Quotes

Serkan Aktas

  • The best movie is one that can be watched over and over again.
  • I want people to experience the same joy and wonder that cinema brings me.
  • Read every day, watch every day, write every day, and then make your movie.
  • With my intellectual perspective and filmmaker identity, I strive to find solutions to the world's unsolved real-world problems or contribute to those solutions through making movies. That's what I do.
  • What does it mean to be human? How do we balance curiosity with caution? What lies beyond the limits of what we know?
  • My background in business taught me to plan meticulously, while mathematics revealed the hidden patterns of existence-both of which now form the backbone of my filmmaking.
  • The Academy taught me that cinema isn't just a profession-it's a way of life. It provided me with the tools I needed to bring my vision to life.
  • I use technical elements like metaphors, camera angles, and visual motifs to support and elevate the emotional arc of my story.
  • Cinema is where logic meets imagination.
  • Writing allows me to explore ideas that I later bring to life on screen. My books are expanded versions of my screenplays, giving audiences a deeper look at the philosophies that drive my films.
  • At one point, I seriously considered postponing the film or even abandoning it. The uncertainty and tight budget made everything nearly impossible, yet we pushed forward with a guerrilla-style approach.
  • I see the world through a lens of infinite possibility-each story a reflection of a greater cosmic design.
  • The directors who have had the biggest impact on my creative vision have shown me the power of visuals to convey meaning and emotion without words.
  • To achieve the difficult is hard, but to achieve the impossible is harder.
