Wie die Nelken

Graphic Design

'Wie die Nelken' is a late coming-of-age film that deals with the topics of racism, age discrimination and sexuality. The film by director Emine Demir is about two generations of queer women of color, Sherin and her aunt Seriya. While Sherin lives out her pansexuality openly in her circle of friends, Seriya keeps her queerness a guarded secret. Both are more similar than they think, but social heteronormative ideas force them both into a situation where they have to hide their sexual identity from each other.
