Yeni Han
Synopsis
A film about migration, otherness, and the fragile possibility of living together. In Istanbul’s Aksaray district, traces of distant geographies collide — Syria, Somalia, East Turkestan, Kazakhstan. At the heart of this convergence is Yeni Han, where translated documents mirror transformed lives. It’s a place of hope and confusion, of shifting identities and uncertain futures. Meanwhile, just outside, locals and newcomers share the same streets yet remain separated by invisible distances. This film listens to the silence between them — the hesitation, fear, and unspoken boundaries that shape coexistence in today’s Istanbul.
