  The Pharmacist 2020

  ★★★ Watched 12 May 2021

  A solid Netflix documentary consisting of incompetent institutions, evil corporations and one ‘motivated’ guy who actually makes a difference. I really liked the objective narrative but the first 1.5 episodes and the rest were almost like two separate documentaries. The stories could have been connected better imho.

  Something Useful 2017

  ★★★★½ Watched 24 Apr 2020

  I think the best way to describe this movie is to quote the director Pelin Esmer. Here is my attempt to translate it:

  “What prompted me to make this film is the irregularity of the poetry, the freedom it provides to juxtapose the words which normally should not be put side by side. Poetry encourages you to focus on how it makes you feel rather than trying to make a sense out of it. I can’t write poetry so I thought let’s make a movie that at least resembles poetry.”
