Aunty
Teyze
2013
Synopsis
An old lady wearing her swimsuit, has to prove to herself that she can use the diving board to get into the pool.
Editorial
It takes little more than a single character’s reflections by the pool for director Fulya Tokaoğlu to evoke the deep emotional complexities surrounding body image and the curiosities of aging. Brilliantly minimalistic, Aunty is an exquisitely crafted hand-drawn animation that shimmers with nuance.
