Hello Stage 32 Filmmaking Community
This artwork carries a piece of my true life story.
It is a memory of my father, a strong, respected man and a dedicated karate master.
Every time I create, I feel his spirit with me.
I am now working with all my heart to bring my short film, based on my real story, to life.
Sometimes I wonder… do I look like him?
Creating is not just art for me, it is the way I keep my truth alive.
Thank you, Stage 32 community, for giving creators like me a place to share our truth and our art.
This platform helps me keep my creative spirit alive and believe that my story can reach hearts.
I truly appreciate every person here who shares, supports, and inspires.
With love and gratitude
Ilay Yilmaz

People used to say I looked so much like my father.
Every time I create, I feel his strength and spirit beside me.
Do I still look like him?
