Asya, a young girl with a strict mother, meets Ilyas who is a womanizing city man and they quickly fall in love. They overcome some hardships and have a quick and seemingly happy marriage.

Afterwards, Asya takes her son and also leaves without knowing where she is heading, until a familiar hand reaches out to her selflessly.

During the two-day opening of the Mongolian pavilion, over 5000 people visited and to date, over 16,000 visitors have passed through. The Mongolian pavilion has already received a great deal of coverage. A variety of international broadcasting agencies noted that this was the first time Mongolia was participating in the Venice Biennale (approx. 300 references) and about 30 articles have been written about the Mongolian pavilion. The international magazine ‘Art Radar’ selected Mongolia’s pavilion as one of the best out of all participants from Asia, Africa and the Middle East, and ‘Art Review Asia’ highlighted Mongolia as one of the top 10 Asian pavilions at the Venice Biennale. ‘Culture 360’, a famous online magazine, highlighted Mongolia’s pavilion at the top of their coverage among all the 89 national pavilions. Even though this is the first time Mongolia has participated, the quality of the Mongolian artists is clear to all. The Mongolian pavilion is on the 2nd floor of the Palazzo Mora (European Culture Center) on Strada Nuovo, Venice, Italy, located just next to the Philippine pavilion. The pavilion will display artworks of Mongolian artists E.Unen and T.Enkhbold for 7 months. It is interesting to note that the Philippine pavilion is showing a movie about ‘Chinggis Khaan’ that was made 51 years ago and caused a stir at the Hollywood and Venice film festivals at the time. The current Mongolian pavilion reveals the alienation of human-beings from nature and explores issues of modern-day mobility in the era of globalization. In addition, T.Enkhbold is presenting a month-long contemporary performance in the public areas of Venice, involving a self-made Mongol Ger (yurt). Pavilion curator Ts.Uranchimeg has written that ‘Venice was first built by mainland residents fleeing nomadic invasions, including Attila and the Huns in the 5th century. Centuries later, the Venetian merchant Marco Polo (1254– 1324) traveled to the Mongol Empire, where he spent 16 years at Khubilai Khaan’s (1215-1294) court.’ Building upon the historic legacy of Venice’s relationship with nomads and Mongols, the Mongolian artist is “nomadizing” in Venice, interacting with Venetians and visitors. Another Mongolian artist J.Munkh- tsetseg participated in the Personal Structures International exhibition with her solo show as part of a collateral event with Venice Biennale. Artist S.Ganzug revealed his performance art at the UNESCO pavilion hosted by the NGO Land Art of Mongolia. A big light board promoting the Mongolian Pavilion welcomes visitors at Marco Polo International Airport. Mongolian Contemporary Arts Support Association organized this project with the support of Ulaanbaatar Mayor E.Bat- Uul. The sponsors are Mon-Uran, Altai Construction, Eco Construction, Onch Deloitte Audit, Tuushin, Max Group, Turkish Airlines, Petrovis, Khas Bank, Steppe Link, Munkhiin Useg, Terrazo Lounge, Otgon Holding and Tuguldur Foundation, Ard Holding and other individuals.

Five Minarets in New York, Director MahsunKirmizigül, Feature 116’ (Hall 4) Two Turkish anti-terrorist agents are sent to New York City on a mission to find and bring back the dangerous Isla- mic leader code-named Dajjal. Working with the FBI and NYPD, the agents orchestrate the arrest of Hadji Gumus, a well-respected Muslim scholar and family man, who years before had fled to the United States after being released from a Turkish prison, where he was serving time for murder. This tale of love, friendship, peace and prejudice, takes us on a journey seeking to answer the question of whether innocence or guilt matters to one who lusts for vengeance. Love Loves Coincidences, Director Ömer Faruk Sorak, Feature117’(Hall 4) The Year is 1977, a September morning in Ankara. Yilmaz is rushing his pregnant wife Neriman to the hospital and crashes into Omer’s car. As a result, Omer’s pregnant wife, Inci, goes into labor early, causing the babies to be born on the same day. The accident sparks a series of coincidences that bring the children Ozgur and Deniz together. They come across each other in Ankara several times during their childhood and youth. Each intersection has a butterfly effect, resulting in drastic changes in their lives. They become each other’s puppy love or first heartbreak. But beyond this, each confluence changes not only theirs, but also their families’ life. However, they can never really get together until they come across each other again in Istanbul, 25 years later. Please enjoy Turkish Culture Days and Film Showcase.
