Always a pleasure to meet this beautiful person. The pleasure intensifies with delicious food and deep fried conversation. Can’t wait to make my way to the first half of his postcode again. #n1 #greatblighty #ohbeautifulbritain (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmXHZicrexH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A poetic look back to the 1990s, one's childhood, and relationships with parents. I don't know whether because I had the exact same holiday with my father just after my parents divorced, in the summer of 1990 when the World Cup in Italy was on, but this film had a profound effect on me. I think it owes this to the masterful directing of Charlotte Wells, the exquisitely natural acting of Corio and Mescal and the impeccably graceful production design of our precious Billur Turan.

July 15th, 2008. Queen Elizabeth II came to Istanbul. She was 82 years old (I was born in 1982, a happy coincidence). We met at the Istanbul Modern Museum. She extended her hand, and I shook it. She asked some questions about university education in Turkey. She was graceful and curious. It was an ethereal moment. What I did not know back then was that I would emigrate to the UK with @curgen, who I have not even met yet. Inception? We would start to live and work in one of the small towns in the East Midlands. We would take one of our bins out every Thursday. We would order pints and G&Ts in pubs and watch Liverpool games. We would say "Blimey!" every once in a while. We would be in the UK, partially integrated, when she passed away. I would occasionally dream about becoming a sir.
