Nest

Directed by Fahriye Pas

Filiz (36), who is in the process of getting divorced, visits real estate agents one after another in search of a home near her daughter Ece’s (14) school in order to establish a new life with her. As the date of the custody hearing approaches, it is a necessity for Filiz to establish a new home where she can live peacefully with her daughter. When they come to view a small apartment located on the ground floor of an old apartment building that has been overlooked by urban transformation, the landlord is hesitant to rent the apartment to a divorced woman. As the argument escalates, Filiz and Ece rescue a cat trapped in the ventilation shaft; although they do not yet have a home, they now have a cat.
