In a series of Eye on Art specials, filmmakers, photographers, and notable Turkish-Dutch figures will also share their reflections on Ceylan's work and its impact across various Turkish communities.

Ceylan, who won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival for “Winter Sleep,” is also known for his acclaimed films including “The Small Town” (1997), “Clouds of May” (1999), “Distant” (2002), “Climates” (2006), “Three Monkeys” (2008), “Once Upon a Time in Anatolia” (2011) and “About Dry Grasses” (2023).
