The Antalya Golden Orange Film Festival, hosted by Antalya Metropolitan Municipality, continues with film screenings, talks and panel sessions.
As part of the festival, director Büşra Bülbül’s first feature-length fiction film, "About a Mother," co-produced by TRT, was screened for audiences at the Aspendos Hall of the Atatürk Cultural Center (AKM).
The film’s subject
Starring Sevda Erginci, Duygu Köse, Ümran Şakır, Osman Doğan, Ecmel İs Ergür and Ahmet Çelik, the film tells the story of Sibel, who struggles to keep her husband, who is in the final stage of liver failure, alive.
Speaking after the screening, Büşra Bülbül said she was excited to attend the Antalya Golden Orange Film Festival.

Bülbül said Sibel’s inner conflict takes shape behind a life that appears calm and simple. The director said she aimed to portray a woman struggling in everyday life and emotions that are not easily visible from the outside through quieter moments.
Erginci describes the character’s moral dilemma
Sevda Erginci, who plays Sibel, said that while preparing for the role, she reflected on the circumstances under which the boundaries of morality are defined.
Erginci said she realized through Sibel that moral boundaries are connected to circumstances. The actress said the character’s struggle continues while she sleeps, works, looks after her children and even laughs, adding that it extends into every moment of life.
