The Escape from “Human Rights in Cinema Competition” was screened at Atlas Sineması with the participation of the director Kenan Kavut and the film crew. Kavut said: “Our purpose was to be sensitive about this subject; rough violence seems repugnant to me. I thought about how this violence would evolve. This is the problem with those who don’t experience war, actually. Aliye (Jale Arıkan) is a lonely and hurt character. With the character of the man who collects frogs (Ali Suliman), I wanted to portray the trauma of someone who escapes to another place. He was actually a delusion that the character created in his mind; he didn’t actually exist.”
