Cinematic Geography of the Countryside, Childhood, and Nostalgia: Remembering Ahmet Uluçay in the Age of Oblivion

Öz

This article focuses on the experiences of Anatolia’s childhood, province and cinema through the life of Turkish film-maker Ahmet Uluçay who was born, grow up in a province and died there at 55 age in 2009 and through his only feature film Boats Out of Watermelon Rinds (2004). The story of two children who want to make cinema is narrated in the film that is Uluçay’s autobiographical work. According to the narrative, childhood is full of both the purest dreams and the deepest disappointments of human memory. As for the province, it is simultaneously the spatial equivalent of escape and being isolated. Ahmet Uluçay is a turning point of the New Turkish Cinema that highlights low-budget and minimalist human stories, so much so that, although he does not have many films, has been shown as a lecture in cinema schools in the country. Stories, characters, values and language in Uluçay’s works are nourished entirely from his own geography. Despite this, there are no sufficient foreign-language academic papers on it. This study, which on the one hand tries to meet the deficit, on the other hand, seeks an answer to the question of how cinema, childhood, memory and province construct each other.
