Confidante

2025 · 76 min

A quiet, claustrophobic chamber piece that builds dread through voices on the line and the weight of a distant catastrophe.

Overview: Ankara, 1999. Arzu takes one call after another in the sex call centre where she works. When an earthquake hits Istanbul, a young client she spoke to earlier phones her back, begging her to rescue him from the rubble.
How it feels: Tense, melancholic, dark and earnest. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
About: Isolation, death, survival, work
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
