Istanbul: Chronopolis is an experimental documentary that explores the city as a living organism where the linear flow of time is disrupted and the past and future coexist. Structured around a thematic cycle of birth, speed, and decay, the film uses rhythmic visuals and archival footage to bridge temporal gaps. Through a fourteen-minute mathematical edit, it replaces linguistic narrative with the evocative language of time-lapse and slow-motion cinematography. The project invites the audience to transcend chronological time and experience Istanbul as an eternal moment—an entity existing solely within its own timeless cycle.

Tourists eating and taking photos. Tourists strolling and taking photos. Tourists bathing on the beach and taking more photos. Barcelona has become an overexploited photocall to the point of paroxysm, and this is what this film shows by turning the camera and pointing towards the visitors.

In the heart of the city of Buenos Aires, amongst the grey of the cement and the noisiness of the cars and buses, everyone seems to look down. Even the cameras put there to watch the people’s every move. But, what happens if we finally decide to look up? What’s coming after the clouds?
A city that's a canvas for dreams and a battleground for survival, offering a price for legacy with no guarantees.
