About this event
A 12-year-old girl named Gül becomes possessed by Satan after experimenting with a Ouija board. As her condition worsens and medical explanations fail, her desperate mother turns to a psychiatrist and an experienced exorcist, who join forces in an attempt to save the girl through a dangerous ritual. As an unofficial Turkish adaptation of The Exorcist, the film closely mirrors the broad structure of William Friedkin's original while relocating the story to contemporary Turkey. Despite its modest production, it has become a cult curiosity for its earnest reinterpretation of a landmark horror film within the context of 1970s Turkish genre cinema
