Lonely Places Around a City
By: Cihan Aydın
A few times ago there has been a film criticism workshop in İstanbul. There Fuat Ercan who is a substantial instructor on the subject of development economics, made an interesting presentation to endeavor associating the relations between capitalism, art, film theory, social reality and human nature, These workshops will be continued periodically and one of the next subjects is city and loneliness. So all the films below had been put together for this specific theme. When I created the list I only purposed to make a contribution to the study by reminding related films of my favorite film-makers. I tried to chose only one film of each director.
