If Only There Were Peace Co-Directed with Deniz Tortum 30 mins 2017
"A documentary about making a narrative film, with structural debts to Kiarostami and Panahi’s meta-textual refractions of tragedy and/or filmmaking... Greased along by the playful skill with which scenes are repeatedly recontextualized, If Only There Were Peace builds to a self-indictment of its own practical uselessness." Vadim Rizov, Filmmaker Magazine.
"An original and multi-layered exploration of power relations, identity and performance that allows us to reflect upon the function of cinema as a social and cultural tool." DokuFest Jury Statement Winner, Best Short Documentary
