For Birds’ Sake

On 20 June, 2018

A symbol of schism and encounter, a transcontinental city, Istanbul has always been a source of great stories. But this is not a story about Istanbul; it is a story from a feminine perspective about how a group of men dedicate their lives to the breeding of goldfinches and greenfinches: a mysterious bond full of contradictions; of love, possession and pleasure. The contradictions of the masculine and the feminine. The feminine caress alongside the power of men. Breeders competing for the best singing bird… And two women who learn to listen and speak.
