“Zhivkov’s forced name change campaign also represented symbolic destruction. We were first de-identified, then we had to construct a new identity.” Salyangoz_trailer from laylafilm on Vimeo. The film consists of my dialogues with my grandmother Halime, who passed away last year. It focuses on my grandmother's memories from the 1980s to the present. Taking home, belonging, family and identity at its centre, Kompil Mancasi aims to shed light on the story of people who carry their homes on their backs and reflect the intergenerational effects of migration trauma. Based on the shootings I have done for about 10 years, Kompil Mancasi is set in Benkovski district and villages of Kircaali and Bursa. Archival materials and family albums accompany my 10-year shoot. The film, in which I am the main character of the film together with my grandmother, will be a participatory documentary with its biographical and auto-biographical features.
