The premiere of ‘The Killing Secret’ will take place at the Kyrenia Municipality Chamber Theatre on Thursday, February 29th. Oya Holy, one of the film producers, described the movie as a detective murder story that follows a series of deaths investigated by the police, a journalist, and a famous ceramicist. The film features amateur actors who are known faces in Kyrenia.
Despite challenges with technical infrastructure and sponsorship due to the lack of a cinema industry in the country, the filmmakers dedicated themselves to creating the film. Sinan Gürzap, a well-known figure in Kyrenia, plays a mysterious ceramic artist in the movie and emphasized the importance of supporting the local cinema industry to turn it into a thriving sector.
Tuğçehan Ören, another member of the production team, highlighted the difficulties faced during filming, such as time constraints and limited equipment and technical resources. She stressed the importance of sponsorship, press coverage, and public support for the film industry in the country.
‘The Killing Secret’ will be shown in cinemas after its premiere, providing audiences with a unique glimpse into the emerging film scene in Northern Cyprus. Support from the state and local communities is crucial in nurturing and growing the cinema industry in the region.
