Aksel Zeydan Göz (TR) | Mitfahrgelegenheit

SYNOPSIS

Mitfahrgelegenheit, which in German stands for Riding along Opportunity, is the animated story of a fictitious trip, through the setting of North Rhine-Westphalia. Playing in between animation and video footage, this ride along journey is considered to be more ‘a sketch of a film idea’ than a film itself. It was created during the Transfer, The International Art and Artist Exchange Program between Turkey and North Rhine-Westphalia and was exhibited in Museum Bochum and Santralistanbul.
