The first-ever “Turkish Film Festival” brought together well-known figures from the world of cinema in Düsseldorf, Germany.
Held at CineStar under the auspices of the Consulate General of Türkiye in Düsseldorf on Sunday, the festival was attended by veteran actors, directors and producers of Turkish cinema, as well as film enthusiasts.
Master artist Hülya Koçyiğit, one of the “Four Leaf Clover” stars of Turkish cinema, attended the festival as the guest of honor.
In a statement to the Anadolu Agency (AA) correspondent, Koçyiğit said that the movies she shot in Germany hold an important place in her career.
She noted that some of the longest periods she spent in Germany were during the filming of movies there and that the movie “Almanya Acı Vatan” in particular was screened at many festivals around the world. She said, “While filming those movies, I closely observed the way of life of people here, their expectations and the kinds of difficulties they faced.”
