12 minutes that'll wreck your whole evening — in the best way.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Turkish short cinema rarely breaks globally; Durlu's 2012 gem remains criminally underseen outside festival circuits.
The runtime itself becomes thematic — 12 minutes mirrors how quickly a gathering dissolves once someone's gone for good.
