A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Birthplace:
Ankara, Turkey
Nazlı Dinçel’s work reflects on experiences of disruption. They record the body in context with arousal, immigration, dislocation and desire in juxtaposition with the medium’s material: texture, color and the passing of emulsion. Their use of text as image, language and sound attempts the failure of memory and their own displacement within a western society. Born in Ankara, Turkey, Nazlı Dinçel came as an immigrant to the United States at the age of 17. Their works have been exhibited in numerous solo and programmed screenings around the world including Tiger Shorts competition at IFFR, Museum of Moving Image, Edinburgh International Film Festival and Dallas Contemporary Art Museum. They won the title for Best Experimental Film at the Chicago Underground Film Festival in 2015 with Her Silent Seaming (2014).

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
