the lost clown

The film portrays the formerly successful and award-winning actor Oktay Özdemir, who now lives on the streets in poverty due to his addiction, but has nevertheless retained his sense of humor. It shows a day in his everyday life, how he gets up in the morning, begs for a coffee and then begins his hunt for money, with which he gets the drug that briefly gives him a moment of peace. The film begins with a dream of being a circus artist. This is Oktay's artistic home. He trained in the circus as a child and was discovered for film there, where he later made a career.

At the end he meets the young people who remind him that he once stood in the spotlight of the stage. We tell the part of the capsule hunt in a silent film aesthetic based on Charlie Chaplin's Tramp, who also embodies the life of the penniless man with a lot of humor and charm. The sounds from a computer game symbolize the dopamine rush that the Lost Clown experiences as he receives a few coins that bring him closer to his goal of obtaining the drug. The Lost Clown is told from the subjective point of view of the actor, without being judgmental.
