Festival [fjúžn]

Director: Serkan Nihat

After Turkey's 2016 coup attempt, three professionals accused of terrorism join migrants fleeing the country. Different backgrounds unite in their search for safety and freedom. This is the story of persecuted people from different backgrounds who are forced to say goodbye to their loved ones and country in order to find safe refuge.

Serkan is an award-winning London-based filmmaker working in the British TV & Film industry. He is a technically competent director, experienced at manipulating cameras, lenses and lighting to create strong visual images which aids him within the visceral world of fashion and beauty. Born in Edmonton, North London Serkan’s introduction to cinema was from the Yesilcam silver age of Turkish cinema. Having begun in post-production Serkan was one of foremost assistant editors in the UK having worked on every major UK drama from Spooks, Call the Midwife, Broadchurch, and Taboo. Serkan also oversaw the very first fully tapeless workflow on a drama series (Law & Order). As an editor, he has specialised in editing drama trailers and TV spots and feature length documentaries. Since making the transition from editor to director, he has directed campaigns for many brands. In 2018 he won the Cannes Silver Dolphin award and in 2019 was a finalist in the Creative pool industry awards. In 2019 he was awarded an Evcom Award for a Vogue campaign and has since won another three EVCOM awards. His short film ‘Apex’ starring Charlotte Riley (Peaky Blinders) and Tom Weston Jones (Dickensian) won the Cannes Short Film Competition with ‘Best film’ and ‘Audience Award.’ He directed the comedy drama pilot 'Wake Me Up' starring Charlotte Riley, T'Nia Miller (The Peripheral) and Nick Helm (Uncle). He has just completed his debut feature film ‘Exodus’ which will be released in 2025.
