusses power relationships between

authority and individuals. It is an effort to make processes of domination visible through reflecting on responsibilities of different hegemonic subject positions, while doing that the film also demonstrate the recent political conditions in Turkey, especially in Bogazici University which occupied by the police.
