SUMMARY:Film Screening: Kodokushi by Ensar Altay
DESCRIPTION:🎬 Join Us for the Opening of the 2025 Film Screening Series! 🎬 \n📍 10 Maple Street\, W1T 5HA\n🗓 11 April 2025 | 7 PM(Film starts promptly at 7 PM)\n🎞 Exclusive Screening: “Kodokushi” (w/ English subtitles) \nThe opening event of our 2025 Film Screening Series\, featuring an exclusive presentation of the acclaimed documentary “Kodokushi”. \nJoin us at Yunus Emre Enstitüsü – London on 11 April 2025\, at 7 PM\, for the opening event of our 2025 Film Screening Series\, featuring an exclusive presentation of the acclaimed documentary “Kodokushi” directed by Ensar Altay. \nKODOKUSHI Directed by Ensar Altay Turkey\, 2020 Documentary\, 88 minutes \n“Kodokushi” provides a compelling and intimate glimpse into the growing phenomenon of isolated deaths in contemporary society. Norihito\, who works at a company tasked with cleaning the homes of those who have died unnoticed\, becomes profoundly impacted by the loneliness and forgotten lives he encounters daily. These experiences provoke a deep reflection on his own existence\, relationships\, and past choices\, pushing him to grapple with profound questions about human connectivity and isolation. \nInterwoven with Norihito’s introspective journey is the story of elderly Muramatsu\, who finds himself increasingly disconnected from society and struggling to rediscover a meaningful reason to continue his life. Through the interlacing of these deeply personal narratives\, the documentary delicately highlights the universal need for companionship\, compassion\, and understanding in a rapidly changing world. \nThis powerful documentary blends sensitive storytelling with striking cinematography\, capturing the emotional and societal dimensions of solitude. “Kodokushi” invites viewers not only to witness but also to thoughtfully engage with the silent epidemic of loneliness that affects many communities globally. \n   \n\n\nAbout the Director:\nBorn in Türkiye\, Ensar Altay pursued his education at the London Film Academy. Between 2012 and 2020\, he dedicated himself to creating television documentaries spanning diverse nations for various TV channels. His notable contribution includes the release of his first feature documentary\, “Kodokushi\,” a film that sheds light on the phenomenon of lonely deaths in Japan. \n\n\n\n\nIMPORTANT NOTES\nPlease be advised that filming and/or photography will be taking place at the event for the purposes of archiving\, marketing\, and all other publications.

SUMMARY:Concert: A Journey Through Time with the Oboe | Damla Tuncer
DESCRIPTION:Join us on 30 April 2025 at 7 PM at Yunus Emre Enstitüsü – London for an inspiring musical evening with internationally acclaimed oboist Damla Tuncer\, as she takes the audience on a journey through centuries of music—from the refined melodies of the Renaissance to the vibrant energy of jazz\, tango\, and the contemplative tones of Turkish classical music—brought to life through the expressive voice of the oboe. \nOrganised by Yunus Emre Enstitüsü – London\, A Journey Through Time with the Oboe is a one-hour interactive concert offering an enriching experience that blends performance with reflection. Each piece will be accompanied by brief commentary\, offering cultural and historical context to guide the listening experience. \nThe evening opens with Damla Tuncer sharing her personal path in music—her early decision to become a musician\, her training across Europe\, and the evolving role of the oboist in both Western and Turkish traditions. She will also give a short introduction to the oboe itself\, highlighting its tonal richness and emotional range. \nThe repertoire features a carefully selected programme of works by John Dowland\, Mozart\, Tchaikovsky\, Rimsky-Korsakov\, Scott Joplin\, Astor Piazzolla\, Ekrem Zeki Ün\, and Ennio Morricone\, offering a rare chance to hear the oboe across genres\, styles\, and eras. \nThe concert will conclude with an audience Q&A\, inviting reflections on music\, memory\, and the connections we form through sound. \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor more information on the event\, please email us at londra@yee.org.tr \nIMPORTANT NOTES\nPlease be advised that filming and/or photography will be taking place at the event for the purposes of archiving\, marketing\, and all other publications.
