Esra Saydam & Nisan Dağ : 2014
Things I Cannot Tell
Damla, a Turkish immigrant estranged from her homeland, lives in New York City with her husband Kevin, expecting their first child. But she continues to be haunted by a secret that has prevented her from enjoying her seemingly perfect life in America. Overwhelmed to discover that her cousin is selling their childhood home, Damla returns to her homeland, where she is reintroduced to her family and her first love, Burak. Once there, she will have to confront everything she fled from eight years before. Abandoned all those years ago, the former boyfriend is aloof today, but Damla feels she still cares for him. Regardless, Damla has to find a way to confront him with a secret that she kept for years before she can move on. A highly personal, character-driven drama about a woman who is stuck between her past and present and can't let go of her first love halfway across the world. Esra Saydam and Nisan Dağ's feature debut premiered at İstanbul Film Festival 2014, and screened in competition at Titanic International Film Festival Budapest 2015.
