KOMŞUKINO

Project coordinator Esra Akkaya

KOMŞUKINO is the neighbourhood cinema by SİNEMA TRANSTOPIA taking place once a month. Each event includes social gatherings in our courtyard, accompanied by local food and çay, followed by screenings of classics of Turkish and Kurdish cinema. Conversation is central to these neighbourhood screenings, and discussions will take place before and after the films. Thus, KOMŞUKINO will transform SİNEMA into an agora: a place where we can exchange knowledge and experience. Admission is free, including çay, and children are welcome.
