Directed by Metin Erksan

The bed shudders, the girl snarls in a voice that isn't hers, and an upper-class Istanbul home becomes a battlefield. Twelve-year-old Gül played with a ouija board, and something answered. Her mother burns through doctors and diagnoses until a psychiatrist wrestling with his own doubts and a seasoned exorcist agree to step into that bedroom. Metin Erksan stages Turkish domestic horror with dry, unvarnished force: convulsions, ritual, screaming, and faith stretched to breaking point across a long, punishing night.
