The short documentary film "Aman Delivery", in which the problems of package service employees are told, made it to the finals in the 27th IFSAK Short Film Festival. The director of the film Asst. Prof. Dr. Emrah Tüncer said: “We tried to explain the problems and working conditions of individuals working in the service sector through the motto of ‘speed and uncertainty’”.
The preliminaries for the 27th IFSAK Short Film Festival have been announced. Among the 374 films that applied to the competition, 47 films determined by the pre-jury will meet with the audience within the scope of the festival until March 14 in the titles of fiction, documentary, experimental and animation.
The short documentary "Aman Delivery", which was scripted and directed by Asst. Prof. Dr. Emrah Tüncer from the Social Service Department of Istanbul Gelisim University (IGU), was among 47 films. Stating that the majority of those who do delivery service work are made up of insecure immigrants and want to draw attention to the discrimination they face, Tüncer said: “We recorded this situation with participatory observation and turned it into a documentary, and in this way we tried to explain the problems and working conditions of individuals working in the service sector through the motto of ‘speed and uncertainty’".
The winners of the competition films that have passed the pre-selection will be announced on the last day of the festival.
