Stendhal short film directed by Berk Köse and Ferit Doğan, fourth year students of Istanbul Gelişim University (IGU), Faculty of Fine Arts (FFA), Radio, Television and Cinema Department, won the best trailer award at the TMFF (The Monthly Film Festival) held in Scotland.

The short film project Stendhal, written and directed by Berk Köse and Ferit Doğan, fourth year students of the Radio, Television and Cinema Department, and in which Beyza Sude Yüksel, Buğra Cihan Çakır and İsmail Akbal are in the film crew, continues its successful festival journey.

The film, which is about what happened to Gökhan, who invited his girlfriend Selin to a dinner, focused on the effect of a work of art escalating the tension between the couple and disrupting the perception of time. Stendhal, a film with high tension and excitement, won an award at the TMFF with a one-minute trailer that directly reflects the tension and excitement.

The film, which won the best trailer award at The Monthly Film Festival in Scotland, confronts its characters with their desires, passions and fears. Explaining this as a special choice, Ferit Doğan, one of the screenwriters and directors of the film, underlines that as you explore human nature, storytelling becomes much more enjoyable.

Journey of Success

Stendhal, who started his festival journey by receiving an honorable mention from the Student World Impact Film Festival, was also entitled to an honorable mention in the best horror film category at the BR Banshee Festival, also known as the horror film festival, held in Rio De Jenerio in Brazil. Crowning his successful journey with the best trailer award in Scotland, Stendhal's festival journey continues.

We congratulate our students and wish them continued success.
