The Poet (2020) takes you into a thick atmosphere of introspection and surrealism. Ahmet Dirimoğlu, a novelist grappling with psychological themes, retreats to his forest home, and the quietude quickly turns into a psychological maze after a mysterious car accident. It's this incident that blurs the lines of reality and fiction for him, creating an unsettling tone that lingers. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing the viewer to absorb Ahmet's descent into confusion. There’s an intriguing use of practical effects that heightens the sense of disorientation, and the performance is quite haunting, capturing the essence of an artist spiraling into the depths of his own mind. It's definitely a distinctive piece that invites reflection.
