4 Star Short Drama

Tofiq Rzayer (Aftermath) writes, directs, screenwrites, cinamatography and edits this film showing his dedications to his craft. This is in my opinion his best to date. With tight filming you get the feeling you are there with the characters and you are a part of the mystery.

Mert (Deniz Aslim) gets a text from his friend Ali, it is short and cryptic “Find me”, soon after he gets a frantic phone call from Ali’s girl fiancée Ceren (Gizem Aybike Shahin, Aftermath).

Ceren comes over to Mert’s and they discuss the missing Ali and why he may have disappeared as there was no answer from his phone then it was switched off. Even though they had had an argument it was nothing to run away for and Mert is all for letting both cool down, believing he’ll turn up well in a couple of days, that is until Cem (Mehmet Samer) tells Mert that he saw Ali heading for the woods, not a place he normally frequents, curious Mert takes a walk down to the woods.
