Deniz Şimşek
A defining childhood experience gets the mind going and poses the question: How does memory work? At home, the TV was on all the time. A sentence overheard on TV leads to a gender experience in the school playground, with unexpected consequences. A departure point for a lot of things to come, such as anger. Or is it? Memory follows its own routes.
