The Ladder
Directing by Mustafa Yeşil

The actor who has to go abroad because of a political case is playing cross flute. In the meantime, a woman whom we think might be the wife or the girl friend of the actor is sleeping insensibly despite the noise of the television and the sound of the flute in the bedroom which can be also seen from the living room. After a while, the actor gives up playing the flute and he heads towards the bedroom. He dresses up. He returns to the living room and starts rolling a cigarette. After rolling the cigarette, the actor returns to the bedroom and he wears his coat, then he heads towards the door of the flat. He wears his shoes and goes out from his flat. In front of the door of his flat he lights his cigarette which he has rolled inside the flat. In the meanwhile, from the next flat the sound of pop music comes as a parallel to the feelings of unawareness and insensitivity which dominates the whole apartment. The actor is startled by the sound of a couple who are fighting due to financial difficulty. After being convinced by the normality of the situation the actor proceeds on his way. Coming to the below floor, the actor eavesdrops on the death of the workers which is one of the biggest problem of Turkey. On the television, the workers who have died at a dock are being mentioned. But, the actor does not find this subject to be worth being watched as a parallel to the stress on the insensitivity which dominates the whole movie; he proceeds on his way again. Descending the next floor, the actor comes across with the concerns of a national party about the government that is one of the main problems of Turkey. For a while he listens to the door of the flat from which the sounds are coming then he descends another floor. At that point his phone rings. On the phone he tells about the reasons which push him to go abroad, to the person opposite of him and in Kurdish he tells of possibilities that he might goes through if he stays in Turkey. The actor will be imprisoned if he stays in Turkey and certainly he has to flee abroad. When the actor is in on the phone, the azan calls to pray. Finishing his phone call, the actor descends another floor. On this floor he witnesses a dialogue between a mother and her daughter which is a different reflection of the Kurdish problem. The actor listens to this door for a while. He sees a group of students, trying to change the electric meter to use illegal electricity. Hearing the footsteps, the students flee their flat. We see our actor on the basement. The actor heads towards the outer door of the apartment. At that point, he realizes that the cigarette which he has lighted at the exit of his flat is about to finish. He throws away the cigarette randomly to the bin in the garden. There are two books in the bin. The first book is that Is There any Creator Who Is Interested in You? The second one is that Bernard Lewis' The Birth of Modern Turkey which emphasizes on the Modern Turkey that causes all the antidemocratic practices and problems, seen through the ladder. After a while the book in the bin starts burning. The azan continues praying. THE END
