Sahin Kirici

Sahin Kirici’s filmography isn’t just a random list of titles—it’s a bizarre, fascinating ride through all sorts of cinematic landscapes. First up, there’s “Bana Masal Anlatma” (2015). It’s not your typical fairy tale adaptation. Instead, it’s this quirky, modern mix of humor and heartfelt moments, set against the chaos of everyday life in Istanbul. The story spins around a bus driver with a knack for getting tangled in far-fetched adventures, and honestly, it’s hard not to root for these offbeat characters as they stumble through misunderstandings and chance encounters. The city itself feels like another character, full of color and unpredictability. Then you’ve got “Chasing the Wind” (2025). Now, this one’s a bit of a jump into the future, literally and thematically. The film dives into the relentless pursuit of dreams—sometimes noble, sometimes totally reckless. There’s a sense of restlessness, like the characters are always one step away from catching what they're after, but also maybe missing what’s right in front of them. It’s a wild metaphor, but Kirici doesn’t shy away from those. And let’s not skip “Cep Herkülü: Naim Süleymanoglu” (2019). This biopic packs a punch, focusing on the legendary Turkish weightlifter Naim Süleymanoglu. Kirici helps bring out the raw grit and insane determination it takes to become a national hero. You feel the pressure, the sacrifices, and those electric moments when the whole world seems to hold its breath. It’s not just sports drama—it’s about fighting for identity and respect, even when the odds are stacked sky high.
