Boğaç Aksoy, who played the character of Adem in the film written and directed by Volkan Karataş, made statements about his recovery process after the screening.
Aksoy said, "It was a magnificent experience for me to play the younger version of master artist Halil Ergün in the film and to be on the same set as him. I portrayed an explorer conducting research to regreen the world during a period when almost all of the world's soil had dried up and the earth's crust had changed shape."
'THE GOAL OF REGREENING NATURE MOTIVATED ME'
Continuing his words, Aksoy stated, "One of the most important things I can share about the film is that I was in the second stage of cancer while the filming was taking place, and I was also in the treatment process. The film 'Mutlak' became a project that I took part in with the intention of healing and with intense emotions, simultaneously with its subject matter.
Our goal of regreening nature also provided motivation for my recovery process," he said.
