On the Way to School (2008)
One year in the life of a Turkish teacher, teaching the Turkish language to Kurdish children in a remote village in Turkey. The children can't speak Turkish, the teacher can't speak Kurdish and is forced to become an exile in his own country. On the Way to School is a film about a Turkish teacher who is alone in a village as an authority of the state, and about his interaction with the Kurdish children who have to learn Turkish. The film witnesses the communication problem emphasizing the loneliness of a teacher in a different community and culture; and the changes brought up by his presence into this different community during one year. The film chronicles one school year, starting from September 2007 until the departure of the teacher for summer holiday in June 2008. During this period, they begin to know and understand each other mutually and slowly.

House (2025)
Hülya and Mustafa try to organize their tent life so that their children can continue with their lives. The youngest child, İbo, is an exuberant boy full of joy. Having suddenly become homeless, he has also tasted the freedom of being able to go out to the streets at any moment, and prefers to spend all his time playing outside instead of going to school. Neither İbo nor his family are fully aware of the traumatic impact of homelessness. They act as if they had always lived in a tent, behaving as though everything were perfectly normal. They believe that their life in the tent is temporary and spend their days making plans to build a new home. From a distance, they appear ordinary, just like any happy family. However, as time passes quickly, their plans gradually give way to despair.

The Stone (2017)
Tas (Rock) is a film that presents a cross-section of the life of a family living a hard life in the countryside. It is a touch of sadness in the life of people living in nature- even as a part of it. And that life is nothing more than the waiting of a woman and man who lost their son. After waiting for many years, the family tries to get rid of the uncertainty by believing that the wounded man they found at the door is Selim (Ahmet Varli), their son.
