Shanghai International Film Festival Turkish director Reis Çelik unveiled “Night of Blindness,” a Turkish-German co-production set during Turkey’s 1980 military coup, at the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival. The film is competing for the Golden Goblet Award in the main competition section.
The film centers on Fatma, a left-wing activist who goes into hiding in a cramped space between wooden planks at a construction site and must rely on a group of workers she has never met to evade capture. Çelik, who drew from personal experience in shaping the story, chose to place a woman at the center of the drama.
