Plaza

About This Movie

Plaza (2020) unfolds in a hauntingly empty space, where Emre navigates his life as a security guard in a desolate plaza. The film has this slow, almost suffocating pace that mirrors Emre's own stagnation, which is quite compelling. It explores themes of isolation and the struggle for identity, capturing the weight of unmet expectations. The ambience is chilly yet reflective, and you can really feel the oppressive atmosphere as he spends those long hours in this forgotten structure. The performances are understated but effective, pulling you deeper into Emre's world. It’s a distinct piece that relies on subtlety rather than grand gestures, making the moments of quiet contemplation all the more impactful.
