Carnations make up around 60 percent of the cut flowers grown in Turkey and rank as the country’s
leading flower export. For some, red, white, yellow, pink or variegated carnations are a message of
heartbreak; for others, the flowers mean heartbreaking labour. Such is the case for immigrant workers
employed in the glasshouses of Kumköy-Çiçekli in the Antalya region of south Turkey... Carnation seeks
to give voice to the hardship and injustice suffered by immigrant workers by revealing the despair,
poverty, deprivation of their predicament and the lack of awareness surrounding it.
Sıla Özsoy (Sivas, 1987) is studying at the Department of Radio, Television & Cinema at Akdeniz University.

strength of values and taboos that we cannot question.

Freedom is a notion charged with different opinions and connotations whose interpretation varies
from one person to the next. By presenting the thoughts and way of life of prison inmates, the film
helps us to question the freedom concept in our own minds. ‘Insiders’ are in prison because they were
‘outsiders’ throughout their lives. In other words, they actually fall outside the general paradigm. In a
way, they are no different from us. Who is the outsider? Us or them?
