The film shows us the unknown faces of the TV world through a very popular show in Turkey called “Marriage with Esra Erol” that aims to marry people in front of the camera. It focuses on the people who are looking for a glimpse of hope in the hallways of a huge TV studio: a popular presenter who feels very much at ease on stage, but prays for good luck in the backstage; a director whispering in her earphone to guide her in order to make the show more exciting; a peculiar spectator whose job is to criticize; audience dancing and clapping when ordered; and a young man dancing to hip hop music without ever being in a disco all his life.
Born in 1980 in İzmir, graduated from Galatasaray University. While she was a student at the university, she made her documentary film “With Three Ears” (2003), which won the Best Documentary Award at the 2003 Golden Orange Film Festival. Later on she made her documentary “1 2 3 ZIP” (2006), with the support of the Turkish Ministry of Culture. In 2005, she attended Paris Sorbonne University to study film. She also worked as a producer and art director in the short film “Cat on the Road” (2007) – a film which received 11 awards.
