CGiii Comment

Sometimes...rarely, a film - unexpectedly - presents itself, without warning, that will move you to the core.

This is the very essence of film-making.

Special credit must go to Paolo Poti...for an exceptional soundtrack.

Karem Can...just dance.

Ahmet...rest in peace.

Watch it - you'll understand.


Trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

A feature film about an unusual trio: Daniel, a German photo-journalist in Istanbul without much knowledge about Turkish values. Can, a flamboyant, out and proud male belly dancer with lots of love and support from his family, and Ahmet born to an eastern and conservative family whose quest for honesty and liberty results in a tragic end. ZENNE Dancer is inspired by true stories.
