Luxury or Basic Need? Representation of Housing Crisis in Turkish Cinema in the Context of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs

Öz

People need food, housing, security, and self-actualization. To study human needs, Maslow grouped them by motivation. Maslow's hierarchy of needs helps scholars learn why people act to survive. In this study, growing living costs and the housing crisis in the local and global economic system make it impossible for people to meet their fundamental necessities, decreasing their quality of life. In this context, the main problem of the study is how the demand for shelter is elevated to higher levels in the hierarchy of needs, not only as a physiological necessity but also as a psychological, social, and symbolic requirement. This study uses Maslow's theory to evaluate how the housing crisis impacts basic needs and how individuals and society react to it, using Turkish film as an example. The study examines how housing, a basic need, and the housing crisis affect people and how Turkish cinema portrays them. In this study, analyzing the housing problem in Turkish cinema by combining it with Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory is important in revealing how cinema reflects social issues. Thus, the study enhances our understanding of the sociopsychological effects of the housing crisis on individuals by examining cinema, societal memory, and evolving perceptions of needs.
