Metin Erksan - Sevmek zamani aka Time To Love (1965)

An obscure gem, a hidden treasure to international cinema lovers; "Sevmek Zamani" is one of the best movies in Turkish cinema history. This cult film still remains as a cinematic enigma for the new generation in Turkey. Praised for its B&W cinematograhpy and regarded as a masterpiece, film follows the aesthetic tradition of Antoninoni. Also resembles some of Bela Tarr's works with its visual sensibility; "Sevmek Zamani" is an eclectic mixture of modernist themes (i.e. individual loneliness), metaphysics (the fight of good vs evil), and notions of Marxism like director's some other works. Metin Erksan is one of the first Turkish filmmakers who saw cinema as an art form apart from a mass entertaining medium.

User Review fom Imdb:
A Paradoxical Presentation of Realism and Mysticism!
Erksan's Sevmek Zamani expresses its story in a two-folded plane.First, a strict realism in the search for specific (but global at the same time) identity problem of Turkish people is investigated: Occident or Orient, the chaotic battle of these two different identity-construction choices. Second, through this separation, the movie shows us two perceptions of LOVE: An urbanized, modern female singer(Sema Ozcan) wanting to be with the guy (Musfik Kenter)who is in love with her poster on the one hand. On the other, the (Oriental) guy refusing this famous singer. The guy says:"I'm in love only and only with your poster". The fetish and the sublime! That Love turns to be some kind of Sufistic way of perceiving the world. The Magnificient scene of boat-tripping with the poster must be seen!

Metin Erksan - Susuz yaz aka Dry Summer (1964)

Description: “Dry Summer is a film of passion. A passion for water as well as the obsessive passion created by forbidden love. Who does water belong to? Can anyone actually own this fundamental life element, “the blood of the earth” as the director describes it? Here is a film that, in the 45 years since it was made, has lost none of its universal qualities, none of its relevance, particularly today when wars and rebellions are waged because of droughts. Dry Summer is an important piece of cinema because it is unlike any other film made at the time and its narrative is strikingly original.

Dry Summer is a take on the Cain and Abel story… It is a contemporary version of the tragedy that scarred humanity thousands of years ago. And another version of the film’s story was to unfold in real life simply because the film was made. Dry Summer is a film of captivity…

Authorities at the time objected to Dry Summer representing Turkey overseas, which presented all kinds of obstacles when the film came to the Berlin Film Festival. The film walked away with the Golden Bear, but before success could even be celebrated it was ‘taken captive’ and completely forgotten for the next 45 years. Today, in these times of intellectually dry summers, when greed is driving humanity to the brink of starvation, this film could hardly be more valid. Dry Summer is one of the most important legacies of Turkish cinema, and thanks to restoration it can be re-discovered by the next generations of audiences all over the world.”
