Clair Obscur (2017)

In the quaint outskirts of bustling Istanbul, a young, dynamic psychiatrist named Sehnaz finds herself ensnared by duty in a provincial town. Her weekdays are consumed with the town's needs, yet her heart retreats to her polished life in the city during the weekends. She shares this life with her charismatic husband, Cem, their union seemingly flawless to the untrained eye. Yet, a gnawing sense of unease perpetually lingers beneath the surface, the couple's perfectly manicured façade masking an elusive disquiet. This tale of entwining lives takes an unexpected turn when Elmas, a young woman teetering on the brink of sanity, is brought into the sleepy town's hospital. The relationship between the two women develops into an unexpected alliance that ushers Sehnaz through a previously unopened door of self-discovery. As Sehnaz attempts to untangle the complex knots of Elmas's psyche, she is unwittingly led to confront her own concealed turmoil. From the visionary lens of Yesim Ustaoglu, one of the leading female directors in modern cinema, comes her fifth feature film, 'Clair Obscur'. This evocative narrative weaves together the threads of two seemingly disparate lives, culminating in a dramatic exploration of inner turmoil and the quest for self-understanding.
