Neşet Günal’s Earth Men

“The Earth Men is the first attempt of its kind. An intriguing example of transforming the art of painting into cinema. The result of a long and meticulous effort. A different approach to the world of painting. A concrete example of achieving mastery on the edge of impossibilities. A striking document of the dominance of cinematic art over painting. An enthusiastic act that unites in the emphasis on the smallest details. The figures, which acquire the persona of “actors,” are impressive. Şekeroğlu is more sensitive and dynamic than I am. I was deeply moved.”
(Neşet Günal, The Earth Men Film Promotion Brochure, 1982)

Director: Sami Şekeroğlu
1982

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to the Şekeroğlu family, especially dear Ayşe Demirel and Turgut Şekeroğlu, for making the publication of this film possible. We are also grateful to Tankut Kılınç, Ayben Altunç, Halil Can Akbulut, and Zeynep Günal from the Günal family for their support throughout this process.
