Keepers of the Magical Lantern
Yesilcam is the name of passionate loves, loves, hopes, dreams, warm friendships, unity and togetherness. Yesilcam is the name of the screenwriters whose lives are constantly written, the directors who live between the light and the dark, the stars who shine light on the lives they touch and the films that live in the back streets of Beyoglu, where we are sometimes, we are crying, sometimes we are happy, laughing. In Yesilcam cinema there are people whose names we do not know, whose faces we cannot remember, or even who we do not know at all. They are the Hidden Heroes of our cinema who stir up the white curtain with the light of the magic lantern in their dream castles, the veteran film machinists who have given years to Turkish cinema between the four walls.
