A 13 year old boy's vision of family breakdown and fragmentation. The three members of the household, Mother, Father and Child, are in a constant state of unfulfilled expectation. All this is expressed in the words of the child through a pen that the father buys for the child.
Two different persons who have hopelessly given up on life and the world for different reasons are brought together by fate.
Certain Emotions (Belli Başlı Duygular), a 2024 short film by Cem Kamil Dede, explores the inner thoughts of a 16-year-old boy grappling with existential questions. In just three minutes, the boy's monologue expresses a nihilistic view of life, love, and the fleeting nature of emotions. He challenges conventional ideas of happiness and relationships, revealing a deep sense of isolation. Shot with minimalist cinematography, the film's raw honesty and introspective tone capture the emotional struggles of adolescence, highlighting universal themes of alienation and disconnection in modern life.
