Medusa

After another lousy date, young feminist Merve, seeks shelter at the local afro-hair salon where her best friend Bea works. Tired, she listens to the stories of various assaults until she finds herself detached in a completely different space. Together with Bea, she transcends in a dance choreographed by Medusa, who is trying to share a message with them. But before she is able to understand, she is pulled back. Her friends confront her: isn't she lonely after all? When even Bea expresses her worrisome, Merve's rage breaks out. Helplessly, she flees back to the mental space, but there is nothing there but pain and rage. Speechless, the best friends look at each other, only this time for real.
